Why are gold and silver prices rising today?
Gold gained support on Friday as the US dollar weakened, Treasury yields eased and crude oil prices declined. These factors helped precious metals recover after their recent losses, Reuters reported.
In India, gold had already rebounded sharply on Thursday. According to the All India Sarafa Association, the price of 99.9% purity gold in New Delhi rose ₹3,600 to ₹1,52,500 per 10 grams, inclusive of taxes, after two sessions of declines.
Silver, however, had fallen ₹3,000 to ₹2,24,000 per kg on Thursday, according to the same report.
The contrasting moves underline the volatility in precious metals this week. Although prices recovered in Friday’s international trade, the market outlook remains sensitive to US interest-rate expectations, currency movements and geopolitical developments.
What does the World Gold Council say about gold demand?
The World Gold Council’s September market commentary showed that investment demand remained strong despite the decline in gold prices.
Gold ended September at $4,176 an ounce, down 8.5% from the previous month. The council attributed the correction to rising US Treasury yields, a stronger dollar and a reduction in futures positions.
Despite the fall, global gold exchange-traded funds attracted $10 billion in inflows during September, equivalent to 67 tonnes. Indian gold ETFs recorded inflows of $496 million, or 3.1 tonnes, during the month.
The figures suggest that some investors continued to use gold to diversify their portfolios even as prices corrected.
Consumers planning festive purchases should compare prices across jewellery chains and local retailers rather than relying on a single quoted rate. For gold jewellery, it is important to check the purity, making charges and final bill. Buyers of silver should also confirm the product’s purity and weight.
Bullion prices and city-wise retail rates may use different benchmarks and calculation methods. Consumers should check the rate quoted by their local jeweller before making a purchase.
