Gold Hits Record Psychological Milestone<\/b><\/h2>\n

Breaking a recent losing streak, gold futures surged by over <\/span>4%<\/span><\/b>, crossing the crucial <\/span>\u20b9144,000 per 10 grams<\/span><\/b> mark.<\/span> The April contract settled at \u20b9144,795<\/b>, marking a single-day rise of \u20b95,883. Market analysts attribute this “buy the dip” action to escalating geopolitical tensions in West Asia and a softening US Dollar.<\/span><\/p>\n
