Gold at Rs 4.4 lakh per ounce? JP Morgan’s forecast points to a red-hot rally for yellow metal by 2026-end

  Gold at Rs 4.4 lakh per ounce? JP Morgan’s forecast points to a red-hot rally for yellow metal by 2026-end   Amid growing geopolitical uncertainties, gold has once again become the favourite option for investors around the globe. While 2025 saw an unprecedented rally, the trend is likely to continue well into 2026 as well. Although the rates have eased a bit, JP Morgan Private Bank says that gold may see a sizzling rally by the end of 2026, with prices potentially breaching the all-time high of $5,000 per ounce. If we take this target in the Indian market and consider today's exchange rate ($1 = Rs 88.65), this means that the price per ounce (1 ounce = 31 grams) of gold may hit Rs 4,43,2500 per ounce lakh by the end of 2026. This, of course, does not include taxes such as import duty and GST. If this assumption becomes reality, the price for one gram of gold in India next year may touch Rs 15,558. This target includes an import duty of 6 percent and GST of 3 percent. Talking...

Baba Vanga’s 2026 Gold Prediction: Will the Yellow Metal Reach New Heights?

  Baba Vanga’s 2026 Gold Prediction: Will the Yellow Metal Reach New Heights? Gold, long viewed as a bedrock of financial security, has received renewed attention in India after recent price surges. According to reports, the price of gold on the Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) recently touched the ₹1-lakh mark per 10 grams, a milestone that has stirred both investment and consumer interest across the country. Now, attention has shifted to what might happen in 2026. The Bulgarian mystic Baba Vanga is being cited for predictions that hint at a major global financial disturbance, and a potential further rise in gold prices. Rising Gold Amid Global Turbulence Experts point to multiple international developments as key drivers behind gold’s surge. Trade tensions, inflation, and fears of global economic instability are pushing investors toward safe-haven assets like gold. Speculation around tariffs, currency volatility, and slowing global growth are also heightening risk percepti...

Taller than Mount Everest: Scientists discover the Earth’s largest mountains, but no one could ever see them

  Taller than Mount Everest: Scientists discover the Earth’s largest mountains, but no one could ever see them Hidden deep inside the Earth, far beyond the reach of human exploration, scientists have revealed the existence of colossal mountain-like structures that make Mount Everest look tiny in comparison. A recent study published in Nature unveiled these formations, buried nearly 1,200 miles beneath our feet, known as Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs). Each is thousands of kilometres wide and rises to heights more than 100 times greater than Everest. Unlike the peaks that crown our planet’s surface, these hidden giants remain forever invisible, locked away in the depths of the Earth’s mantle. Their discovery is reshaping our understanding of how the planet formed and how it continues to evolve. How scientists found mountains larger than Mount Everest deep inside Earth The discovery of these gigantic structures is the result of decades of seismic research. Afte...

Scientists Watch a Dead Star Destroy a Planet, In Real Time

  Credit: Shutterstock | The Daily Galaxy --Great Discoveries Channel   White dwarfs  are the dense, slowly cooling remnants left behind when stars like the Sun exhaust their nuclear fuel. They no longer fuse atoms in their cores, but their gravity remains intense enough to affect their surroundings. Most are thought to settle into quiet retirement, gradually fading from view over billions of years. But LSPM J0207+3331 has proven far more active than expected. Scientists using the  HIRES spectrometer  at the  W. M. Keck Observatory  in Hawaii have discovered that the star’s atmosphere contains an unexpected mix of heavy elements—evidence that it is currently feeding on planetary debris. Metal Traces In Dead Star Spectroscopic analysis ofLSPM J0207+3331 revealed the presence of  13 different elements , including  iron ,  nickel ,  silicon , and  calcium —all typical components of rocky planets.  According to  Eart...

From Jamia to jail: Chancellor of terror-tainted Al-Falah had a shady past

  From Jamia to jail: Chancellor of terror-tainted Al-Falah had a shady past "Al-Falah" is Arabic for success, prosperity, and well-being. It was an apt name for a medical college in Faridabad. And then the November 10 Delhi blast happened. The Al-Falah School of Medical Sciences welcomed its debut batch of aspiring doctors just six years ago in 2019. Since then, it has turned into a sprawling campus, buzzing with students, teachers, and other staff. The founder of Al-Falah University (of which the medical college is a part) is Jawad Ahmad Siddiqui. A former lecturer, Siddiqui is now the director and founder of approximately a dozen ventures under the Al-Falah Group of Companies umbrella. Needless to say, he did well for himself. And the thousands of students studying at his university, especially the would-be doctors, thought they would too. But the explosion outside the Red Fort in New Delhi, which killed at least 12 people and injured many more, has not only thrust the Al-...

  ‘They don’t need our help’: Rubio praises India’s investigation in Delhi blast case; calls it ‘terrorist attack’ US secretary of state Marco Rubio has praised India’s handling of the investigation in the recent Delhi blast case that claimed 12 lives and injured several people. Speaking to reporters in Canada after a meeting of G7 foreign ministers on Wednesday, Rubio said Washington offered help to New Delhi but praised Indian investigators for handling the situation effectively. “We’ve offered to help, but I think they’re very capable in these investigations,” Rubio said. “They don’t need our help, and they’re doing a good job.” ‘Clearly a terrorist attack’ Rubio also called the blast, which took place in the national capital during a busy evening on November 10, as a “terrorist attack”.
