Gold price today: Bullion snaps back toward $5,000 after Thursday dip — Delhi rates, MCX moves, and what’s driving it

Gold surged to a fresh record Friday, pulling silver and platinum up to their highest marks as safe-haven buying stayed firm. Spot gold ticked up 0.4% to $4,957.10 an ounce by 0536 GMT, after hitting a peak of $4,966.59. Kyle Rodda, analyst at Capital.com, linked the rally to a shaken “faith in the U.S. and its assets.” The snapback matters as sentiment flips fast. Investors rushed to adjust risk after U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threats on Greenland shook markets briefly before calming — a move now rippling through metals, stocks, and currencies.
