Gold, Silver Gain As Crude Prices And Bond Yields Ease

Gold and silver prices gained on Wednesday, up almost 1 percent in early trade, as easing crude oil prices and lower bond yields supported precious metals. On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures opened at Rs 1,63,202 per 10 grams, up Rs 320 from the previous close, while silver futures opened at Rs 2,45,583 per kg, up Rs 1,456 from its previous close.

Market experts attribute the gains to a weaker dollar and easing concerns over oil supply disruptions due to reports of discussions between Oman and Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
