Kayagi Takaki 「Weekly Gold Market Outlook」 September 1, 2025 issue

The President and CEO of Investment Daily News, and a master of cycle analysis,

Kōmei Kabutogi is the author of the weekly Precious Metals Outlook report.

Last week's New York gold market continued to rise sharply, closing at 3,516.1 dollars, up 97.6 dollars from the previous week.

In July’s US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index released last week, the core index excluding energy and food rose 2.9% year over year, just accelerating 0.1 percentage point from the previous month. As a result, concerns about delaying rate cuts due to inflation eased, and the outlook of a rate cut at the FOMC meeting on September 16–17 strengthened the case for buying gold.

Additionally, ongoing uncertainty surrounding the removal of Fed Governor Cook supported gold demand as a safe asset. On the 28th, Cook filed a lawsuit seeking confirmation of his continued service, arguing that President Trump’s firing notice for alleged mortgage fraud is illegal. SMBC Nikko Securities Chief Market Economist Yoshimasa Maruyama noted, “The current firmness is supported not only by expectations for rate cuts but also by the loss of confidence in the dollar stemming from Cook’s removal issue.”
