Spot gold rose USD 129 to USD 4,059 an ounce at the November 4 close, its biggest gain since mid-August, after Democrats took control of both chambers of Congress in the U.S. midterm elections. On November 5 prices extended gains to USD 4,066, as the dollar hit a one-month low while investors weighed the possibility of Democrats pushing tighter control over the AI sector, which could slow economic growth. CME's FedWatch tool showed markets pricing an 83% chance of a Fed rate hike in December, while Brent crude above USD 100 kept inflation concerns alive. Silver rose 4.9%, platinum 5.6% and palladium 7.5% in the November 4 session.

- Gold price today 3/11: Rising again after leaving 3-month low
On the morning of 3/11, SJC, Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải and PNJ bar gold was quoted at 138.2–141.2 million dong per lượng (buy–sell), up 1.2 million dong per lượng. Ring gold rose 700,000 to 1.5 million dong per lượng, the second straight session of gains after leaving a 3-month low. On Kitco, world gold was at 3,945 USD/ounce, up 71 USD from the same time yesterday, supported as crude oil fell more than 4%, easing inflation worries and reinforcing expectations that the Fed does not need to tighten too hard. A weaker USD and US Treasury yields also fuelled bottom-fishing buying, but tensions in the Gulf, persistent inflation and the possibility of further Fed tightening still weigh on the outlook. The article says it is too early to confirm the rebound as a sustained recovery trend.
- Gold ring and gold bar prices on Nov 3 at SJC, PNJ, DOJI, Bảo Tín Minh Châu and Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải rise by up to 1.5 million VND per tael
Domestic gold prices rose sharply on the morning of Nov 3: SJC gold bars climbed 1.2 million VND per tael on both buy and sell sides to 138.2–141.2 million VND per tael across the surveyed brands, while gold rings gained 500,000 to 1.5 million VND per tael, with selling prices at 138–139.7 million VND per tael. On the international market, spot gold traded at US$3,952 per ounce early in the session, up 0.17%, after rising 1.84% in the week's first session and rebounding from a one-year low, as lower oil prices eased inflation concerns and a weaker dollar offered support. Markets still expected the Fed to raise rates in December, though the CME FedWatch probability fell to 76.6% from 80% a week earlier, while investors watched the US midterm elections on Nov 3.
- Inflation next wave could be building as energy costs spread through economy
Producer prices rose 1.3% from August to September and 6.3% from a year earlier, the fastest wholesale inflation rate since 2022, driven mainly by higher fuel costs. Transportation and warehousing prices jumped 3.4% in September and are 16% higher than last year, while core consumer prices rose 2.6% year over year and 0.3% month to month, signaling that price pressures are spreading beyond energy. Diesel averaged $6.32 a gallon, compared with $3.64 a year earlier, as high energy prices linked to the war with Iran drove renewed inflation. The buildout of AI data centers is also pushing up costs for chips, computer parts and electrical components. Businesses may soon pass these costs to consumers, and markets widely expect the Federal Reserve, which has already raised rates, to hike again this year, though the timing is uncertain.
- Global Gold Prices Fall Again
Gold extended its losses on Nov. 3 after a brief rebound, as a stronger US dollar and rising Treasury yields weighed on the metal while investors awaited US midterm election results. Spot gold fell 0.5% to $3,927.49 an ounce after dipping as low as $3,893.31 during the session, and US December gold futures slipped 0.8% to $3,936.80. Oil prices dropped about 2% to a three-week low as markets weighed prospects for ending the conflicts in Ukraine and Iran. Analysts said a decisive Democratic win in both chambers could pressure the dollar and support gold, while CME FedWatch showed the probability of a Fed rate hike in December at 73%, down from 76% earlier that day. The World Gold Council cut its 2026 gold investment demand forecast to 200 tonnes from 400 tonnes but raised its forecast for central bank purchases, after central banks net bought 321 tonnes in the three months to the end of September.
- Gold Prices Surge on the Evening of November 2
Spot gold rose 2.3% to $3,963.80 per ounce on the evening of November 2, according to Kitco data, rebounding after a 3.6% drop on Friday to its lowest level since October 2025. Oil fell more than 6% as Iran and Qatar entered a third consecutive day of talks aimed at ending the conflict involving the US, Israel and Iran, easing inflation concerns and expectations of prolonged high US interest rates, while a weaker US dollar also supported gold. CME FedWatch put the odds of a Fed rate hike in December at 76.6%, down from 80% a week earlier. Gold's 14-day RSI rose to about 37 from below 30, which the article says means gold has moved out of technically oversold territory. Julius Baer analyst Carsten Menke said the outcome of the US midterm elections on November 3 is unlikely to significantly change the US fiscal outlook in a way that strongly affects gold prices.
- Gold steadies above $4,000 as traders await Fed decision, PCE data
Gold held above $4,000 an ounce on Wednesday as bargain hunters entered ahead of the Federal Reserve's interest-rate decision, while investors weighed easing oil prices and renewed enthusiasm for AI stocks against persistent inflation risks. Spot gold was steady at $4,061.96 an ounce and U.S. gold futures rose marginally to $4,075.80. Silver was flat at $54.4065, platinum fell 0.1% to $1,542.63, and the U.S. Dollar Index edged up 0.02% to 102.34. Gold dropped to its lowest level since mid-July as investors sold bullion to cover losses when tech stocks fell, but buying from Chinese households and physical buyers has helped limit the decline, according to ANZ. The Fed is widely expected to hold rates, though traders still anticipate a possible hike before year-end as high energy costs sustain inflation concerns.

Latest news
- 6-month currency swap: Supporting liquidity, easing interest rate pressure
Mr. Nguyễn Thế Minh, Director of Investment Banking at ABS Securities, views the State Bank of Vietnam's 6-month foreign currency–VND swap operation as a suitable measure to support VND funding for credit institutions as interbank rates have trended upward. Exchange rate pressure has eased significantly compared with last year, creating favorable conditions for the operation. The relatively favorable swap cost could help banks balance liquidity and ease short-term interest rate pressure, while household deposits have recently risen. However, the maximum size of USD 2 billion and the 6-month tenor mainly address temporary liquidity needs and do not solve long-term funding issues.
- Why are banks cutting staff en masse?
Staffing in the banking sector is diverging: many banks have cut jobs after restructuring, while others are still hiring. KienlongBank's headcount fell by 1,078 to 2,596 in just one quarter as of 30 September, tied to network reorganisation and a shift to multichannel service; Sacombank cut 3,738 staff in the first six months, and Eximbank's headcount fell by 783 from the start of the year to 5,358. By contrast, ACB added 236 staff to reach 12,691. Expert Nguyễn Quang Huy says the adjustments reflect business model transition and changing skill needs rather than a negative layoff wave, while Dr. Châu Đình Linh says digitalisation and automation are accelerating restructuring, with fewer but higher-quality staff.
- Why Horace Mann Educators stock soared today
Horace Mann Educators reported third-quarter results after the market close on Tuesday, and its stock rose nearly 6% the next day. Revenue was just over $439 million, marginally higher year over year, while core non-GAAP net income rose 50% to more than $85 million, or $2.06 per share, an all-time high. Both figures beat analyst estimates of $323 million in revenue and $1.08 per share. CEO Marita Zuraitis credited strong property and casualty underwriting, higher net investment income and growth across diversified businesses. The company raised its full-year core EPS guidance to $5.75–$5.95 from $4.60–$4.90, its second consecutive raise, and the author says the investor reaction was, if anything, understated.
