Dow Jones on record course: gold prices over $ 3,800 - investors are excited!
U.S. stocks are near record highs on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, marked by a quiet start to trading. The Dow Jones Industrial Average starts higher and gains almost 200 points. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite show little movement at the start of trading. This positive sentiment in the markets is supported by the rise in gold prices above the $3,800 mark, reaching a record high of $3,816. Investors are confident, especially ahead of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's highly anticipated speech.
Powell's speech is scheduled to take place at 12:25 p.m. ET as part of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce 2025 Economic Outlook lunche. This will be Powell's first statement since the Fed interest reduction. Experts expect valuable insights into the assessment of the Fed on the current situation of the U.S. economy from his speech. Wall Street expects further interest rate cuts in 2025, which coordinated with the positive market mood to an increase in stocks.
Market development and technical highlights
The last few days have been particularly gratifying for the markets, since the large indices recorded three consecutive trading days with high final courses. An important factor for this increase was the announcement by Nvidia to make a 100 billion dollar investment in Openaai, which caused a jump in stocks on Monday. The NVIDIA share increased more than 3 %before it made some profits in the pre -exchanged trade hours.
Global gold markets and China's position
There are also reports that China plans to improve its market position by offering it to manage gold reserves for friendly countries. The People’s Bank of China actively tries to move various central banks to buy them gold over the Shanghai Gold Exchange. These strategic steps could have far -reaching effects on global gold markets and influence the geopolitical balance.
Overall, the market shows a remarkable strength, while investors are waiting for further developments and explanations of the Fed. The positive development of the shares, combined with the rising gold prices and the stable Bitcoin value, outlines a complex but optimistic image of the current economic situation.
