Global crude oil prices have been on a steady ascent, straining India’s finances. In October, brent crude oil prices breached the $85-per-barrel level for the first time in over four years. There are concerns that the $100-level may not be too far.
NEW DELHI: Gold surged by Rs 555 to reach Rs 32,030 per 10 gram at the bullion market Wednesday, taking positive leads from global markets amid fresh buying by local jewellers.
The main focus is now on a retest of the year to date high (and 2011 low) around 75.15. Above here and the next technical resistance level will be the 61.8% retracement from 2014 highs around 79.51. To the downside, support is seen along the bullish channel base which, while intact, keeps focus on the further upside.
