Gold closes higher near record as Fed cut bets lift, silver steady; platinum and palladium slip

Gold ended Tuesday at $3,649.55/oz (+0.47%) after multiple reports tied the rally to a weaker U.S. dollar, lower Treasury yields, and firmer expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. Silver held near multi-year highs, while platinum and palladium finished lower with little fresh news in today’s reports.
