Globally, gold and silver prices weakened on Thursday as traders locked in profits after recent rallies.

According to goldprice.org, spot gold stood at $5,187.16 per ounce, down 19.96 points or 0.38% as of Feb. 26 at 11:23 p.m. New York time.

Meanwhile, April gold futures fell $25.2 to around $5,191.3, while March silver dropped $4.238 to $86.81.

Jim Wyckoff, a commodity analyst at Kitco Metals, said the declines reflected short-term profit-taking by futures traders after the recent rally had triggered a new short-term upward trend in prices.

The profit-taking coincided with the third round of nuclear talks between the United States and Iran in Geneva, just days before President Donald Trump’s deadline for a potential deal.

Both countries have been locked in months of tense negotiations over Iran’s nuclear activities, with Oman acting as mediator during talks at its embassy in Geneva, according to reports cited by Bloomberg.

Trump previously gave Iran a March 1–6 deadline to reach an agreement, warning of possible military action if negotiations fail, raising concerns of renewed conflict in the Middle East.

Precious metals also faced pressure as geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe escalated, after Russia launched drone and missile attacks on Ukraine hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Trump discussed the next steps in peace negotiations.
