# Gold and Silver Rally Continues as Rate-Cut Momentum Drives Precious Metals to New Heights
**September 2, 2025** - *Market Close Analysis*
Gold and silver extended their impressive bull run today, with both metals posting solid gains as rate-cut expectations and technical breakouts combined to fuel continued buying momentum across precious metals markets.
## Gold Maintains Upward Trajectory
Gold rose to 3,540.63 USD/t.oz on September 3, 2025, up 0.17% from the previous day, building on yesterday's strong performance when the maximum price was reached on 02.09.2025 at $3539.88. The precious metal continues to demonstrate remarkable strength, with prices rising 4.93% over the past month and up 41.87% compared to the same time last year.
Today's modest but steady gain reflects gold's consolidation at these elevated levels, suggesting institutional support remains strong despite the metal trading near all-time highs.
## Silver Breaks Key Resistance with Explosive Move
Silver delivered the day's most impressive performance, with Silver rose to 40.85 USD/t.oz on September 2, 2025, up 0.30% from the previous day. More significantly, key resistance levels around $3,450 for gold and $40 for silver were breached, triggering momentum buying.
This breakthrough above the critical $40 level represents a major technical achievement for silver, which has been building toward this breakout for weeks. Over the past month, Silver's price has risen 9.17%, and is up 45.61% compared to the same time last year, outperforming gold on both monthly and annual timeframes.
## Rate-Cut Expectations Fuel Precious Metals Demand
The prospect of lower borrowing costs has boosted the allure of the non-yielding precious metals, which saw added support from growing haven demand according to market analysts. This fundamental driver continues to support both metals as investors position for an extended period of monetary easing.
The combination of rate-cut expectations and technical breakouts has created a powerful tailwind for precious metals, with both gold and silver benefiting from increased institutional and retail investor interest.
