Gold markets held steady in a subdued end-of-summer session, reflecting typical seasonal quietude rather than any major fundamental shift. As of August 25, 2025, gold prices remained largely unchanged amid "quieter summertime trading" conditions, while silver slipped modestly.
Meanwhile, market sentiment looks increasingly favorable for gold, as investors prepare for a potential Federal Reserve rate cut in September. Gold “wavered as investors weighed the outlook for US interest rates,” signaling that markets are pricing in easing monetary policy.
Mining stocks are shining brighter than bullion itself. A mid-August Barron’s article flagged shares of Newmont, Coeur, and Kinross as poised for further upside, buoyed by strong gold performance and optimistic forward guidance.
