Precious metals staged a spirited recovery across domestic commodity bourses on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, as bargain-hunting investors stepped in following Tuesday’s inflation-driven drop. On India’s Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold and silver futures opened in positive territory, maintaining strong buying interest despite a resilient Indian rupee that capped broader domestic gains. The turnaround reflects a classic technical stabilization after hotter-than-anticipated United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) numbers had sparked fears of aggressive monetary tightening by the Federal Reserve, temporarily denting non-yielding bullion assets.

Trading data from the morning session revealed sustained upward movement. The benchmark gold contract maturing on December 4, 2026, commenced the day with an opening advance of ₹745, or 0.53 percent, starting at ₹1,41,270 per 10 grams against its previous closing mark of ₹1,40,525. As the morning progressed, strong speculative inflows pushed the yellow metal to an intraday peak of ₹1,41,958 per 10 grams, representing an intraday surge of ₹1,433, or 1.01 percent. By mid-afternoon trading, the contract was exchanging hands firmly around ₹1,41,821 per 10 grams, up ₹1,649 from its previous settlement. Further along the futures curve, the February 2027 gold contract mirrored this bullish trend, advancing ₹1,050, or 0.73 percent, to trade at ₹1,44,750 per 10 grams with an active volume of 2,054 traded lots.
