🌍 Key Drivers Behind the Surge

Multiple global triggers are fueling this sharp rally:

  • Weak US dollar boosting commodity prices
  • Trump’s tariff threats on Europe and Greenland ambitions
  • Escalating trade war and geopolitical tensions
  • Rupee depreciation amplifying domestic MCX gains
  • Industrial silver demand hit 55% (electronics & renewables)

Short-term profit booking caused brief pullbacks, but volatility remains extremely high.

🔮 Market Outlook & Expert View

Market experts remain bullish but cautious.

  • Gold Support: ₹1,44,000 → Target ₹1,55,000
  • Silver Support: ₹3,03,000 → Target ₹3,38,000
  • MCX gold hovering near ₹1.8 lakh
  • Silver already breached ₹4 lakh/kg levels

Globally, silver’s 64% yearly rise signals a shift away from dollar assets. Analysts expect continued volatility driven by geopolitics, dollar index moves, and evolving US policies.

 

⚠️ Investor Note: High rewards come with high volatility. Track global cues closely and consider buy-on-dips strategies.

MCX Gold Breaks All Records at Rs 1.72 Lakh 🚀

MCX Gold

When uncertainty rises, gold shines brighter.

 

MCX gold prices stunned the market in late January 2026, smashing past the historic Rs 1.72 lakh per 10 grams mark. Fueled by global geopolitical tensions, aggressive central bank buying, and a weakening dollar, gold has emerged as the undisputed safe-haven king of 2026.

📈 Recent Price Surge

Gold futures for February 2026 delivery on MCX jumped sharply, hitting Rs 1,62,429 per 10 grams earlier in the week — a massive Rs 4,800 (3%) single-day rise. The rally didn’t stop there.

On January 28, prices breached Rs 1.72 lakh for the first time ever, extending the momentum after a brief pause due to profit booking on January 27.

Globally, spot gold surged to an all-time high of $5,220 per ounce before stabilizing near $5,205, marking an eye-popping 90% yearly gain.

🌍 What’s Driving Gold Higher?

  • Geopolitical tensions: Escalating global conflicts boosted safe-haven demand.
  • Central bank buying: Nations continue stacking gold reserves aggressively.
  • Weak rupee: Currency depreciation magnified domestic gold prices.
  • Fed rate cut hopes: Expectations of U.S. rate cuts in 2026 supported bullion.
  • Supply tightness: Limited physical availability kept prices elevated.

Meanwhile, COMEX gold hovered near $5,069 per ounce. Silver remained volatile — despite MCX silver crossing Rs 3.77 lakh/kg, gold clearly outperformed.

📊 Technical Outlook & Key Levels

Technical indicators continue to flash bullish signals:

  • 8 EMA crossing above 21 EMA
  • MACD turning positive
  • RSI recovering to the 55–58 zone

Key Levels:

  • Support: Rs 1,57,500 (major), Rs 1,55,000 (strong buy zone)
  • Resistance: Rs 1,72,000 – Rs 1,80,000

Profit booking has appeared near the upper Bollinger Bands, but analysts like Jateen Trivedi suggest that dips remain healthy buying opportunities with strict stop-losses.

💡 Investor Strategy for 2026

Retail investors should brace for high volatility. While short-term charts look stretched, the long-term outlook remains strong.

  • Global targets range between $5,000–$7,000 per ounce
  • 22K gold in Mumbai trades near Rs 1,48,450
  • Physical demand is muted due to elevated prices

Long-term investors benefit from gold’s diversification power, while short-term traders should track U.S. inflation data, Fed commentary, and dollar movements closely.

🏆 Final Take

The January 2026 gold rally confirms one thing clearly — gold remains the ultimate hedge in uncertain times. With MCX gold outperforming silver and equities under pressure, bullion stands tall as one of the strongest commodity bets of 2026.

 

Volatile in the short term, powerful in the long run — gold isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

Gold Breaks All Records! Prices Explode as Global Tensions Rise

Gold Breaks All Records! Prices Explode as Global Tensions Rise
“When fear rises, gold shines brighter.”

Gold prices shocked global markets on December 22, 2025, hitting all-time highs both internationally and in India. A mix of cooling U.S. inflation, geopolitical unrest, and safe-haven buying pushed gold into uncharted territory — making investors cheer and jewelers nervous.

🌍 Global Gold Prices Hit Historic Levels

Spot gold surged past $4,400 per ounce, trading as high as $4,453 on COMEX. The rally gained momentum after U.S. inflation data came in lower than expected, strengthening hopes of Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2026.

Earlier in the day, prices hovered near $4,344, but quickly broke above the $4,380 resistance, triggering fresh buying. Over the last one month, gold has climbed 6.52%, and an eye-watering 65.62% year-on-year, proving its dominance as the ultimate safe-haven asset.

🇮🇳 India: MCX Gold Touches ₹136,000+

In India, gold prices followed the global surge. MCX gold futures jumped to a record ₹136,070 per 10 grams, gaining 1.40% in a single session.

  • 24K Gold: ₹136,180 per 10 grams

  • 22K Gold: ₹124,832 per 10 grams

  • 18K Gold: ₹102,135 per 10 grams

Silver also joined the rally, with MCX silver prices rising 2.46% to ₹213,557 per kg.

🔥 What’s Driving This Gold Rally?

Several powerful factors are pushing gold higher:

  • Softer U.S. inflation boosting rate-cut expectations

  • Weaker U.S. dollar, making gold cheaper globally

  • Geopolitical tensions, including Venezuela unrest and Russian shipping attacks

  • Strong central bank buying and ETF inflows

Together, these have created the perfect storm for gold bulls.

📊 Technical Outlook: More Upside Ahead?

Gold remains firmly bullish above the $4,300 support zone, with analysts eyeing resistance between $4,370 and $4,460. In India, key resistance lies near ₹134,519–₹135,324, while support is seen around ₹133,714.

Experts warn that while momentum is strong, volatility may increase with future Fed signals.

🛍️ Market Impact: Investors Win, Jewelers Feel the Heat

Indian retail gold prices surged to nearly ₹13,528 per gram (24K). While investors celebrate record gains, jewelers face rising costs ahead of the festive and wedding season.

With eyes on U.S.–China talks and currency movements, gold looks set to remain in the spotlight — and possibly rewrite history again.
