“Gold extended gains on Friday, with spot gold in the domestic market hitting fresh all-time highs,” Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst of Commodities at HDFC Securities, said.

“Prices in MCX are near record high as Trump trade policies and tariff plans created an uncertain environment in the market, which may boost safe-haven demand,” Deveya Gaglani, Research Analyst-Commodities, Axis Securities, said.

Comex silver futures also increased 1.53 per cent to USD 31.32 per ounce in the Asian market hours.

    “The latest run-up in prices—in gold to an 11-week high near last year’s record, and silver towards resistance around USD 31—was triggered by Trump’s threat to impose tariffs on some of its major trading partners, including Canada, Mexico, Europe, and China.”

    “Silver continues to recover from the deep end-of-year correction that saw the white metal tumble 17% from a 12-year high at $34.87 to a December low at $28.74. Besides renewed demand from wrong-footed short sellers in the futures market at the start of the year, prices have also been supported by… the fundamental outlook for a fifth consecutive annual supply deficit.”

    “This was an audacious raid which had been carefully planned and executed,” prosecutor Shan Saunders said. “But those responsible were not careful enough, leaving a trail of evidence in the form of forensics, CCTV footage and phone data.”

    The purloined potty was stolen just days after its installation. It has never been recovered but is believed to have been cut up and sold.

    Jones, 39, was convicted of burglary in Oxford Crown Court.

    The theft was planned by James Sheen, 40, who previously pleaded guilty to burglary, conspiracy and transferring criminal property.

    Doe, 36, also known as Frederick Sines, was convicted of conspiracy to transfer criminal property.

    A fourth man charged in the conspiracy, Bora Guccuk, 41, was acquitted by jurors.

    WOW! Looks like justice was served. I will continue to follow up on jail time. Stealing a gold toilet from Winston Churchills house is bold to say the least. I wonder if the art will be made again after this. We’ll see! – V.

    Poland’s copper mining tax will fall from next year under a new system that will provide deductions related to investment spending, Polish finance minister Andrzej Domanski said on Friday.

    The tax on mineral extraction, including copper, was introduced in 2012. Poland’s biggest copper miner KGHM paid 3.87 billion zlotys in tax in 2024, according to its annual report.

    “By taking care of investments in Poland, by taking care of the development of KGHM, we also take care of the collective security of the West and the European Union.”
