NUGT is trading $209.95, up 2.09% in after-hours trading after late-session gold stabilization following a sharp regular-session decline as hotter July PCE lifted Treasury yields and pressured gold.

  • July headline PCE rose 3.7% year over year; spot gold fell roughly 0.52% early in the session.
  • The move appears primarily a relief bounce/profit-taking reversal, not a new NUGT-specific catalyst.
  • Firmer equity futures and positive Nvidia after-hours sentiment may support risk appetite; gold and rates remain key drivers for August 27.
