Gold fell sharply last week as rising oil prices, inflation worries and expectations of further Fed tightening outweighed safe-haven demand, and a tech stock sell-off triggered asset liquidation that pushed prices below 4,000 USD per ounce. In Kitco News' survey, 7 of 17 experts (41%) expect gold to keep falling, 4 (24%) expect a rise and 6 (35%) see a flat or unclear trend, while 67 of 161 individual investors in an online poll expect a rise and 41 a decline. Marc Chandler cites weak technicals, with resistance at 4,065-4,075 USD, Adrian Day expects two-way trade with 4,000 USD holding, and James Stanley sees a rebound and 4,000 USD as a key support. Kevin Grady says weak liquidity is amplifying price swings, and the Fed, ECB, BoC and BoJ all announce rate decisions next week.

- Gold prices break $4,000 as investors brace for crucial test
Spot gold closed Friday, October 23, at about $3,995.80 an ounce after dipping as low as $3,975.64, slipping below the $4,000 level. For the week it fell roughly 4%, its worst performance since June, and it sits nearly 29% below January’s $5,595 peak. The sell-off came as technology stocks also fell, with the Vanguard Information Technology ETF down 5% for the month, and as oil prices jumped on Middle East supply fears that revived inflation concerns. Bank of America’s technical strategist sees the July low at $3,943 as the key level: holding it could form a double bottom, while a break could point toward $3,886 and eventually $3,700. Investors are now looking to the Federal Reserve’s October 28 decision and the October 29 PCE inflation report for clues on rates and the dollar.
- Daily Gold Trading Report - Friday , October 23 , 2026
The Daily Gold Trading Report for October 23, 2026 puts spot gold near $4,004 after an overnight drop to the $4,000 area. Price sits below the 20-hour and 50-hour moving averages, and the report rates the bias as bearish, while the hourly RSI at 14.7 is deeply oversold, which is why the test of $4,000 produced a bounce. Key support is listed at $3,987 and $3,980, with resistance at $4,030, and the June lows near $3,950 are flagged as the next level to watch. The Fed is in its pre-meeting blackout ahead of the October 27 to 28 FOMC, with markets pricing a December hike at 88 to 90% on CME FedWatch and the 10-year Treasury yield near 5.00%. Brent touched $111.99, a five-month high, while the dollar index held near 101.6.
- World's Largest Gold Fund Dumps Over 10 Tonnes of Gold as Prices Slide
SPDR Gold Trust, the world's largest gold fund, continued net selling of nearly 12 tonnes of gold in the 22/10 session, bringing total sales over 2 sessions to nearly 15 tonnes and cutting its holdings to about 1,046 tonnes. Spot gold fell more than 2.8% to around USD 4,025 per ounce at the close of 22/10, and briefly dipped below USD 4,000 per ounce in the morning session of 23/10. Tensions in the Middle East pushed crude oil prices higher, raising concerns about inflation and further Fed tightening, and gold has still not attracted sustained safe-haven demand even as US Treasury yields fell. US September CPI rose 0.6% month on month and 3.7% year on year, while PPI rose 1.3% and 6.3%. Markets price about an 84% chance the Fed holds rates steady at its 27-28/10 meeting and a 16% chance of a 25 basis-point increase; September PCE data due on 29/10 is the next key factor to watch.
- Afternoon of October 22: Gold ring price at one company suddenly drops sharply
On the afternoon of October 22, gold bar prices at SJC, PNJ, DOJI, Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải and Bảo Tín Minh Châu were unchanged from the morning, while Phú Quý cut 300,000 VND per tael on both buy and sell sides. Among 9999 gold rings, prices diverged: SJC lowered its buy price by 1.1 million VND per tael and its sell price by 600,000 VND, while DOJI raised both by 200,000 VND to 138.2–142.2 million VND per tael. Sell prices for gold rings across the surveyed brands ranged from 140.3 to 142.2 million VND per tael, a gap of 1.9 million VND. Internationally, gold traded around $4,100–4,130 per ounce, under pressure from prospects of further Fed rate hikes and supply uncertainty in the Strait of Hormuz.
- Gold eases as investors await Fed signals on rate path
Spot gold fell 0.6% to US$4,115.50 an ounce in early Asian trade on Thursday, after hitting its lowest since Oct 15 the previous day, as investors awaited the Fed's Oct 27–28 policy meeting. Nearly all economists polled by Reuters expect the Fed to skip a hike in October and raise rates in December, and CME's FedWatch Tool shows a 90% probability of a December increase, which typically weighs on non-yielding gold. Saudi air defences intercepted a drone aimed at Saudi Aramco's Shaybah oil field, killing 2 people, and the U.S. has ordered some diplomats and family members to leave its Saudi missions. Spot silver fell 1.1% to US$57.33 an ounce, while platinum and palladium also declined.
