Gold Rates & Silver Rates Today (22-05-2026) Live: MCX Metals Extends Fall, 24 Carat Gold Sinks By Rs 4,400

Gold rates and silver rates in India have corrected sharply on May 22 after spot gold and spot silver dropped by nearly 1% due to conflicting signals around US-Iran peace negotiations. Also, crude oil prices climbed by 1-2% with US WTI Crude trading above $97 per barrel and Brent Crude near $105 per barrel. MCX gold and silver prices are struggling to retain above Rs 1.60 lakh and Rs 2.75 lakh mark as the sentiments are fragile and volatile.

In the latest development, Iran said the latest proposal from US partially bridges the gap between the countries. However, in another course of action, Iran's supreme leader ordered to keep their enriched uranium stockpile within their borders, which complicated negotiations. Apart from this, US' key objective is for Iran to give up their nuclear dream.

Iran is also reportedly in talks with Oman on establishing a permanent toll system that would formalize its control over shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, though President Donald Trump rejected the idea. Despite the recent stability, gold prices remain about 14% lower since the conflict began, amid concerns that an energy-driven inflation shock could prompt central banks to tighten monetary policy, as per Trading Economics.
