Gold and silver prices opened mixed on the MCX on Thursday even as softer-than-expected US consumer inflation reduced expectations of an imminent Federal Reserve rate hike. Investors are now awaiting producer price data for further clues on the direction of inflation.
In the domestic market, MCX silver futures for September 2026 delivery were down by Rs 535 at Rs 2,37,300 per kg. Gold futures for October 2026 delivery rose by Rs 1,400 in two sessions to Rs 1,55,145 per 10 grams.
