Gold prices rose today, supported by lower US bond yields and concerns about a rise in injuries to the modified Delta strain.
Spot gold rose 0.3 percent to $1806.80 an ounce, while US gold futures rose 0.3 percent to $1806.70.
As for other precious metals, silver gained 0.4 percent to $25.25 an ounce, palladium went down 0.4 percent to $266.71, and platinum rose 0.3 percent to $1064.23.
