September 2025 gold market: A weak dollar powers the rally on

Bullish

Dollar weakness — gold's most reliable tailwind — drove it higher.

Gold remained strong in September as the US dollar weakened significantly through 2025 — one of the most reliable relationships in markets is that a falling dollar lifts gold. Reviving rate-cut expectations and continued investment demand reinforced the sustained bullish trend.

What drove gold in September 2025

  • significant US dollar weakness

September leaned on gold's most dependable driver: when the dollar falls, gold tends to rise — and in 2025 the dollar fell hard.

Key terms this month

Dollar–gold inverse relationship:
