Gold price today, June 2 -- Gold rates climbed in the domestic futures market Monday morning as a fresh escalation in tensions between Russia and Ukraine and US President Donald Trump's threat to double tariffs on steel and aluminium imports boosted demand for safe-haven assets. The dollar's decline and an uptick in domestic spot demand also supported futures prices. MCX Gold August 5 contracts traded 0.26 per cent higher at Rs.96,125 per 10 grams around 9:10 AM.
