Antam Gold Price on 19 March 2026 Rises to Rp2,996,000; Check the Details

The price of gold bars from PT Aneka Tambang Tbk (Antam) rose by Rp8,000 in trading today, Thursday (19/3/2026). Currently, the gold price stands at Rp2,996,000 per gram, approaching the psychological level of Rp3 million once again. This increase offers a breath of fresh air for investors after the precious metal’s price had been fluctuating in recent days. Antam’s buyback price, or repurchase price, also climbed to Rp2,748,000 per gram. Today’s gold price rise is influenced by unabated geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Logistical disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz have caused Brent oil prices to surge, triggering global inflation worries. This has spurred demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. Meanwhile, the rupiah’s exchange rate against the US dollar remains capped at Rp16,915 (BCA e-Rate buy rate), providing support for the domestic gold price to stay high ahead of the long Eid al-Fitr 2026 holiday.
