Quick Answer

The commodity market prediction for tomorrow, 8 October 2026, is mixed. Gold and silver fell on Wednesday while crude oil, natural gas, copper and zinc all gained, as Indian equities slipped after two days of gains, with the Nifty 50 down 0.76 percent and Sensex down 0.59 percent, while India VIX rose 2.28 percent to 13.92 and Nifty Metal, Nifty Auto and Nifty IT led the declines. MCX trades into the evening, so these levels may shift before Thursday's session.

Wednesday, 7 October 2026, again split the commodity complex. The Nifty Commodities index, a broad gauge of commodity-linked equities, fell 1.43 percent to 9,107.25. On MCX, gold fell 0.51 percent and silver fell 1.12 percent, while crude oil gained 0.99 percent, natural gas gained 1.96 percent, copper gained 0.45 percent and zinc gained 0.34 percent.
