Gold prices rose to a two-week peak on November 5, 2026. The dollar and oil prices dropped, and Treasury yields declined after the US midterm elections. Gold climbed 1.6% to $4,124.89 per ounce. Prices exceeded $4,000 as Democrats made substantial gains in the elections. Higher gold prices resulted from a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, which are favored by investors.
“Higher gold prices resulted from a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, which are favored by investors,” — Elena Iversen, policy watcher at Greyley Field Financial, added during the briefing.
