MCX Gold futures were trading at Rs 48,106 per 10 gram around this time and was up 0.65 per cent from the Friday closing price. Meanwhile, the MCX Silver futures were also up 0.47 per cent and were trading at Rs 65,965 per kg
The December Gold and Silver Futures were trading with a positive bias on Monday and were dearer by Rs 309 each around 6:40 pm. The domestic markets took cues from the global triggers including weakness in the US Dollar, global inflationary fears, leading to an uptick in metal prices and Russia’s gold and forex reserves going up significantly, analyst Anuj Gupta said.
The holdings of monetary gold increased by 0.14 per cent last month to 73.9 million ounces (2,298.547 tons) as of October 1, Gupta said. The Russian central bank has been steadily diversifying the country’s international holdings, cutting its share of US dollars in favor of gold and other currencies, he said.
