Gold extends losses on stockists selling, global cues
New Delhi, Oct 30. Extending losses for the third
straight day, gold prices dropped Rs 220 to Rs 31,710 per ten
gram in the national capital today on sustained selling by
stockists amid sluggish demand coupled with weakening global
trend.
Silver, however, snapped two-day losing trend and gained
Rs 510 to Rs 50,100 per kg on increased offtake by industrial
units and coin makers.
Traders said sustained selling by stockists against
sluggish demand at current levels and a weakening global
trend, as the dollar's rally curbed demand for the metal as an
alternative investment, mainly kept pressure on gold prices.
Gold in New York, which normally sets price trend on the
domestic front, fell by 0.5 per cent to USD 1,345.50 an ounce
in last session.
Rising equity markets, luring investors to park funds into
stock markets for quick gains, also reduced the gold demand,
they said.
On the domestic front, gold of 99.9 and 99.5 per cent
purity plunged by Rs 220 each to Rs 31,710 and Rs 31,510 per
ten gram, respectively. It had lost Rs 640 in last two days.
Sovereign, however, held steady at Rs 25,300 per piece of
eight gram.
On the other hand, silver ready recovered by Rs 510 to Rs
50,100 per kg and weekly-based delivery by Rs 910 to Rs 49,800
per kg, after losing Rs 310 in the previous two sessions.
Silver coins spurted by Rs 1000 to Rs 88,000 for buying
and Rs 89,000 for selling of 100 pieces on upsurge in demand
because silver coins normally used for pooja on Diwali
festival.
