Gold and silver prices surged to record highs on Monday, driven by investor demand for safe-haven assets amidst escalating geopolitical tensions and uncertainty surrounding the U.S. Federal Reserve. Gold futures reached approximately 1,42,000 per 10 grams, while silver futures climbed to around 2,63,000 per kilogram. International spot prices also hit new peaks, with gold exceeding $4,600 per ounce and silver surpassing $84 per ounce. Analysts attribute the rally to global instability, including conflicts in Iran and Ukraine, and a U.S. federal probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
