Gold Price Today, 7 November 2025: XAU/USD holds above $4,000 as rate‑cut bets rise; China’s central bank extends buying streak
Summary: Gold is trading just over the $4,000/oz mark today as a softer dollar earlier in the session and growing expectations for another U.S. rate cut buoy bullion. The world’s biggest official-sector buyer—China—also extended its gold‑buying streak in October, underscoring persistent central‑bank support. A record‑long U.S. government shutdown has delayed key data releases, pushing traders to lean on private labor indicators and policy signals.
