NYMEX Gold and Silver Futures Trade Higher on Thursday, Feb 5

Gold and silver futures trade higher on NYMEX as Asian equities rise and U.S. dollar weakness eases supply-side pressure on precious metals. COMPOSITE DATA: Gold (GLD) futures closed at $2,341.20, up 0.7%, while silver (SIL) futures ended at $29.85, up 0.9% as of 20:00 UTC on February 5, 2026. The upward momentum follows a weaker U.S. dollar and improved risk sentiment after Asian markets posted gains, suggesting continued outflow of capital from Treasuries into safe-haven assets.
