Gold slips from record high
At the end of January, gold had touched a level that no one had even imagined. On January 29, 2026, gold had reached a record level of Rs 1,80,779 per 10 grams. After this high, profit booking started in the market and gradually the prices started coming down. Experts say that whenever gold goes up very fast, investors start taking profits. This is the reason why now stagnation and decline is being seen in prices.
