Why gold and silver prices are rising

On the global front, gold and silver touched record highs after fresh concerns emerged over trade tensions between the United States and Europe. These developments triggered renewed interest in safe-haven assets.

Market observers noted that ongoing global uncertainty and inflation-related worries continue to support precious metals. Experts believe gold and silver prices in India may remain firm in the near term if international conditions stay unsettled.
