World Gold brief based on reporting byPluang
Brief

Reported by Pluang: “Gold miners outperformed all S&P 500 sectors in Q3 despite September gold price drop.”. Gold settled at $4,216 an ounce on October 9, 2026 — $135.56 per gram, +1.43% on the day.

Why it matters

Changes in production, costs and reserves affect future metal availability. The impact is slower than rates or the dollar, but material for the long-term supply balance. The COMEX settlement that session moved +1.43%, so the headline and the close diverge. The usual reason: an intraday move, a different currency, or a different horizon.
