Gold Price Today at Around Rs 50,800; Will it Increase Soon? Right Time to Invest?

Gold price in India jumped on Monday, tracking firm global cues. On the Multi-Commodity Exchange (MCX), the gold futures climbed 0.38 per cent to Rs 50,813 for 10 grams at 0950 hours on June 27. Silver price also saw a huge rise on Monday. The precious metal future soared 0.74 per cent to Rs 60,190 for a kilogram on June 27.

In the international market, gold price surged as some western countries plan to ban imports of the safe-haven metal from Russia. The European Union along with the United States and the United States have introduced a series of sanctions on Russia in the last few months, over its invasion of Ukraine. Now, four of the Group of Seven (G7) rich nations moved to ban imports of Russian gold on Sunday to weaken Moscow and its economy. This move may impact the supplies of bullion, if implemented.

Worried investors and the anticipation of more-than-expected interest rate hike by the United States central bank, kept yellow metal under pressure last week. However, the economic data showed that inflation expectations will be less worrisome than initially feared, reported Reuters.

SPDR Gold Trust, the world’s largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, said its holdings fell 0.2 per cent to 1,061.04 tonnes on Friday from 1,063.07 tonnes a day earlier.
