Gold Takes a Break Ahead of the Fed
Wednesday, 17 September 2025 21:56 WIB | MARKET ANALYSIS |GOLDEMAS

Gold prices (XAU/USD) have calmed after rallying to a record near $3,703 on Tuesday. On Wednesday evening, gold briefly fell to an intraday low of around $3,660 before stabilizing around $3,682. Profit-taking and a relatively stable US dollar held back the rally, while persistently low US Treasury yields remained a key factor.
Market focus is on the Fed's decision at 18:00 GMT (01:00 WIB), with expectations for a 25-bps rate cut to 4.00% or 4.25%. The next direction will be determined by the dot plot and Jerome Powell's tone (18:30 GMT): a dovish signal could push gold back to test the area above $3,700, while a more cautious message could trigger a further correction, with $3,660 (today's low) a key level to watch. The ongoing geopolitical tensions maintain a medium-term bullish bias. (ads)

The gold price at the time of writing was $3,685/Toz.
