Gold and silver prices are trading slightly lower today on the international bourses. We expect precious metals prices on Indian bourses to trade range-bound for the day, as gold prices are held near a record - on pace for an eighth straight weekly advance; on increasing haven demand fueled by geopolitical and trade tensions, as well as concerns about the economic outlook."
