Gold, Silver ETFs Rebound Up to 10% as Metals Hit Lifetime Highs.

Despite the recovery of precious metal ETF prices, they still remain below the levels that were achieved shortly before the tariff fears began to escalate. February gold futures traded on the MCX finished at ₹159226 per 10 grams, while March silver futures traded for ₹339927 per kilogram. 

Continued uncertainty related to world events has created safe-haven investments that can be made in precious metals.

Precious Metals Scale New Peaks

The April and June gold contracts traded on the MCX have also recorded new all-time highs, while May and July contracts for silver added record levels following yesterday's 4% decline.

On the COMEX, silver traded near $25 per ounce and gold traded near $1300 per ounce. A weak U.S. dollar supports dollar-denominated commodities for holders of currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

The growing industrial demands for solar panels, electric vehicles, and all forms of AI-optimised infrastructural solutions have provided momentum to the upward trend of silver and gold prices.

Tariff Easing Sparks Recovery

President Trump of the United States has eased his threats of tariffs against the European Union due to Greenland. European Union leadership was eager to renew EU-U.S. trade negotiations following the suspension of Parliament.

Even though the pause has occurred, the European Union still warns of a future threat while asking for continuing cooperation with the United States to repair the damage to Trans-Atlantic relations.

The details of the Greenland framework remain unclear, thereby continuing to cause demand for havens. 

Dollar Weakness, Geopolitical Flows

The US dollar had its worst week in a year due to falling monthly. A weak dollar supports the price of precious metals around the world.

The rebound following the drop in price was indicative of dip buyers in the ETF markets. The ETF market is lagging behind spot gains due to a renewed interest in the precious metal markets.
