Gold has once again shattered records, surging to an all-time high for the second consecutive session. On March 19, domestic futures saw gold prices touching Rs 90,000 per 10 grams, driven by factors such as the escalating geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties in the US.
Globally, spot gold hit a peak of $3,018.66 per ounce, while US gold futures hovered around $3,027. The yellow metal’s relentless rally has been fuelled by multiple factors, including the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, investor anxiety over US Federal Reserve policies, and a weakening US dollar, which slipped to a five-month low below 103.
This surge has naturally impacted gold-related stocks in India. However, most of the top gold stocks are down significantly if we track their 2025 price movement. Here’s a closer look at how key gold stocks have performed year-to-date (YTD).
