A decision from Europe boosted gold-silver, with gold nearing 73,000 and silver nearing 92,000.

From New York to New Delhi, there was a tremendous surge in gold and silver prices. The increase is actually due to the European Central Bank cutting interest rates and falling US bond yields.

Due to this increase, the price of gold in Delhi has reached close to 73 thousand rupees on Thursday. On the other hand, the price of silver has also reached close to Rs 92 thousand. The price of gold in foreign markets has reached close to 2400 dollars. At the same time, silver prices are witnessing an increase of over 4 percent.
