Gold Surges Past Five Thousand Dollars Amid Market Volatility
The increase follows a dip below $4,500 on Monday after US President Donald Trump nominated former Federal Reserve governor Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair. Silver also saw gains, rising 3.7% to $88.2 per ounce.
Gold has been performing strongly this year, with January marking a 13.2% surge—its best monthly gain since September 1999—driven by global geopolitical tensions. Market concerns over US efforts to acquire Greenland and expectations of a weaker dollar amid stable Fed policy contributed to the price rise. Gold began 2026 at $4,313 per ounce and reached a record $5,598 last week.
