Gold Prices Near $4,000/Ounce Amid Inflation and Demand
What happened
On October 29, 2026, Stafford and Wallen assessed gold value for their clients. Current gold prices are hovering just above $4,000 an ounce, having nearly doubled since the fall of 2022 when the price was around $1,600 an ounce. This spike is attributed to inflation, investor demand, and central bank purchases.

Why it matters
The significant rise in gold prices means that older gold and silver items, such as jewelry purchased in the 1990s or early 2000s, could now be worth substantially more than their original cost. This trend is driving increased interest in gold valuation services.
