Gold prices gained above $3350 on easing US treasury yields. It hit a low of $3331 yesterday and is currently trading around $3360.
The CME FedWatch Tool indicates that investor expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate decrease at the September 17, 2025, FOMC meeting have significantly grown, now implying a 94–98% likelihood of a 25-basis-point reduction. Recent weak labor market figures and a lower July inflation report have contributed to this rise in expectations, which has caused a fall in Treasury yields and future markets mostly pricing in a lowering of the federal funds rate to 4.00%–4.25%. Although certain Fed officials have indicated that several reductions should the economy continue to be weak, the choice is data-dependent; the September meeting will include an evaluation of additional inflation and employment data.
