Gold Rate Today: Because gold has a reversal tendency compared to the equities market, it has historically been recommended as an investment. Gold's price usually rises when stock prices decline because more people want to hold the metal. But gold represents more than simply financial gain to a lot of Indians. When individuals attempt to use gold for both personal and investment purposes, issues occur. There are many different ways to invest in gold, including bullion (gold bars), mutual funds, mining firms, jewellery, and futures. The only options to directly invest in gold are through futures, bullion, and a few specialty funds, with very few exceptions.
With a slight increase of 0.18 percent, gold futures with a August 5, 2024 maturity date are trading at Rs 72462 per 10 grams on the MCX. The price of silver futures, which mature on September 5, 2024, saw an increase of 0.82 percent, and are trading at Rs 93376 per kg on the MCX. The historically low correlation of gold with other financial assets makes it a popular choice among investors as a hedge against potential economic downturns. Rising gold prices usually result in lower bond yields.
