Gold Silver prices witness very high volatility on Monday. Gold prices tested $1584 per troy ounce to hit a near 7-year high, and silver prices test $18.50 per troy ounce in the international market.
India Gold February futures trade lower on January 7 – a day after it hit a fresh record high – amid lack of immediate escalation between the United States and Iran, denting bullion’s safe-haven appeal.
At MCX Gold prices crossed 41000 and silver prices crossed 48600 in intraday trade, but gave up some of the gains towards the close of the trade on Monday.