- Gold Fund Gains 0.34% as Silver Fund Rises 0.27% | Gold & Silver, Oct 21
The gold fund GLD rose 0.34% to US$378.90 and the silver fund SLV gained 0.27% to US$52.26 on Wednesday 21 October, while the gold-miners fund GDX rose 0.72%. A dealer report from USAGOLD put spot gold near US$4,120 an ounce and spot silver near US$57.30, down about 1%, so the fund and spot readings for silver moved in different directions. The article could not confirm an official spot price or a single trigger for the day's move. Traders are weighing further US interest-rate rises ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting on 27–28 October. Polymarket bets gave 69.0% to two Fed rate rises in 2026, on US$1.13 million traded; the article stresses these are bets, not forecasts.

- What Will 10 Ethereum (ETH) Be Worth by 2030?
The article estimates what 10 Ethereum (ETH) could be worth by 2030 under different price scenarios. At about $2,335 per ETH, 10 ETH is worth about $23,350, and ETH trades 52.8% below its all-time high of $4,946. The price fell 12.5% over the past month and 40.4% over the past year, but rose 24.6% over the last 90 days from a June low of $1,505. The article calls $5,000 the most realistic base case, which would make 10 ETH worth $50,000, while $10,000 (a market cap above $1 trillion) appears less likely. If ETH falls below $1,505, a bear case could leave 10 ETH valued at just $15,000. The piece also notes that cumulative net inflows into U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs fell to $12.7 billion, and that JPMorgan's and BlackRock's tokenization moves on Ethereum have had little immediate effect on the price.
- More pain may be coming for the AI trade. Why I’m not giving up on it
The author argues the AI trade is collapsing, using Meta as an example: a large earlier rally has largely faded after the company announced a huge prospective capital raise to fund infrastructure it had expected to self-fund. He asks whether Microsoft, Alphabet or Amazon could face similar pressure, and names consumer staples such as Kimberly-Clark, Coca-Cola and Procter & Gamble as alternatives. The article also cites local opposition to data centers over water use and electricity rates, and Nvidia's support for neoclouds such as CoreWeave, Nebius and Iren, which buy its chips. CoreWeave's stock fell sharply over its high-yield debt, and its ability to service that debt was questioned as funding from the prospective IPOs of Anthropic and OpenAI remained unclear. The author maintains that AI is not going away.
- 3 Genius Quantum Computing Stocks to Buy Now
The article argues useful quantum computing may arrive sooner than many investors expect, with industry leaders now pointing to 2029 instead of 2030. The author proposes a basket of three stocks ranging from aggressive to conservative: IonQ, Alphabet and Nvidia. IonQ is described as the most aggressive pick, with a 256-qubit system due next year and several systems already sold via preorder, though its risks are high. Alphabet is developing its Willow chip and could offer quantum computing through Google Cloud, while Nvidia is called the most conservative pick because it focuses on GPUs and has developed NVQLink to connect quantum computers to existing infrastructure. The article notes that Alphabet, which self-funds its quantum work, may be quieter about its progress without that signaling trouble.
- 5 Insurance Stocks to Buy for a Decade of Rising Dividends
The article highlights five insurance stocks, Aflac (AFL), Chubb (CB), Cincinnati Financial (CINF), Old Republic (ORI) and Travelers (TRV), which the author considers suited to long-term, dividend-focused investors. Aflac has raised its dividend for 45 consecutive years and has a forward dividend yield of about 2%, while its outstanding share count has fallen by nearly 100 million, or nearly 16%, since 2022; however, its latest dividend increase was only 5.1%. Chubb delivered 105% total returns over five years versus 83% for the S&P 500, with a forward dividend yield of 1.15% and a 33-year record of consecutive dividend growth. Cincinnati Financial has raised its dividend for 66 consecutive years, but reported underwriting losses in Q2 with a combined ratio above 100%, and 40% of its investment portfolio is in stocks.
- NuScale Power Trades Below $6 With the Only NRC-Certified Small Modular Reactor Design. Here's Why That Still Isn't Enough.
NuScale Power is the only small modular reactor provider with design approval from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), and its components are already in commercial production, but it has not secured any binding commercial power purchase agreements for a full-scale plant. Second-quarter revenue was just $75,000 against a consensus estimate of nearly $9 million, while the net loss widened from $37.6 million to $50.1 million. The company holds almost $2 billion in cash and equivalents and has no debt, but faces a class action lawsuit alleging it misled investors about partner ENTRA1's capabilities, which NuScale denies. The author argues these headwinds outweigh the NRC approval and suggests investors wait until the legal issues are resolved and a revenue stream is secured.
- Will Solana Ever Hit $1,000? What It Would Take From $100
SOL would need to rise nearly tenfold from about $101 to reach $1,000, implying a market cap of about $589.8 billion versus roughly $59.5 billion now, and it trades 65.6% below its $293 peak. Solana has no maximum supply, and staking inflation keeps minting new tokens. Cumulative net inflows into U.S. spot Solana ETFs have fallen from $1.62 billion on September 29 to $1.54 billion, even as the Alpenglow upgrade cut transaction finality to about 150 milliseconds. The author judges SOL unlikely to hit $1,000 before 2028, with a probability below 10%.
