Gold & Silver - Bullion - Feb 25, 2022 - Reliance Securities

International spot precious metals reversed course and ended weaker while on COMEX came off session highs on Thursday with spot gold falling below the key $1,900 as equities rebounded after U.S. President Joe Biden unveiled harsh new sanctions against Russia.

Domestic gold, silver and the bullion Index futures ended with solid gains on Thursday.

Biden hit Russia with a wave of sanctions on Thursday after Moscow invaded Ukraine, measures that impede Russia's ability to do business in major currencies along with sanctions against banks and state-owned enterprises.

If current sanctions are the limit of the response, the economic impact is limited. So, investors covered their shorts in stocks, and this weighed on bullion.

However, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is a gamechanger and demand for safe-havens will remain elevated and gold prices will likely see strong support over the short term.
