Gold climbed 1.9% to $4,134.82 per ounce on Thursday morning, reaching a two-week high following the United States midterm elections. The rally comes as the dollar and Treasury yields weakened alongside declining energy prices. This marks a sharp reversal from last week's low, driven by short-covering across global commodities.
