By June, the conflict in West Asia took a sharp turn when the US and Iran reached a surprise preliminary peace agreement. The peace agreement was signed on Thursday, June 18, 2026. The two sides have agreed to a memorandum of understanding that prolongs their ceasefire agreement by an additional 60 days.
Amid the constantly developing Middle East situation, investors continue to hold gold as a reliable safeguard against geopolitical uncertainty and instability around the world.
Domestic gold rates fluctuate daily driven by a mix of international prices, local import tariffs, taxes, and currency valuations. Recently, this dynamic was further amplified by geopolitical disruptions, specifically the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. This blockade caused a sharp spike in energy and fuel costs, which directly pushed both gold and silver prices upward alongside crude oil. Now that the blockade has been lifted in Hormuz, oil prices are easing.
