As Gold Hits $2,500, All Eyes Turn to Fed's Next Move Gold prices reached a record high above $2,500 per ounce, driven by safe-haven demand and expectations of U.S. interest rate cuts. Despite a slight pullback, analysts anticipate further price increases, with UBS projecting $2,600/oz by year-end. Investors are now focused on Fed Chair Powell’s upcoming speech and the release of July’s Fed meeting minutes for indications of potential rate cuts. The precious metal’s 20% surge this year is attributed to rate cut expectations, geopolitical tensions, and robust central bank purchases. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Fear Index' Doubles Amid Worldwide Stock Market Rout READ MORE BRICS Nations' Gold Rush: Safeguarding Economies Against US Recession Fears READ MORE Stress Tests Reveal Hundreds of U.S. Banks at Risk Due to Loans and Rate Hikes READ MORE Precious Metals on a Winning Streak: Time for a Hard Money Heat Check READ MORE Gold Prices Stabilize as Focus Turns to Upcoming US Economic Indicators READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
