Gold Keeps Clinging to Record Peaks—Fed’s Cut Is the Sweet Spot
What’s Steering the Price?
Gold’s golden glow hasn’t dimmed yet. It’s riding a combination of a weaker dollar and the buzz that the Federal Reserve might slash rates.
Labour Market Lulls the Fed’s Pulse

- Fed set to announce on Wednesday.
- Bank of England jumps in on Thursday.
- Bank of Japan drops in on Friday.
The Size of the Cut—A Double‑Edged Sword
Hold tight: if the cut is 25 basis points, gold might take a dip. But a hefty 50‑bp cut, however, will likely boost the metal’s price right away.
