Gold price rally lifts GLD stock in premarket as Fed cut bets grow, Venezuela in focus

Gold price rally lifts GLD stock in premarket as Fed cut bets grow, Venezuela in focus

New York, January 6, 2026, 06:12 (EST) — Premarket Shares of SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) rose $10.41, or 2.6%, to $408.76 in U.S. premarket trading on Tuesday as bullion held near recent highs. The move matters because gold is back to trading as both a hedge and a rates play at the same time. Investors have been leaning into safety and repricing the path for U.S. interest rates, two forces that tend to work in gold’s favor. Spot gold was up 0.1% at $4,452.60 an ounce by 4:46 a.m. EST after rising nearly 3% in the previous session; U.S. February

New York, January 6, 2026, 06:38 EST — Premarket U.S.-listed gold exchange-traded funds climbed in premarket trading on Tuesday, tracking a fresh leg higher in bullion as investors weighed rate-cut expectations against rising geopolitical risk.

ActivTrades analyst Ricardo Evangelista pointed to “safe-haven demand” and “rising bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts.” Bullion hit a record $4,549.71 on Dec. 26 and ended 2025 up

Fresnillo PLC stock edges lower after Citi target hike as gold rally keeps traders focused on jobs data

London, Jan 6, 2026, 09:30 GMT — Regular session Fresnillo PLC shares (FRES.L) edged down 0.5% to 3,478 pence by 09:30 GMT on Tuesday, easing after Citigroup raised its price target for the precious-metals miner. The move matters because Fresnillo has become one of the FTSE 100’s most direct plays on gold and silver, with the stock trading near the top of its 52-week range. When bullion swings, miners often amplify the move as investors reprice expected profits. Gold prices ticked higher on Tuesday after rising sharply in the previous session, supported by growing bets that U.S. interest rates will

Evolution Mining stock ends higher as gold hits a one-week high; EVN investors eye Jan 21 update

Sydney, Jan 6, 2026, 18:22 AEDT — Market closed Evolution Mining Ltd (EVN.AX) shares closed up 0.2% at A$12.82 on Tuesday, steadying near the top of their 52-week range as gold pushed higher. The stock traded between A$12.68 and A$13.04 and remains just below a 52-week high of A$13.30. Investing.com The timing matters for gold miners because bullion’s latest leg higher is being driven by shifting U.S. rate expectations, a macro lever that can move sentiment quickly. For Evolution, it also lands ahead of a scheduled quarterly update that investors will use to test production momentum and costs against guidance.

Gold price jumps on Venezuela shock; Barrick, Newmont stocks in focus before U.S. open

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 03:52 ET — Market closed. Gold prices vaulted to a one-week high on Monday after the United States captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro over the weekend, a jolt that is likely to shape trading in gold-linked stocks once Wall Street opens later. Spot gold rose 2.2% to $4,424.17 an ounce, and Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade, said “gold and silver are viewed as a solid hedge against uncertainty.” Reuters That matters now for miners such as Barrick Mining and Newmont because higher bullion prices can quickly lift cash flow, especially when producers

Gold price today jumps on Venezuela shock as traders eye U.S. jobs data

NEW YORK, January 5, 2026, 02:42 ET — Market closed Gold price today rose about 2% in early trade on Monday on safe-haven demand — a shift into assets investors favour when uncertainty spikes — after U.S. forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in a weekend raid. Spot gold was last up 2% at $4,413.93 an ounce, while the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield nudged up to 4.179%.  Reuters Markets may have largely shrugged off the Venezuela action, but bullion caught a bid as investors assessed whether it signals a more aggressive shift in U.S. policy.

Gold price today: Bullion holds above $4,300 as Fed-cut bets linger and jobs data looms

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 12:24 ET — Market closed Gold prices began 2026 near record territory, ending Friday modestly higher even as the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields firmed. Spot gold rose 0.36% to $4,329.57 an ounce, while the dollar index gained 0.19% and the 10-year yield rose 3.8 basis points (0.038 percentage point) to 4.191%, Reuters reported. Reuters The tug-of-war matters because bullion’s rally has been closely tied to where investors think U.S. interest rates are headed. Lower rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding gold, which does not pay interest. Comex February gold settled 0.3% lower at

Newmont stock ends 2025 lower as gold cools — CEO handoff kicks off 2026 focus

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 17:12 ET — Market closed Newmont Corporation shares closed down 1.97% at $99.85 on Wednesday, the last trading day of 2025, with U.S. markets shut on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. Wall Street Journal The move matters because gold miners often magnify swings in bullion: costs are relatively fixed in the short run, so small changes in gold prices can quickly change expected cash generation. Newmont also begins 2026 with a leadership transition. The company said President and COO Natascha Viljoen became CEO on Jan. 1, joining the board, after Tom Palmer stepped

Newmont stock rebounds as gold steadies after CME margin jolt; Raymond James lifts target

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 23:23 ET — Market closed Newmont Corporation shares closed up 2.1% at $101.86 on Tuesday, snapping back as gold prices recovered from a sharp early-week slide. The stock traded between $100.31 and $102.70 during the session. The rebound came after the CME said new performance bond (margin) requirements for metals futures would take effect after the close of business on Dec. 29 — a change that can force leveraged traders to cut positions. Investors also digested minutes from the Federal Reserve’s Dec. 9–10 meeting, released Tuesday, that highlighted divisions after officials voted to lower rates

Gold price rebounds today as Fed minutes near; GLD and Newmont stocks climb

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 13:25 ET — Regular session Gold prices rebounded on Tuesday and gold-linked shares traded higher in midday U.S. dealings, as investors positioned ahead of Federal Reserve minutes due later in the session. Spot gold was around $4,373 an ounce, up about 1% on the day, according to Kitco data. Kitco The swing matters now because bullion’s late-year volatility is spilling into popular “gold proxy” trades — gold-backed ETFs that hold physical metal and large miners whose profits tend to move with the gold price. Gold is up about 66% in 2025, its biggest annual gain
