Gold is holding near fresh all-time highs

Gold is holding near fresh all-time highs as investors lean into safe-haven assets on rate-cut bets; spot has traded around the high-$3,900s/oz in recent sessions, with Goldman lifting its Dec-2026 target to $4,900. Brent crude is hovering near $65–66 and WTI around $62, supported by a smaller-than-expected OPEC+ hike. The U.S. Dollar Index remains in the high-97s area after its recent slide.
