Even after the Iran-Israeli fighting a fierce form of the fight, the prices of gold remains softened. This is a shocking thing.

Stability in gold even after Iran-Israel’s fighting increased
Ajay Kedia of Kedia Advisory said that in the last 10-20 years we have seen many battles in the Middle East. If we talk about the Israel-Iran fight continued for 7 days, then gold was seen on the first day of the fight. However, despite the increase in geopolitical tension, gold has shown softening. This means that the fight between Iran-Israel has affected the prices of gold.
Prices can go up to $ 2400
Gold reached $ 3,500 an ounce in the international market in late April. This is the all -time high price of gold. Since then, there has been pressure on gold. Kedia said that in the next 1-2 months, gold may see a decline of 8–10 per cent. If the battle between Iran and Israel ends soon, the gold can fall to $ 2,400.
What do you have to do if gold slipped?
The question is, what should you do if there is a big decline in gold? Experts say that the purpose of investment in gold is the diversification of portfolio instead of returns. Gold works to balance it when there is more presence of one asset in the portfolio. In view of further decline, investors should currently stop investment in gold. If SIP is running in the gold scheme of gold ETF or mutual funds, then it should be continued. If for some reason, the purchase of gold is necessary, then it should not be done much at once.
Experts also say that if a person has a gold stake in an investment portfolio, he should not worry. This is essential for diversification of portfolio. If there is no gold share in a person’s investment or very low, then you should invest in gold if there is a decline. This will keep your portfolio diversified.
