Gold Rate Today: Advice for Retail Consumers

With gold trading at unprecedented levels, experts suggest that consumers look for BIS Hallmark certification to ensure purity. For those looking at gold as a long-term investment rather than for immediate use, Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) or Gold ETFs remain cost-effective alternatives to physical gold, as they eliminate storage risks and making charges.

Why Gold Rates Are Surging?

Market analysts point to the US government's recent threat of 25% tariffs on countries trading with Iran as a primary driver of market volatility. This, coupled with a domestic criminal investigation into the US Federal Reserve Chair, has led to a weaker US dollar, making gold less expensive for holders of other currencies and thereby increasing demand. Major Gold Discovery in Saudi Arabia: Maaden Discovers New Gold Reserves in 4 Key Sites.
