Why Gold and Silver Prices Rose Today

• Positive Start to August: Both metals are carrying last week's stability into the new month. The Fed's rate hold last Wednesday has removed the immediate fear of a rate hike, giving buyers more confidence.
• Comex Silver Up 1.28%: Silver on Comex rose more than gold today. Buyers are returning to silver after its sharp July fall, treating current levels as an opportunity.
• Gold Holds Above ₹1,43,000: MCX gold has stayed above ₹1,43,000 through all of this week's sessions. This level is acting as a support base and attracting buyers whenever prices dip toward it.
• Quiet Dollar Today: The US dollar is broadly stable today, which is allowing gold and silver to inch higher without the headwind of a strengthening dollar pulling prices down.
• Upcoming US Inflation Data: US consumer price index data is due this week. Markets are in a mild risk-on mood ahead of it, expecting the reading to show easing inflation, which would be positive for gold.

What should gold and silver buyers watch for in August 2026?

The key trigger this week is the US Consumer Price Index data. If inflation comes in lower than expected, markets will reduce bets on a Fed rate hike, which could push gold and silver higher quickly. If inflation surprises on the upside, prices could slip again. For long term buyers, the current range around ₹1,43,000 to ₹1,45,000 per 10 grams for gold and ₹2,18,000 to ₹2,20,000 per kg for silver is reasonable for staged buying.
