Gold resumes after decline: investors buy assets ahead of US inflation data On Friday, gold prices increased by more than 1%, continuing to fall to the lowest minimum seen before. The positive dynamics were ensured by the so-called “minds behind the discounts” - investors who take advantage of the temporary decrease in prices for the profitable purchase of assets. Meanwhile, market participants focused on key data on inflation in the United States, which could influence further policy of the Federal Reserve System (FRS). Previously, on Thursday, gold lost nearly 3% of its value, falling below the psychological level of 5,000 dollars. The reason for the resale was strong statistics from the United States: the American economy created 130,000 new workers, which significantly exceeded analysts’ forecasts (70,000). Such data changed the hopes of investors due to the Federal Reserve's reduction in interest rates.
However, experts remain optimistic. Independent analyst Ross Norman added:
“These ruins, it seems, do not lie with the fundamental indicators of the market, and not them at all, and the fundamental indicators in the whole complex (precious metals) become less positive.”
The situation with other metals Silver: showed a sharp decline of 3.9% to $78.11 an ounce, extending after an 11% drop in the hour before the session. Platinum: rose 1.4% to $2,027.60. Paladium: adding 1.7%, reaching 1,644.24 dollars. As the day continues to grow, platinum and palladium are still preparing to end the year with gains. #GOLD #Silver $XAU
US inflation came in below expectations for headline CPI (both m/m and y/y), indicating a moderation in price pressures. Core inflation was in line with forecasts but accelerated compared to the previous month.
Overall, the data is moderately positive for markets and could support expectations for a more accommodative Fed policy. $BNB

#CPIWatch #GOLD #XAU 02/13/2026 At the close of trading on December 12, the spot price of gold fell by 162 dollars to 4,920 dollars per ounce. This is the lowest price for this year. Before the morning of February 13, the price dropped to 4911 dollars. World prices for gold fell sharply on 12 February. The market declined due to strong employment data in the US, which changed the likelihood of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve System (FRS) from a short-term perspective. The fall in prices for high-value metals below 5,000 dollars has further increased the pressure on sellers.
“Gold was even more volatile the rest of the time, with a lot of people placing stop-loss orders when the price fell below $5,000 or rose above $5,100. The cooling of prices led to the appearance of sell orders,” explained Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst
Data published on February 11 showed that the US market, having launched a new river, was more optimistic and less resilient. The number of new workers in the city increased by 130,000 in 2025 after decreasing by 48,000 in 2025. The unemployment rate dropped further to 4.3%. It also showed that the number of initial applications for unemployment assistance last year changed to 227,000.
These figures will give the Fed even more influence in the economy and complicate the reduction of interest rates in the short-term perspective. Gold prices are increasingly being squeezed by periods of high interest rates, leaving many unable to pay the fixed interest rate.
Investors will now be on the lookout for a report on inflation in the US, which will be published on February 13th to provide additional data on the Fed's monetary policy. “Inflation is likely to fall from 2.7% to 2.5% or return to 2.4%. This will create a sense of urgency by lowering interest rates, thereby driving up gold prices,” commented Peter Grant, metals strategist at Zaner Metals.
The spot price for silver also fell by 9% to 76.50 dollars per ounce. Platinum fell by 5%, to 2032 dollars. Paladium fell in price by 3%, closing at 1,648 dollars.
On the US stock market on December 12, all three major indices fell sharply. The DJIA index lost 1.3% to 49,451 points. The S&P 500 index decreased by 1.6% to 6,832 points. The Nasdaq Composite Index lost 2%, closing at 22,597 points.
Wall Street stocks fell as investors were overwhelmed by the negative effects of human intelligence, such as the collapse of business models among wealthy industrialists and rising unemployment. Shares of financial, logistics, fixed-income and software companies collapsed under pressure due to the infusion of piece intelligence. Morgan Stanley shares fell 4.9%, CH Robinson – by as much as 14%, and Palantir Technology – by as much as 5%.
And as a result, shares of Havanese companies have grown. Shares of Walmart and Coca-Cola grew by 3.8% and 0.5% consistently. The group of consumer staples and utilities in the S&P 500 Index also grew by less than 1%. $XAU $XAG

#GoldSilverRally #XAU #GOLD Gold prices fell on Thursday as robust US employment data dampened expectations of an imminent Federal Reserve interest rate cut, outweighing support from ongoing geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran.
The spot price of gold XAU= fell 0.4% to $2,059.87 per ounce.
The decline in the precious metal weighed on mining stocks across the sector. US-based Newmont (NY:NEM) fell slightly, while Barrick Gold (NY:GOLD) (TSX:ABX) fell 1.3%.
South African miners also came under pressure, with Gold Fields (NY:GFI) (JSE:GFIJ) falling 1.5%. Other South African operators, Sibanye Stillwater (New York: SBSW) (JSE: SSWJ) and Harmony Gold (New York: HMY) (JSE: HARJ), declined slightly.
Among Canadian miners, Agnico Eagle Mines (TSX: AEM) declined slightly, while Kinross Gold (TSX: K) fell 1.2%.

The spot price of gold fell 0.5% to $5,055.24 per ounce at 06:42 GMT. Previously, metal increased in price by 1% more. Gold futures in the US fell in price by 0.4% to $5,077.30 per ounce.
According to OCBC strategist Christopher Wong, a strong voice from the US market is calling for a quick easing of the Fed's monetary policy, which curbed the rise in gold prices.
The US dollar index followed unsatisfactory positive employment data, which indicated the resilience of the American economy. A valuable dollar to buy gold, denominated in American currency, is valuable for investors from other countries, which are now increasingly popular. Analysts also have a lot of respect for fiscal risks: according to the forecast of the US Congressional Budget Office, the regional budget deficit in 2026 will grow to 1.853 trillion dollars, which will contribute to the illegal economical picture.
According to Reuters, the Federal Reserve System is confident that rates will remain unchanged until the end of the term of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, and then lower rates are possible in the red.
In the meantime, investors will be aware of the recent increase in unemployment support for the fourth quarter of inflation statistics on Friday, which may provide new signals for the Fed's upcoming actions.
