Gold and silver prices in India continue to be under pressure on February 2nd, even after the Union Budget 2026 announcements. On Monday, MCX gold dropped by 2% and struggled to hold around Rs 1.40 lakh and MCX silver price plunged nearly 6% while trying to breath around Rs 2.50 lakh per 1Kg mark. This performance is due to appetite for safe haven assets falling sharply on a global level.
In the international market, Spot gold has plunged by over 4% and is below $4,700 per ounce, while spot silver declined nearly 7% to below $80 per ounce.

The latest reason to topple precious metals is the last week's market rout which was fuelled after US President Donald Trump nominated Kevin Warsh to become the chair of US Federal Reserve. Warsh is known for more hawkish stance, which makes dollar attractive and gold less compelling.
