Gold Settles Below $3,340 Ahead of Crucial Fed Commentary

Published: 07-28-2025, 09:55 am | Updated: 07-28-2025, 09:19 am

Gold prices steadied after the U.S. and European Union reached a new tariff agreement, calming fears of a full-blown trade war. The deal—set to impose 15% tariffs on most EU exports including cars—has left investors cautiously optimistic but still uncertain about how it may impact metals specifically.

Meanwhile, anticipation builds around a possible extension of the U.S.-China trade truce and this week’s Federal Reserve meeting. While the Fed is expected to hold interest rates steady, traders are watching for clues about the future of monetary policy. Lower rates typically boost gold since it doesn’t pay interest.

Despite a slight weekly dip, gold remains up over 25% for the year, with ongoing geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty driving demand. Spot gold hovered around $3,338 an ounce, with silver and other precious metals also seeing modest gains.

Half the Fed Wants a Hike. 45% of Central Banks Are Buying More Gold.

The Fed’s June 2026 dot plot split the committee down the middle on rate hikes, the dollar surged to its highest since May 2025, and silver posted its sharpest drop in weeks before recovering nearly 70% of the loss. The same week, the World Gold Council reported a record 45% of central banks plan to add gold. The headwinds are real. So is the floor.

Silver Hit $69.85 This Morning. Then the FOMC Took It All Back.

Silver climbed 2.8% on the Iran peace deal this morning, then gave it all back as the FOMC’s rate-hike signal reasserted itself. Gold barely moved. The gap between the two metals today shows exactly why silver behaves differently — and what physical holders need to understand about both forces.

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
