This sharp rise in gold prices is because of multiple global factors, with the biggest trigger is renewed tariff tensions in the US.

The uncertainty in the market has caused the US dollar index to decline to a one-month low, along with a dip in the treasury yields, which made gold more preferred for buyers. Spot gold in the international market is also trading at a record level, crossing $4663 per ounce.
