Line chart of gold futures falling from an August 27 peak to a six-week low on September 21, 2026.

Gold fell to its lowest level in six weeks on September 21, 2026, with the decline accelerating after the US Federal Reserve raised rates on September 16. Higher real yields increase the cost of holding an asset that pays no income, and that effect is currently outweighing safe-haven demand tied to the ongoing Middle East conflict. Large Canadian gold producers such as Agnico Eagle and Barrick are the TSX-listed companies most exposed to a sustained pullback.
