Gold and silver prices declined in domestic and international futures markets amid heightened geopolitical tensions and rising crude prices. MCX Gold, June 5 expiry, fell nearly Rs 2,000 to an early low of Rs 1,51,457 per 10 grams, compared to last day's closing of Rs 1,52,652.
Similarly, MCX Silver, May 5 expiry, fell over Rs 6,000 to a low of Rs 2,37,190 per kilogram against last day's closing of Rs 2,43,274.
Meanwhile, at around 10:32 AM, MCX Silver was trading at Rs 2,38,003, down Rs 5,271 or 2.17 per cent. MCX Gold was quoted at Rs 151709, down Rs 943 or 0.62 per cent.
"MCX Gold opened with a mild gap down and is trading within the Rs 1,51,500- Rs 1,52,000 range with limited buying interest at lower levels, though momentum remains gradual and unconfirmed. A sustained move above Rs 1,54,000 could revive momentum toward Rs 1,55,000. On the downside, a break below ₹1,51,000 may extend weakness toward Rs 1,50,000 and further to Rs 1,48,000," said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money.
