Why should you increase gold allocation in your portfolio this Diwali?

Diwali is considered to be auspicious occasion for buying gold and irrespective of the price, gold is bought by Indians. Analysts believe the investment demand will continue to rise in 2021 taking in to consideration the unprecedented amount of liquidity flush by central banks across the globe. The surging covid infections also adds cherry on the cake for global investors to increase their allocations towards the yellow metal. “Although, the physical demand numbers released by the WGC does not represent a good story for India, It is advisable to increase gold allocation in your entire portfolio from 10% to 15 % taking in to consideration the uncertainty revolving around global economy,” says a report by Angel Broking.

As seen in the yearly price chart of MCX Gold, we noticed that prices have moved almost 30% up in year 2020. In year 2020 prices had made a high of 56,191 levels and low of 38,400 levels. The long term trend of Gold is positive. Prices have formed “Higher Top and Higher Bottom Formation” which is sign of bullish trend.

According to World Gold Council, India’s gold demand is expected to fall to the lowest level in 26 years with domestic bullion prices hitting a record high and as falling disposable incomes could further curtail retail purchases. “India’s gold consumption in the first half of 2020 plunged 56% on-year to 165.6 tonnes. Meanwhile, the coronavirus-triggered lockdown also slashed demand by 70% in the June quarter to 63.7 tonnes, the lowest in more than a decade,” says Angel Broking.

What is the good level to buy gold?

Analysts at Angel Broking expect Gold prices to find support at 47,500 – 44,000 ($1800 – $1680) levels. “Resistance is now observed in the range of 55700 – 56500 ($2100) levels. Trading consistently above 56,500 levels would lead towards the strong resistance at 62,500 ($2300) levels, and then finally towards the major resistance at 67,000 ($2500) levels.” says the report.

Oppn seeks probe into Adani charges in US: ‘Obvious protection of PM Modi’

Following US SEC charges of bribery against Gautam Adani, opposition parties criticise PM Narendra Modi and call for a JPC investigation.

As billionaire Gautam Adani faces charges in the US for alleged bribery and fraud, the Opposition on Thursday intensified its attack on the Centre over its alleged links with the Adani Group.

Gautam Adani has been charged in the US with allegedly paying $250 million in bribes to Indian officials between 2020 and 2024 to secure favourable terms for solar energy contracts. The scheme, prosecutors said, could have earned Adani’s group over $25 billion in profits.

Congress demands JPC probe

Reacting to the charges, the Congress called for a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into alleged scams involving Adani’s conglomerate. The party also demanded the appointment of a “new and credible” Sebi chief to investigate Adani’s financial dealings and compliance with securities laws.

Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) actions highlight the failure of Indian institutions to investigate the group. “The indictment vindicates Congress’s demand since January 2023 for a JPC into the Modani scams,” Ramesh wrote on X.

He accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of shielding Adani and claimed Congress’s “Hum Adani Ke Hain Kaun” (HAHK) series had exposed the businessman’s alleged fraud and his ties with the PM.

The fact that it has taken a foreign jurisdiction to properly investigate Adani only shows how Indian institutions have been captured by the BJP, and how decades of institutional development have been undone by greedy and power hungry leaders, the Congress leader said in another post.

“All of this is consistent with a long record of fraud and criminality carried out with impunity with the obvious protection of the Prime Minister,” Ramesh charged.

Other Oppn leaders join attack

Other opposition leaders joined the attack. Trinamool Congress MP Saket Gokhale questioned the BJP’s involvement in Adani’s dealings and demanded an independent judicial probe.

Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh accused PM Modi of allowing Adani to tarnish India’s global reputation.
