U.S. gold miners' shares rise as spot gold prices exceed $4,600 per ounce for the first time, reaching a record high of $4,956.32. Investors are turning to safe-haven assets due to geopolitical uncertainties and a probe into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Major miners like Newmont and Barrick Mining see increases of 2.7% and 2.8%, respectively, while Agnico Eagle, Kinross Gold, and Anglogold Ashanti rise between 2.5% and 4.7%. Spot silver also reaches a record high at $84.60 per ounce.
