Gold prices reached to a two-week maximum on November 5, 2026. The dollar and oil prices declined, and Treasury yields dropped 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 were driven by a weaker dollar and lower Treasury yields, which appeal to investors.
“Prices exceeded $4,000 as Democrats made substantial gains in the elections,” — Owen Marlowe, senior market analyst at Newstone Field Services, added during the briefing.
