Indian gold markets opened the new week on firmer ground on Monday, June 22, 2026, as the precious metal clawed back a portion of last week's steep losses. Investors who had retreated during the sell-off returned to pick up gold at lower prices, although persistent expectations of elevated U.S. interest rates kept any sharp rally in check.
What Is Driving Gold Higher Today
On the global front, spot gold climbed 0.4% to $4,176.34 per ounce as of 0424 GMT on Monday, recovering after sliding to its weakest point since June 11 in the previous session. Easing crude oil prices proved to be a key trigger: signs of progress in U.S.-Iran peace negotiations reduced the urgency around safe-haven demand, yet the softer energy prices brought bargain buyers back into the gold market. At the same time, U.S. gold futures for August delivery slipped 1.2% to $4,194.40 per ounce, according to a Reuters report.
