The rally in gold prices was primarily driven by a decline in the US dollar and oil prices, following a temporary easing of geopolitical tensions. A two-week ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran, reportedly brokered with Pakistan's involvement, helped calm markets and reduce immediate inflationary concerns.

Market analysts noted that lower oil prices and easing tensions tend to support gold by weakening the dollar and improving expectations for interest rate cuts.
