Gold in Delhi rose ₹400 to ₹1,50,300 per 10 grams on Monday from ₹1,49,900 on Friday, as improving festive demand and firmer global trends supported prices ahead of Dussehra. Silver held steady at ₹2.15 lakh per kg. HDFC Securities' Saumil Gandhi said physical demand has improved, with gold trading at a premium last week for the first time in over three months, and retail buying is expected to strengthen before Diwali. Globally, spot gold traded at $4,175.57 per ounce and silver rose over 1% to $57.63, as easing crude oil prices and lower US Treasury yields eased inflation concerns.

- Gold , silver prices may see limited upside ahead of Diwali ; expert sees gold at Rs 1 . 5 lakh , silver at Rs 2 . 3 lakh
Gold and silver prices may see limited upside ahead of Diwali 2026, according to commodity expert Anuj Gupta in a Business Today report published October 17. He projects gold could move toward Rs 1.5 lakh per 10 grams and silver toward Rs 2.2–2.3 lakh per kg, supported by festive buying. Rising interest rates, inflation and growing investor interest in bonds could, however, limit gains, while silver also faces pressure from weak industrial demand, including concerns about China's solar industry. Gold has gained around 9% this year, while silver has declined nearly 9%. The article stresses that expert price targets are estimates, not guaranteed outcomes.

- Akshaya Tritiya 2026 : Gold May See Near - Term Volatility , But Buy on Dip Outlook Holds - Motilal Oswal Financial Services
According to a Motilal Oswal Financial Services report, gold prices have risen nearly 10% so far in 2026, though prices swung sharply through the first quarter. Geopolitical tensions, slowing growth and uncertainty over US interest rates support gold's safe-haven appeal, while a stronger dollar and elevated bond yields have caused intermittent pressure. In India, high prices have subdued price-sensitive jewellery demand and pushed domestic prices to a discount, while China has seen stronger investment-led buying and Indian investors are gradually shifting toward ETFs. Citing World Gold Council data, central banks bought around 860-870 tonnes in 2025, a slower pace than in previous years, and global ETF demand has recovered. The report expects gold to trade within a broad range in the near term, with a constructive medium- to long-term outlook and a 'buy on dips' stance for investors with medium- to long-term horizons.

- Is TC Energy (TRP) a Good or Bad Investment at Today's Multiple?
TC Energy trades at 21.19 times next year's expected earnings, closing at $61.74 on October 16 after a 1.5% return over 6 months, versus 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index and 9.3% for the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. The company operates natural gas transmission pipelines across Canada, the United States and Mexico, plus power generation, with a 44.25% operating margin, and latest-quarter earnings rose 18.00% on revenue up 5.70%. The article flags risks including debt at 170.37% of equity, the loss of crude oil pipelines to South Bow in 2024, and volumes that depend on North American gas demand from power and LNG exports. A 4.01% yield is cited as income while the market decides whether the stable business justifies the multiple relative to its growth.
- Should You Buy This Trump AI Stock Ahead of Earnings?
Microsoft (MSFT) reports quarterly results on October 28 and ranks eighth in Trump's latest stock portfolio, after Trump bought the stock five times in August. Bulls point to Azure growth of 43% last quarter, with management expecting about 45% in the current quarter, and to demand that exceeds available computing capacity. Bears cite rising capital spending that Deutsche Bank says could push free cash flow close to breakeven in fiscal 2027, about two-thirds of spending going to short-lived equipment such as chips, and OpenAI making up about 45% of the commercial backlog in the December quarter. The stock trades at 26.75 times forward earnings, a 27% premium to the sector median of 21.01 but 12% below its own five-year average of 30.47, with a PEG ratio of 1.70 versus a sector median of 1.14. The article concludes that investors pay more than for the average tech stock but less than they usually pay for Microsoft.
- What Is Williams' (WMB) Economic Moat, and Is It Steel or Permits?
Williams (WMB) closed at $71.28 on October 16, with a 0.5% return over 6 months, compared with 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index and 9.3% for the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. The article argues its main advantage is the Transco pipeline, which runs from the Gulf Coast up the eastern seaboard, where several attempts to build new pipe have been abandoned after failing to win approvals. A 39.54% operating margin and 21.50% return on equity are cited as evidence of this advantage, although revenue rose only 7.80% last quarter. Limits noted include debt at 200.37% of equity, rules that also restrict Williams' own growth, and a price of 26.81 times expected next-year earnings. The dividend yields 2.95%.
- Marvell Jumps 6% as GF Securities Says Google Chip Delay Won’t Dent Its Position; Broadcom Rises 3%
Marvell shares rose 6% to $241.27 in afternoon trading after a reported delay in Google's next TPU chip, while Broadcom gained 3%. GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu said the delay does not change Marvell's medium- to long-term position in Google's chip supply chain. Marvell reported Q2 FY2027 revenue of $2.74 billion, up 36.5% YoY, with its Data Center segment at $2.17 billion, or 79% of revenue. Google can acquire up to 7% of Marvell shares under a warrant tied to revenue targets, and management expects its custom business to more than double in fiscal 2028. Q3 revenue guidance is $3.15 billion, plus or minus 5%, with non-GAAP gross margin of 57.5% to 58.5%, and the article notes Marvell still needs to convert its Google programs into reported revenue.
- Is ONEOK (OKE) Cheap at 14 Times Next Year’s Earnings?
ONEOK (NYSE:OKE) closed at $93.31 on October 16 and returned 11.4% over six months, versus 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index. The stock trades at 14.49 times next year's expected earnings and yields 4.59%, and revenue rose 52.80% last quarter as the company grew through acquisitions. The article argues that much of this growth was bought rather than built, with only 13.25% of revenue remaining as operating profit and debt at 143.07% of equity. Because a large part of the business involves buying and reselling liquids rather than earning transport fees, the article views the discount as having a reason behind it. It concludes that investors should watch margins rather than revenue.
