US private sector layoffs rise to a two-decade high AUGMONT BULLION REPORT
- Gold and silver prices are attempting to establish a base before the next upleg rise, following confirmation of supporting factors, including massive layoffs and the US government shutdown.
- In October, US challenger job losses tripled, marking the biggest increase in more than 20 years, as businesses cited a decline in customer demand. October saw 153,074 job cutbacks, up 183% from September and 175% from the same month the previous year. It has been the worst year for layoffs since 2009 and the worst amount for any October since 2003.
- A total of 1.1 million layoffs have been declared by companies this year, which is the most since the COVID-19 pandemic year of 2020 and a 65% increase from the previous year. The greatest number for a fourth-quarter month since 2008 was recorded in October.
- As the U.S. government enters its longest-ever shutdown, investors will be watching for any economic data from private sources while official data remains missing.
Technical Triggers
- Gold prices are expected to consolidate in the range of $3900 (~Rs 117,500) to $4060 (~ Rs 122,500) for the next few days, so buy on dips and sell on rallies.
- Silver prices are expected to consolidate in the range of 45.5(~Rs 140,000) and $49 (~Rs 150,000) for the next few days, so buy on dips and sell on rallies.

All That Glitters: The Jewellery Moments Everyone Talked About at the 2026 Golden Globes
From archival diamonds to playful brooches, Hollywood’s biggest night sparkled with fearless jewellery statements
The 2026 Golden Globes didn’t just celebrate cinematic brilliance—it redefined red-carpet glamour. Set against a newly designed red carpet at the Beverly Hills Hotel, the evening shimmered beneath four magnificent Swarovski crystal chandeliers, casting a radiant glow on Hollywood’s finest. But the true spectacle lay in the extraordinary jewellery moments that unfolded as stars stepped into the spotlight.
Teyana Taylor delivered one of the night’s most talked-about looks, pairing her Best Supporting Actress win for One Battle After Another with striking 1940s Tiffany & Co. earrings. The archival diamonds perfectly offset the playful audacity of her custom Schiaparelli gown, proving once again that classic jewels and modern fashion can collide spectacularly.
Zoë Kravitz championed the romantic return of the hair pin, wearing a bespoke creation by Jessica McCormack that felt both intimate and effortlessly chic. Meanwhile, Charli xcx leaned fully into Old Hollywood glamour, completing her custom Saint Laurent ensemble with cascading De Beers diamond strands that echoed timeless screen sirens.
Men’s jewellery continued its powerful rise on the Golden Globes carpet. Colman Domingo stood out with an elegant suite of Boucheron diamonds, styled as ivy-like tendrils flowing over his custom black Valentino tuxedo—an artful blend of couture and craftsmanship. Paul Mescal reaffirmed his love for refined accessories with a Cartier tie pin, while Connor Storrie brought playful elegance with Tiffany & Co.’s iconic Bird on a Rock brooch.
One of the most imaginative jewellery moments belonged to Wicked director Jon M. Chu, who wore two beaded figurative brooches depicting his co-stars and fellow nominees Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. Designed by Italy-based embroidery artist Nerd Bead—discovered by Chu on Instagram—the pieces added personality, storytelling and warmth to the red carpet.
Elsewhere, Emily Blunt sparkled in Tiffany & Co., Priyanka Chopra Jonas turned heads in Bulgari, Hailee Steinfeld chose the architectural elegance of Repossi, Claire Danes glowed in Pomellato, Natasha Lyonne dazzled in Chopard, Jennifer Lawrence opted for Swarovski, and Timothée Chalamet continued his refined jewellery streak with Cartier.
At the 2026 Golden Globes, jewellery wasn’t merely an accessory—it was a statement of individuality, creativity and evolving red-carpet expression. From archival diamonds to bold brooches, the night served as a brilliant reminder that fine jewellery remains one of Hollywood’s most powerful storytelling tools
