Despite the rising prices, enthusiasm among buyers remains high. Local jewelers in Chennai report a notable influx of customers, both retail and wholesale, eager to purchase gold in various forms, including jewelry, coins, and bars. Gold is especially coveted during festive seasons as it symbolizes wealth, prosperity, and tradition.

The increase in gold prices is further supported by ongoing uncertainty surrounding the upcoming U.S. elections on November 5th and the anticipation of key U.S. economic data, including the PCE and payroll reports, expected to be released this week. Additionally, the declining U.S. Dollar Index is creating a favorable environment for gold, further driving its appeal among investors.
