As of 9 AM ET today, April 22, 2026, the gold spot price is $4,753.20 per ounce, a decrease of 0.76% from yesterday’s price of $4,789.70. This equates to approximately $152.82 per gram and $152,818.51 per kilogram. The decline is primarily attributed to a surging U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) and rising Treasury yields, which typically create headwinds for non-yielding bullion. While geopolitical tensions involving Iran continue to provide a "safe-haven floor," the market is currently weighing these against hawkish Federal Reserve expectations that suggest interest rates may remain "higher for longer."
