gold Silver

From bullion market to MCX, today the shine of precious metals has suddenly increased a lot. If you are planning to buy jewelery or invest, then you will have to loosen your pocket a bit. Today, gold prices have registered a rise of Rs 1,024, while silver has seen a huge jump of Rs 3,257.

There was a boom in the futures market

Heavy buying was seen in August 2026 gold futures deals on MCX since this morning. By 9:54 am, the price of 10 grams of gold reached the level of Rs 149,956. This is a direct increase of Rs 1,024 or 0.69 percent compared to the previous closing price. According to market experts, the effect of 'short covering' is clearly visible here. Those traders who had earlier sold in the hope that the prices would fall, are now quickly closing their positions after seeing the rise. This panic has pushed the prices of gold even higher.
