Gold Price Holds Near $4,300 After Fed Cut: Weekly Recap (Dec 8–14, 2025), Market Drivers, and 2026 Forecasts

Gold prices closed the week of December 8–14, 2025 on a firm footing near the $4,300 per ounce area, as traders digested the U.S. Federal Reserve’s year-end rate cut, a softer U.S. dollar, and a renewed tug-of-war between safe-haven demand and “too-far-too-fast” valuation concerns.

US Stock Market Week Ahead: Fed’s “Hawkish Cut,” Delayed Jobs & CPI, and Triple Witching Set Up a Volatile Mid-December

US Stock Market Week Ahead: Fed’s “Hawkish Cut,” Delayed Jobs & CPI, and Triple Witching Set Up a Volatile Mid-December

Wall Street heads into the week of Dec. 15–19, 2025 with a rare mix of cross-currents: a freshly delivered Federal Reserve rate cut, a market-wide rotation away from mega-cap AI winners, and—most importantly—a compressed “data dump” of delayed U.S. economic releases after a 43-day federal government shutdown disrupted reporting schedules. Reuters+2Bureau of Labor Statistics+2 The setup is straightforward but high-stakes: if the delayed numbers confirm a cooling economy without an inflation re-acceleration, equities could extend the year-end bid.
