A softer Dhanteras finish
Gold and silver dipped around Dhanteras, giving the week a softer finish. That describes the festival-period tone, not a steady fall through every session; the movement over the full week cannot be reduced to a straight-line decline.
Shoppers were spending more lightly, so the lower prices did not translate into heavier spending. For a family buying for the occasion, the final bill still depends on weight, purity and any making charges.
The dip and lighter spending
The clear features of the Dhanteras session were a dip in gold and silver prices and lighter shopper spending. Those happened together, but that alone does not show that one caused the other. No single trigger for the price move can be identified from these developments.
What to watch into next week
The next scheduled cues are US employment releases due at 19:00 IST on Friday, 6 November: average hourly earnings, non-farm employment change and the unemployment rate. Preliminary University of Michigan consumer sentiment and inflation expectations are scheduled for 20:30 IST.
For next week, watch how gold and silver respond after those releases. Buyers can check the live rate before deciding, and ask for the making charge in writing before paying.
