    On the MCX, silver prices declined by 3.57 percent to close at Rs.34183 per kg.


    Outlook


    Quick policy actions by the Central Bank of China to smoother out volatility in the equities, strengthening dollar and possibility of rate hike by the Federal Reserve in its September meeting will likely lead to declining gold prices.

    On the MCX, gold prices are expected to trade sideways today.
