Gold surges as markets react to Fed rate cut

Dec 12, 2025

New York [US], December 12: Gold (XAU/USD) rallied sharply on Thursday following the US Federal Reserve's anticipated interest rate cut announced the previous day.

At the time of writing, the XAU/USD climbed to $4,267, rebounding strongly after touching an intraday low of $4,204. The metal's surge reflects heightened investor appetite for safe-haven assets amid shifting expectations for US monetary policy.
