Precious metals prices today 26/6/2026: Gold rebounds near +1% on US inflation data while silver, palladium, and platinum stay under pressure

In the last 24 hours, precious metals showed a mixed picture as global prices adjusted after US inflation data. For gold, the market turned upward, supported by the latest inflation-related signals.

Global gold rose to 6,117.5 USD/lb, up from 6,123.5 USD/lb in the previous day, but still below the levels seen 7 and 30 days ago (6,337 and 6,333 USD/lb respectively). This indicates a recovery attempt after a recent decline.

Palladium traded at 1,191 USD/oz, unchanged versus the previous day at 1,191 USD/oz, but down versus 7 days ago (1,264.5 USD/oz) and sharply lower than 30 days ago (1,415 USD/oz).

Platinum was quoted at 1,609.3 USD/oz, slightly below the previous day’s 1,611.1 USD/oz. It also remains well under earlier readings at 7 days ago (1,668.2 USD/oz) and 30 days ago (1,931.4 USD/oz).

Silver (global) stood at 57.795 USD/oz, down from 58.04 USD/oz in the previous day, and significantly below 7 days ago (64.91 USD/oz) and 30 days ago (74.875 USD/oz), reflecting continued weakness.

News flow over the day highlighted that gold prices increased by nearly 1% following US inflation data, while domestic reporting also pointed to SJC gold trading around 146.2 million VND/tael. At the same time, silver was described as continuing to fall, and commentary noted that the gold rebound does not necessarily mean the downward trend has fully ended.
