Gold Price Today Slides Below $4,900 to One-Month Low as Fed Bets Harden

Gold Price Today Slides Below $4,900 to One-Month Low as Fed Bets Harden

Gold slumped Wednesday, dropping to its lowest point in over a month as the dollar strengthened and another surge in oil prices cemented expectations for the Federal Reserve to stick with elevated rates. Spot bullion slid 2.6% to $4,874.19 an ounce by 11:14 a.m. ET, hitting its softest mark since Feb. 6. April U.S. gold futures were also down 2.6%, settling at $4,878.20. This comes after gold managed to stay above $5,000 as of Tuesday, despite the Iran war entering its third week. But now, the ongoing conflict is driving up energy prices and stoking inflation worries—enough to outweigh safe-haven flows. With rates still elevated, gold, which offers no yield, is up against it.

Gold Price Today Near $5,000: Fed Call and Iran Tensions Keep Bullion Stuck

Gold Price Today Near $5,000: Fed Call and Iran Tensions Keep Bullion Stuck

Gold hovered close to $5,000 Tuesday, stabilizing in New York after Monday’s slide as investors balanced safe-haven demand tied to the Iran conflict against nerves before the Fed’s Wednesday call. Spot prices barely budged at $5,004.71 an ounce by midafternoon, with April futures closing at $5,008.20. Silver retreated 1.5%. Platinum and palladium climbed. Gold’s behavior is shifting—no longer just a crisis play, but acting more like an asset keyed to rates. Brent crude climbed 1.52% to $101.73 a barrel on Tuesday. Markets pared back bets on U.S. rate cuts, pricing in only about 27 basis points of easing by year-end, down from over 50 basis points just days ago, with the oil spike clouding the Fed’s path.

Gold Price Forecast: Bullion Falls Near $5,050 as Dollar Rises, but Banks Keep $6,200 Targets

Gold Price Forecast: Bullion Falls Near $5,050 as Dollar Rises, but Banks Keep $6,200 Targets

Gold slipped for a second week in a row on Friday, taking a hit from a stronger dollar and a flare-up in inflation fears tied to the war with Iran. By late afternoon, spot gold dropped 0.5% to $5,052.15 an ounce, while U.S. gold futures ended at $5,061.70. Silver, platinum, and palladium all logged declines, too. “Strongly bullish gold long term,” said independent metals trader Tai Wong, but he noted that the dollar’s strength was dragging bullion toward its lowest mark since the conflict started. This is a live issue as gold approaches the Federal Reserve’s March 17-18 meeting, stuck between heightened war risk and a postponement of expected rate cuts. Early March numbers showed bullion holding onto a 19% gain for 2026 on top of a 64% surge last year, despite the dollar clawing back ground from other safe-haven plays.

Gold Price Today Falls as Dollar Rises, but Fed and Oil Shock Keep Bullion in Play

Gold Price Today Falls as Dollar Rises, but Fed and Oil Shock Keep Bullion in Play

Gold slipped on Wednesday, with spot prices down 0.5% at $5,165.93 an ounce as the dollar strengthened and traders leaned into the idea that U.S. rates will stay elevated. April U.S. gold futures fell more sharply, off 1.3% to $5,174.40. This decline stands out, landing right after gold spiked almost 2% to $5,231.79 — another example of just how quickly sentiment shifts here. Investors are caught between snapping up gold as a traditional safe haven during turbulence, and worrying that pricier oil could force the Federal Reserve to hold rates higher for longer.

Gold Price Today Near Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Meets U.S. CPI Test

Gold Price Today Near Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Meets U.S. CPI Test

Gold inched up early Wednesday, with some investors seeking safety ahead of U.S. inflation numbers. Spot gold—the immediate delivery benchmark—was last up 0.1% at $5,198.29 an ounce at 0641 GMT. U.S. April gold futures, though, dipped 0.7% to $5,206.40, paring gains from the previous rally. This matters right now: bullion is squeezed by two moving forces—persistent haven demand from war risk on one side, and sliding oil prices taking the edge off inflation worries on the other. Oil slumped after the Wall Street Journal said the International Energy Agency floated a record-breaking release of strategic reserves. On top of that, February U.S. consumer price index numbers drop at 8:30 a.m. Eastern. Friday, the Fed’s go-to inflation gauge, the Personal Consumption Expenditures index, is also on deck.

Gold price today: India’s 22K, 24K rates jump as silver surges past Rs 2.67 lakh/kg

Gold and silver prices soared across major Indian cities on Wednesday. On the Multi Commodity Exchange, silver futures jumped 13.07% to Rs 2,67,410 per kg, while gold rose 5.16% to Rs 1,54,000 per 10 grams, according to NDTV. In Delhi, 24-carat gold was priced at Rs 15,409 per gram. NDTV also noted that silver hit a record high of Rs 4,04,500 per kg on Jan. 29 before tumbling nearly 36%. This move counts now because bullion—bars and investment-grade metal—is a common asset in Indian households. Daily price shifts quickly affect shop quotes. Since prices are tracked per gram, a Rs 600 change can swiftly alter the cost of a small purchase.
