Gold prices climbed to a two-week maximum on November 5, 2026. The dollar and oil prices dropped, and Treasury yields fell after the US midterm elections. Gold climbed 1.6% to $4,124.89 per ounce. Prices surpassed $4,000 as Democrats gained significantly in the elections. Higher gold prices came from a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, which appeal to investors.
“Higher gold prices came from a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, which appeal to investors,” — Nadia Ashcombe, policy watcher at Shipton Brook Media, added during the briefing.
