Gold price set for a bumpy week after historic slide from record highs

Gold price set for a bumpy week after historic slide from record highs

Gold prices head into the next session after a record plunge on Friday, with spot bullion suffering its sharpest daily drop since 1983. Spot gold tumbled 9.5% to $4,883.62 an ounce, while U.S. February futures closed down 11.4% at $4,745.10. Despite the selloff, gold remains on track for a monthly gain exceeding 13%. The slide came after Donald Trump tapped Kevin Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve and the dollar index rose 0.7%. Standard Chartered's Suki Cooper described the move as profit-taking — locking in gains — driven by shifts in the dollar and real yields, or inflation-adjusted bond returns. Nicky Shiels, strategist at MKS PAMP SA, called January “the most volatile month” in precious metals.

Silver price today: record $120 spike fades as safe-haven demand meets Fed uncertainty

By 0947 GMT, spot silver edged up 0.7% to $117.42 after peaking at $120.45.

MARKET CALENDAR

Key Events Today

The catalysts most likely to move markets.

#1

U.S. index futures reopen at 18:00 ET

This is the clearest scheduled U.S.-market price-discovery point today and can transmit weekend news into equity-index futures before Monday's cash session.

#2

New Zealand retail sales at 18:45 ET

The Q2 retail package can move NZD and regional risk sentiment. Spillover to U.S. assets is usually secondary unless the result is unusually large.

#3

No scheduled domestic U.S. data or corporate reports

The absence of U.S. releases, earnings, IPO pricings and split events leaves fewer scheduled catalysts, increasing the relative importance of weekend headlines and positioning at the futures reopen.
