Gold traded at $4,307.75 on September 2, 2026, posting a 24-hour decline of 1.58% as selling pressure continued to weigh on the precious metal.

The weekly performance tells a more pronounced story, with gold shedding 6.83% over the past seven days — a notable pullback for an asset that had been gaining ground over the broader monthly horizon.

Despite the recent weakness, gold's 30-day change stands at a gain of 6.42%, indicating that the metal is still trading well above where it stood a month ago. The divergence between the short-term and medium-term figures suggests the recent slide follows an extended run higher.
