Jewellery stocks are under selling pressure falling more than 4% after MCX gold, most active June contract traded at Rs 27,262/10 gm, down Rs 663 or 2.4%.

Among the individual stocks, Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri (TBZ), Renaissance Jewellery, PC Jeweller, C Mahendra Exports and Thangamayil Jewellery have dipped more than 5% each on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).

Titan Industries, Gitanjali Gems and Shree Ganesh Jewellery House are trading lower by 4-5%.

On Friday, gold futures closed at their lowest level in 21-months, following a weak batch of US economic data and as the psychological impact of potential selling of the precious metal from Cyprus continued to take a toll.

Analyst at IIFL believes that precious metals would remain under pressure, considering the predominantly bearish tone that has overwhelmed the precious metals and the industrial commodities as well.
