Gold prices over the years
Notably, gold prices last year experienced their strongest bull run since 1979, rising by over 75%. In recent months, gold prices have risen modestly amid strong safe-haven demand and global economic uncertainty.
Nations across the world are eagerly waiting for a peace resolution between the US and Iran, with the chokepoint Strait of Hormuz a serious concern. This is because the Strait of Hormuz is a critical global chokepoint, accounting for roughly 20% of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) consumption. Disruptions in traffic through this chokepoint have impacted global oil and energy prices.
Project Freedom
US President Donald Trump announced ‘Project Freedom’ to guide stranded ships through the Strait of Hormuz, though the risks of a blockade and fragile peace prospects kept markets on edge.
In India, the yellow metal climbed from ₹135,257 in early January to ₹157,480 in early March, marking an appreciation of around 16%. In May, the precious metal is trading below those highs as investors booked profits.
Meanwhile, silver prices have seen even steeper increases due to strong demand and currency fluctuations, rising from roughly ₹78,600/kg in 2023-2024 to over ₹200,000/kg in the early months of 2026.
