Gold in dollar terms jumps on false logic.  Since there is a 10% duty to import gold in India, gold in rupee terms  in India should have risen by about 3%. Gold market in India responded rationally, Aug gold contract in India rose by about 3%.  However the corresponding rise in gold in international markets is based on false logic. Based on Indian duties, gold in international markets should trade 2-3% lower than in India.  Momo  crowd that is aggressively buying gold this morning has never been known for deep analysis.

Interest rates are range bound.
