#GOLD
• Price movement: Gold has surged above ~$5,000 per ounce as the U.S. dollar weakens and investors eye key U.S. economic data and potential interest-rate cuts. 
• Domestic trend (India): Gold rebounded strongly, with prices climbing back near ₹1.58 lakh per 10 g after recent volatility. 
• Safe-haven demand: Analysts say gold’s stability reflects its role as a hedge during economic uncertainty, while silver remains more volatile. 
• Global sentiment: Rising gold prices are also supporting commodity-linked currencies like the South African rand.
