In January of this year, gold prices in Bangladesh and the global market reached record highs, with the price of gold jewelry in the country nearing 300,000 taka per bhori. Since then, the market has experienced a downward trend. Currently, the price has fallen below 220,000 taka per bhori. Market observers are now questioning whether this decline will continue or if prices are likely to rise again in the near future.
