Gold price hits another record — what GLD and gold stocks are doing before the open

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 06:22 ET — Premarket Gold hit a new high on Wednesday as tensions in Iran and doubts about the Federal Reserve’s independence pushed investors back into safe-haven assets. Spot gold rose 0.9% to $4,627.72 an ounce by 1001 GMT, after earlier peaking at a record $4,639.48. Meanwhile, silver climbed past $90 for the first time. Jamie Dutta, chief market analyst at Nemo.money, said the metals are benefiting from their “well-known haven characteristics.”
