"gold-prices"

Gold and silver prices surged this week, with 24-carat gold rising by over Rs 3,300 and silver breaching the Rs 1.28 lakh mark, amid global uncertainty and safe-haven demand

Gold and Silver prices surged to fresh record highs this week, driven by global uncertainty, tariff concerns, and safe-haven demand, with analysts expecting the bullish trend to continue in near term

Gold prices hit a record high of ₹1,05,937 per 10 grams on MCX, driven by global bullish sentiment, festive demand, and US rate cut expectations. Comex gold also soared to a lifetime high, further fueling domestic market momentum

Gold prices slipped by ₹200 to ₹1,00,170 per 10 grams in Delhi on Monday, tracking weak global cues. Silver held steady at ₹1,15,000/kg. Analysts cited Fed’s dovish stance, US job data, inflation, and GDP outlook as key factors

Gold prices are expected to stay range-bound amid global trade uncertainty, key US macroeconomic data, and central bank cues. While domestic festive demand may offer support, a stronger US dollar and volatility persist. Silver surged on tightening supply and industrial demand

According to the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), the price of 24-carat gold rose sharply from Rs 96,670 to Rs 1,00,000 per 10 grams -- a jump of Rs 3,300 within 24 hours

Spot gold prices in India also surged. According to the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), the fine gold (999 purity) was priced at Rs 9,659 per gram, while 22-carat gold stood at Rs 9,427

The yellow metal will remain attractive as long as global policy uncertainty and trade issues persist, say experts

Gold of 99.5 per cent purity also appreciated by Rs 1,650 to hit a fresh peak of Rs 97,650 per 10 grams against the previous close of Rs 96,000 per 10 grams. Additionally, silver prices climbed by Rs 1,900 to Rs 99,400 per kg

This marks the metal's strongest weekly performance since the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, as global investors react to growing economic uncertainty following a new wave of US tariffs introduced by President Donald Trump

Silver also registered a steep rise of Rs 2,300 to Rs 95,500 per kg, largely in tandem with global trends

"The sharp rise in gold prices has made it difficult for us to find work, such as molding gold ornaments. People are purchasing smaller quantities of gold for weddings and other social events compared to before, which is impacting our livelihood," said Ramesh Mutthoju, president of the Mancherial District Goldsmiths Welfare Association, in a statement to Telangana Today.

Hard to resist is the lure of gold. Whether as an embellishment to show off or quietly tuck away as investment, the precious metal happens to be the choice of most.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), 24-carat gold April futures rose by 0.21 per cent, touching Rs 86,875 per 10 grams. The surge in gold prices is mainly driven by global instability

investors are turning to precious metals for stability as a result of increased market volatility brought on by elevated geopolitical tensions,

In India, the gold prices have fallen from Rs 78,566 per 10 grams on November 6, when Donald Trump won the US Presidential election, down to Rs 73,740 per 10 grams on November 14 (Thursday), which is over 6 per cent drop, as per data from the India Bullion and Jewellers Association

The fall in prices comes despite the ongoing wedding season, typically a period of heightened demand for precious metals

The India Bullion and Jewellers Association Ltd (IBJA) reports that 24-carat gold is priced at Rs 76,570 per 10 grams, 22-carat at Rs 74,720, 20-carat at Rs 68,130, and 18-carat at Rs 62,201 per 10 grams.

Gold prices saw a slight increase on Saturday, with the cost of 24-carat gold reaching Rs 7,785.3 per gram in morning trading, reflecting a rise of Rs 120. Meanwhile, 22-carat gold was priced at Rs 7,138.3 per gram, up by Rs 110 compared to Friday.
