New Delhi: Snapping its two-day losing streak, gold prices rebounded by Rs 110 to Rs 30,790 per ten grams at the bullion market today, tracking a firm trend overseas along with fresh buying by jewellers at the domestic spot market.
Silver also rose by Rs 320 to Rs 46,200 per kg on increased offtake by industrial units and coin makers.
Traders said a firm trend overseas where gold climbed as investors scaled back expectations for extra stimulus from Japan s government, boosting the yen and hurting the dollar ahead of decisions on monetary policy from both the Bank of Japan and Federal Reserve in the coming days, influenced sentiment here.

Besides, fresh buying by jewellers to meet retailers’ demand supported the upside in the precious metals, they said.
