Key information

On 2026년 10월 4일, domestic gold prices in South Korea declined compared to the previous trading day, continuing a downward trend driven by international market adjustments, a strong US dollar, and rising US Treasury yields.

According to the Korea Gold Exchange, pure gold priced at 3.75g fell when purchasing and selling, while international spot gold hovered at early $4100 levels, reaching $4142.13 per ounce on the morning of 2026년 10월 4일.

Market analysts note that the strong US dollar and high Treasury yields reduce the investment appeal of non-interest-bearing gold, while geopolitical risks, international crude oil prices, and Federal Reserve policy expectations continue to influence fluctuations.

Additionally, retail prices at the Korea Gold Exchange differ from the Korea Exchange KRX spot market standards due to applied value-added tax, distribution fees, and distinct trading unit differences.
