Gold futures trade higher in early deals of Friday

26 Dec 2025 Evaluate
Gold futures traded higher in early deals of Friday, kindled by the bets of more Fed interest rate cuts and softer dollar. Ongoing US blockade of crude shipments from Venezuela, continued hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, and a recent military strike by Washington against ISIS in Nigeria, buoyed safe-haven demand. 

Gold futures for February delivery up by $35.20 or 0.78% to $4538.00 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile.
