Gold futures finish lower as dollar, bonds rise

06 Oct 2026 Evaluate
Gold futures finished lower on Monday, saddled by the strength in dollar and on rising bond yield notes. However, some gains remained trimmed on fading expectations for a Fed rate hike later this month after recent soft US jobs data.

Gold futures for December delivery down by $5.50 or 0.13% to $4,156.80 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile. While, spot gold slipped by $10.93 or 0.26% to $4,128.57 an ounce.
