  "summary": "Gold prices surged by 2% in a day, reaching ₹1,57,080 per 10 grams in India, as a US Treasury move to double buyback operations for longer-dated bonds sparked a bullion rush. The decision, announced on September 9, is expected to provide liquidity support to the bond market and boost investor interest in gold. The surge comes at a crucial time for the Indian jewellery industry, which is gearing up for the festive and wedding season.",
