Gold prices reached to a two-week peak on November 5, 2026. The dollar and oil prices declined, and Treasury yields declined after the US midterm elections. Gold rose 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 are favored by investors.
“Prices exceeded $4,000 as Democrats made substantial gains in the elections,” — Yusuf Calloway, policy watcher at Newstone Bury Group, observed.
