Meanwhile, 22-Carat was gold at 91,050 per 10 grams of 10 grams per 10 grams after jumping £ 400.

The price hike comes as the US dollar continues to show weakness, primarily due to concerns over government spending and trade policies.

MCX Gold and Silver Futures Today

Market activity on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) also reflected positive momentum:

  • MCX Gold (Aug 5, 2025 expiry): ₹97,524 per 10 grams (up ₹134 or 0.14%)

  • MCX Silver (Sep 5, 2025 expiry): ₹1,07,636 per kg (up ₹118 or 0.11%)

This movement suggests strong investor sentiment ahead of upcoming U.S. economic indicators and trade negotiations.

Expert View and Outlook

Ajay Kedia, Director of Kedia Advisory, noted, “Gold prices gained 0.14% to settle at ₹97,390, supported by a weakening dollar as concerns around US fiscal stability grow. The recent Senate approval of a tax-and-spending bill projected to add $3.3 trillion to the US national debt has dampened investor confidence in the greenback.”

According to the World Gold Council, global gold demand rose 1% in Q1 2025, driven by a rise in investment inflows and gold bars, despite weaker jewellery sales and reduced central bank purchases.

On technicals, Kedia said, “Gold is in short-covering mode with open interest dropping 3.14% to 12,869 while prices moved up by ₹139. Support is seen at ₹97,095, and resistance around ₹97,580. A breakout could drive prices up to ₹97,775.”

Spot Gold and Silver Trends

Spot gold prices globally dipped slightly:

  • Spot Gold: $3,354.70/ounce (down 0.07% or $2.65)

  • Spot Silver: $36.62/ounce (up 0.20%)

This modest shift is attributed to reduced safe-haven appeal amid renewed optimism in trade developments, although concerns around US-Japan trade talks and fiscal pressure persist.
