Gold (995) (Rs)

After last week's rally, gold is consolidating at higher levels.


Silver (Rs)

Despite the strengthening of the US dollar, silver too is consolidating and was able to remain flat during last week.

Platinum ($/troy ounce)

Industrial commodities like platinum were pulled down by dollar strength and ended the week with a loss of 2%.

WTI Crude ($/barrel)

Increasing activity at shale oil wells reduced supply concerns and pulled down oil by 4% during last week.
