New York, Feb 26, 2026, 17:11 — After-hours Gold prices didn't budge much Thursday, with traders eyeing every scrap of news from U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations. Spot gold hovered at $5,168.72 an ounce; U.S. gold futures slipped 0.6% to finish at $5,194.20. Razan Hilal of FOREX.com pointed out that gold just couldn’t hold above $5,200, calling it “a resistance level” where sellers typically appear. She cautioned a geopolitical breakthrough could trigger a pullback. Peter Grant at Zaner Metals still saw “enough uncertainty out there,” keeping his focus on higher marks—$5,340.72 and $5,400—even as he acknowledged the risk of short-term drops. Source
