The “Gold Division”: The rise in prices is a reaction to the fall of international banks.. and the increase in demand locally, despite the vacation

Lotfy Al-Munib, Deputy Head of the Gold Division at the Federation of Chambers of Commerce, confirmed that the gold market is witnessing a state of significant increases, which led to an increase in the price of a gram by about 200 pounds, within hours, as the price of a gram now ranges from 2100 pounds to 2150 pounds.

New highs in gold

He pointed out in exclusive statements to “People of Egypt” that the local market today witnessed new heights despite the approval of the global stock market and banks today, led by the Central Bank, and therefore there was no change in the currency rate.

The secret of the high price of gold

He explained that the reasons for the rises are due to two reasons, one of which is justified and the other is unjustified, pointing out that the justified reason is due to global events such as the fall of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and the European Swiss Bank “Credit Suisse”, which led to the tendency of investors to hedge by buying large quantities of gold.

He pointed out that there was an unjustified situation in the local market, as a result of a general fear that led to the tendency of dealers to buy gold in large quantities for fear of its high prices, which greatly increased the demand for gold and raised its price.
