Gold Rebounds as Investors Raise Odds to 78.4% for Fed Rate Hold in October After Weak Jobs Data
Gold prices rebounded today after weak employment figures eased investors' concerns about interest rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve. As of 9:37 pm Thailand time, spot gold rose 0.43 dollars, or 0.01%, to 4,140.10 dollars per ounce, while COMEX December gold futures gained 7.00 dollars, or 0.17%, to 4,169.30 dollars per ounce. Investors increased their bets that the Fed will hold rates steady at its October meeting after the US Labor Department reported that nonfarm payrolls rose by only 29,000 in September, below analysts' forecast of 89,000, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, against expectations that it would remain steady at 4.1%. The latest CME Group FedWatch Tool indicates that investors now assign a 78.4% probability to the Fed holding rates at 3.75-4.00% in October, up from just 29.1% a week earlier, and a 21.6% probability to a 0.25% rate hike to 4.00-4.25%, down from as much as 70.9% previously. However, gold's gains were capped by a stronger dollar, while investors await the minutes of the Fed's September monetary policy meeting, due for release on Wednesday.

Pan American Silver Plans $40-$43 Million 2026 Timmins Capital, $146 Million Camp Project
Pan American Silver Corp. estimates 2026 project capital of $40-$43 million for its Timmins operation in Ontario, where it expects to produce 105.5-115 thousand ounces of gold at an estimated AISC of $2,575-$2,675 per ounce. The Timmins operations consist of the Timmins West and Bell Creek underground gold mines, which supply ore to the Bell Creek processing plant with a design capacity of 5,600 tons per day and current throughput of 4,400 tons per day. Timmins produced 103.6 thousand ounces of gold in 2025 at an AISC of $2,443 per ounce, and the company plans to drill 118,000 meters at Timmins in 2026. In June 2026, Pan American Silver identified mineral resources at the Bell Creek mine and satellite deposits, and it is proceeding with a conceptual plan for phased development of these new resources. The company has commenced the first phase of the Timmins Camp Project following board approval and a total investment of $146 million.

OceanaGold Reports High-Grade Wharekirauponga Drill Results
OceanaGold reported new drilling results from its Wharekirauponga project in New Zealand in late September 2026, highlighting multiple wide, high-grade gold intercepts that reinforce the continuity of the southern high-grade EG Vein and associated hanging-wall structures. Drilling has accelerated with five active rigs, and promising intercepts outside the current resource model point to a potentially larger, better-defined mineralized system that could influence future resource classification and project planning. The company's narrative projects $2.2 billion in revenue and $764.2 million in earnings by 2028, requiring 12.7% yearly revenue growth and a $388.4 million earnings increase from $375.8 million today. The update comes as OceanaGold plans the April 2027 retirement of CEO Gerard Bond, who is set to stay on as a Special Advisor for six months. Before this Wharekirauponga update, the most pessimistic analysts were still penciling in about US$2.6 billion of revenue and US$1.4 billion of earnings by 2029.

GlobalHua Seng Heng says gold will stay volatile on Fed and bond yields, recommends Gold Futures as a tool
Warawut Benjaputharak, Managing Director of Hua Seng Heng Gold Futures Co., Ltd., disclosed that short-term gold price direction remains volatile due to two main factors: a slowing labor market, which eases pressure on the Fed to raise rates and is a positive for gold, and long-term bond yields that remain at high levels, along with concerns over inflation and the U.S. fiscal position, which continue to cap any price recovery. Global gold faced heavy volatility after the United States reported that September non-farm payrolls rose by only 29,000, below market expectations, while the unemployment rate edged up from 4.1% to 4.2%. As a result, gold prices initially rebounded but were unable to hold above 4,200 dollars, before falling back to around 4,130 to 4,150 dollars per ounce. Investors should therefore keep a close watch on the bond market, especially the 10-year bond yield, real yields, and the dollar, alongside inflation data, the labor market, and energy prices. In a highly risky market environment, using tools such as Gold Futures and Mini Gold Online Futures to speculate along the trend and to hedge risk is highly beneficial.

Bundesbank President Says Surging Government Debt Bolsters Case for Central Banks to Buy More Gold
Joachim Nagel, President of Germany's central bank, said that soaring government debt around the world is giving central banks more reason to diversify their international reserves into gold, amid concerns over credit risk and geopolitical uncertainty. Speaking at a conference in Sorrento, Italy, he said that while rising government bond yields make debt instruments comparatively more attractive, higher debt levels also fuel concerns about the credit quality of these assets. Germany holds the world's second-largest gold reserves, but its holdings have barely changed over the past several years, in contrast to many central banks that have sharply accelerated their gold purchases, with the war in Ukraine serving as a key turning point after the United States imposed financial sanctions on Russia. Meanwhile, a survey of 74 central banks by the World Gold Council, published in June, found that 45% plan to buy more gold over the next 12 months, the highest share since the survey began in 2018, and only one central bank said it planned to reduce its gold holdings.
