New Delhi, March 3 -- Gold continues its bull run amid heightened market volatility and escalating global trade tensions. While the yellow metal has witnessed some profit booking at higher levels amid a sharp rise in the U.S. Dollar, it still ended February with positive gains, extending its rally to the second consecutive month.

Spot gold prices climbed 2.15% last month, rising from $2,801 to $2,858 per troy ounce. Domestically, gold prices jumped 2.85% in the same period, climbing from Rs.81,907 to Rs.84,219 per 10 grams on the MCX.

In the last week, gold tumbled 2.63%, marking its biggest weekly drop since November. Prior to this, it had ended an eight-week winning streak, which was its longest rally since the pandemic-era surge.
