  • Gold and Silver Prices Plunge, Shaking Global Stock Markets
    February 2, 2026, 5:54 AM EST. Gold prices plunged 8% to $4,465 an ounce on Monday, ending a recent record run near $5,600. Silver dropped 7% after a steep 30% slide on Friday, fueled by the metals market "meltdown." The sell-off followed U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of Kevin Warsh, a former Federal Reserve governor, as the likely next Fed chair, signaling less chance of rate cuts and weakening safe-haven demand. Industrial metals like platinum and copper also fell sharply, by 10% and 9%. Global stock markets reacted, with U.S. futures and European indexes down, led by losses in precious metals mining shares. Bitcoin dropped 9%, oil prices eased 5% amid easing U.S.-Iran tensions, and the dollar gained slightly. Despite declines, Deutsche Bank expects gold to reach $6,000 this year, seeing the sell-off as an unwinding of an overbought trade.
