Gold shoppers in the UAE are breathing a sigh of relief as the price of 22K gold in Dubai has dropped by Dh10, going from a peak of Dh388 per gram to Dh377.75 in just 24 hours. But will this price drop continue, or is this just a temporary reprieve?

Key Highlights:

  • Gold Price Drop: 22K gold in Dubai has dropped by Dh10 in the last 24 hours, now priced at Dh377.75 per gram, compared to Dh388 yesterday.

  • Price Increase Over the Past Month: Despite the recent drop, gold prices have risen by nearly Dh40 per gram over the last 30 days.

  • Cooling Down After a Rally: Analysts suggest that gold’s recent rally was unsustainable, and a cooldown was inevitable.

What’s Behind the Price Change?

The sharp drop in gold prices could be a sign that the market is adjusting after an intense price surge. “Gold prices need to cool off – there’s no way the kind of rally could have been sustained,” said a commodities analyst.

Shoppers looking for a bargain might find the current price appealing compared to yesterday's high, but it’s important to keep the bigger picture in mind. As one jeweler pointed out, “The next 24 hours will be crucial to determine if gold prices can drop further.”

Will Gold Prices Drop Further Before April 30?

With Akshaya Trithiya — the Indian festival where gold buying is seen as auspicious — approaching on April 30, shoppers are hopeful for more price drops. "If gold prices reach Dh340 per gram levels before the festival, it would be a welcome relief for many," added the jeweler.

The Impact of Geopolitical Factors

Gold prices are also being influenced by global events, particularly U.S. President Trump’s recent remarks. Trump suggested a potential reduction in the 100% tariff on imports from China, which could ease some pressure on the market. Additionally, his comments about keeping U.S. Fed Chair Jerome Powell in place may help stabilize investor confidence.

"No one would be surprised if gold prices fall further if there’s less talk about tariffs and Powell's removal," said an analyst. "Current gold prices are way too elevated — they need to fall back."

Conclusion: What Can Shoppers Expect?

While it’s still unclear whether the price of gold will drop further in the coming days, the next 48 hours will provide key insights into the future trend. Shoppers should keep an eye on global developments and price fluctuations, especially with Akshaya Trithiya just around the corner.
