Rahul Ghose, CEO of Hedged.in remains upbeat on the prospects of gold for FY2025 even as he sounds not so optimistic on the outlook of domestic equities. He rules out significant movement in the equity markets barring a few sectors like auto, capital goods and select PSU notwithstanding a stellar run in PSU stocks in the financial year ended March 31, 2024.

Ghose expects a small correction in the next 45 days before the election results kick in arguing that historically 5-week series are volatile in nature, and May is a 5-week series amid election voting.

Anuj Gupta, Head Commodity & Currency, HDFC Securities also remains bullish on gold and expects it to test levels of Rs 73,500.
