A historic week for the precious metals market saw gold futures break new records, surpassing the $2600 per troy ounce mark for the first time. This milestone comes as investors anticipate a significant interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve at the upcoming FOMC meeting.
Gold Markets are eagerly awaiting the FOMC meeting, which is widely expected to result in the first interest rate reduction since 2020. Analysts, economists, and gold market observers are overwhelmingly predicting a rate cut, with the consensus leaning towards a 25 basis point reduction. However, there is also a possibility of a more aggressive 50 basis point cut, according to CME FedWatch.
In other mining news, AngloGold Ashanti announced plans to acquire Egypt-focused Centamin for $2.5 billion in cash and stock. While the news initially caused a decline in Anglogold’s stock price, it recovered by the end of the week.
