Before You Buy Property in 2026, Watch This First
December 7, 2025Gold remained resilient this week around US$4,198 an ounce as the market cautiously weighed the US Federal Reserve’s expected rate cut, the US jobs market, and the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.
But the standout performer was silver, which didn’t just hold firm: it broke out and surged into a new record quickly, comfortably outpacing gold’s momentum. Gold itself rallied during the week, but despite the strong start, finished lower than last week as some investors chose to take profits. Meanwhile, gold stocks failed to follow silver’s strength, slipping lower by week’s end as equity markets reassessed risk heading into 2025.
What does this divergence really signal? And how should investors think about wealth-building opportunities heading into a year where rate expectations, global growth and geopolitical tensions could all shift quickly? Brian breaks it down from the top.
