Gold, silver extend historic plunge as margin calls spread after Trump’s Fed pick

Gold, Silver Week Ahead: Why a Hormuz Shock May Hurt Bullion Before It Helps

With bullion markets closed for the weekend, gold and silver are set to reopen in Asian trade on Monday into a fresh escalation around the Strait of Hormuz.

Gold price tops $4,100 after U.S. jobs data revisions fuel Fed-rate hopes

Gold jumped past $4,100 on Thursday after the latest U.S. payrolls data pointed to a softer labor market than markets had been expecting.

It’s never as straightforward as just “supply and demand,” though those forces still count. Ask what really drives gold, and there’s always a tangle of answers. Take late 2025: gold surged above $4,000, marking the first time it held that level through the year’s close. Factors? Dollar softness, Fed chatter, and jittery politics all played their part, according to LBMA.

Natural Gas Price Today: European Gas Slips on Profit-Taking as EU Weighs New Crisis Measures

European natural gas prices dropped early Tuesday, with the Dutch front-month TTF contract—Europe’s flagship wholesale gas price—off 2.5% at 53.55 euros per megawatt hour as of 09:03 GMT. Some traders locked in profits after the recent rally and reacted to flickers of de-escalation in the Middle East.
