Egypt Gold Prices Drop 35 Pounds
Gold prices in the Egyptian and global markets declined significantly on Monday, September 7,, 2026. The price of 21-karat gold per gram dropped by approximately 35 pounds, reaching 6,290 pounds. The traded ounce on the international exchange decreased by $40 to approximately $4,390. This decline followed data indicating a rise in the U.S. labor market and a strong economy, which increased the likelihood of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates to around 58% at the September 16 meeting. This expectation led to higher Treasury bond yields and reduced the attractiveness of gold. Although rising oil prices and geopolitical tensions typically support gold as a safe haven, the current increase in bond yields and rate hikes are diminishing its appeal. Markets are also watching U.S. inflation indicators, which could influence Federal Reserve decisions in the future. Data shows that both domestic and international gold prices are reflecting a state of balance, with a marginal gap that is not impactful. Meanwhile, ongoing inflationary and economic tensions continue to dominate market sentiments.
