The price of one sovereign of gold has increased by Rs 6040 since January 1. The uncertainty in the global economic sector after Donald Trump took office as the US President led to an increase in investment in gold, a safe haven. It is also assessed that Trump's policies that are exacerbating price hikes will cause a global recession. The depreciation of the rupee has also caused a surge in gold prices. The increase in the amount of gold in foreign exchange reserves by various central banks has also been beneficial.
