How to read this historical table

Every price above is derived directly from the international XAU/USD spot rate on this date ($1,842/oz) using fixed weight constants — 1 troy ounce = 31.1035 g, 1 tola = 11.664 g, 1 baht = 15.244 g, 1 lượng = 37.5 g, 1 mesghal = 4.6083 g, and so on. These multipliers are mathematical, not market estimates, so the conversions are exact.

Prices are shown in US dollars only. Historical local-currency gold rates depended on the exchange rate at the time (January 14, 2021 rates for PKR, INR, AED and others were materially different from today). For an accurate same-date local-currency value, see the country-specific archive link below this section when available.

The figures are pure metal value at international parity — they do not include the import duty, VAT/GST, jeweller making charges, or dealer margin that would have applied at retail counters on this date. For wedding-jewellery or coin pricing context, retail in 22K commonly added 5–15% on top of the spot value shown here.

On this day — January 14, 2021

Gold fell 0.92% from the prior trading session ($1,858.90 → $1,841.80 per ounce).

Thursday — a normal trading day. Weekly US initial jobless claims publish at 8:30 AM ET on Thursdays, occasionally producing intraday gold movement.

January 2021 gold market: Reflation trade pressures gold

Bearish

Recovery optimism and rising yields pressured gold.

Gold eased from around $1,950 toward $1,850 early in 2021 as rising bond yields and optimism about vaccines and stimulus fuelled a 'reflation' rotation into cyclical assets and away from safe havens.

What drove gold in January 2021

  • rising US Treasury yields
  • vaccine-rollout optimism
  • rotation into cyclical assets
  • stronger US dollar
Themes#reflation#rising yields#risk-on rotation

Key events in January 2021

  1. Jan 6Yields jump after Georgia Senate runoffs; gold slips

What happened next

Rising yields kept pressuring gold to a March low near $1,680.

For gold buyers

2021 opened as a mirror image of 2020 — recovery optimism and rising yields did to gold what crisis and falling yields had done for it.
