Gold and Silver Prices Rise Ahead of Dhanteras Amid US Midterm Election Impact
Gold and silver prices in India rose ahead of the Dhanteras and Diwali festivals, driven by increased demand and international market factors. Domestic rates for 22k gold jewellery increased across major cities, with brands like Tanishq, Malabar Gold Diamonds, and Kalyan Jewellers reporting higher prices. The US midterm election results contributed to a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, boosting global bullion prices. Gold futures on the Multi Commodity Exchange also saw gains, reflecting heightened investor interest in safe-haven assets.
