September 2025 gold market: A weak dollar powers the rally on
BullishDollar 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
- Fed rate-cut expectations
- continued investment demand
- central-bank buying
Key events in September 2025

What happened next
Momentum and an actual rate cut carried gold to the historic $4,000 milestone in October.
For gold buyers
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:
- Gold is priced in US dollars, so a weaker dollar generally makes gold cheaper for other currencies and lifts its price — one of the strongest relationships in markets.
