Gold Prices Reach Record High Amid Fed Policy Speculation and Dollar Decline
Gold prices surged to a historic peak of $3,637 per ounce on Monday, September 8, 2025, marking a 1% daily increase and a 44% annual gain. The rally reflects gold's enduring appeal as a SAFE haven amid economic uncertainty.
Market sentiment hinges on expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts, which typically weaken the dollar and enhance gold's attractiveness. The dollar index's continued decline has further amplified demand for dollar-denominated commodities.
