New Delhi, Nov 21 (PTI) Gold remained weak for the second straight day with prices falling by another Rs 30 to Rs 26,750 per ten gram at the bullion market in the national capital today on easing of demand from jewellers and retailers amid a weak global trend.
Silver, however, recovered by Rs 300 to Rs 36,500 per kg on scattered buying by industrial users.
Traders said besides slackened demand from jewellers and retailers at current levels, a weak global trend mainly kept pressure on gold prices.
Shifting of funds towards surging equity markets also dampened sentiment, they said.
