Gold price slips from record highs as U.S. data lifts dollar, Fed meeting looms

New York, January 16, 2026, 06:17 EST — Premarket Gold prices dipped again on Friday, following a slide from the day before as robust U.S. economic data boosted the dollar and cooled appetite for safe-haven assets. Spot gold dropped 0.3% to $4,603.02 an ounce by 0918 GMT.
