Market Factors Behind the Rise
According to Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst (Commodities) at HDFC Securities, gold prices advanced due to rupee depreciation and renewed safe-haven demand amid global uncertainties.
The rupee ended flat at 88.69 against the US dollar after trimming intra-day losses. While weak domestic equities and a stronger greenback capped gains, lower crude prices provided some support.
Gandhi noted that although the meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping ended positively, concerns over long-term economic rivalry persisted—pushing investors towards gold as a safe asset.
Global Market Trends
Globally, spot gold eased 0.52% to $4,003.49 per ounce, while silver inched up to $48.97 per ounce, reflecting mixed sentiment across international markets.
