UAE Gold Prices Under Pressure as Fed Stance and US Inflation Fears Weigh

Gold prices in the United Arab Emirates were in focus on Sunday, October 25, 2026, following a global decline that pushed the precious metal below $4,000 an ounce.

The retreat came amid growing concerns that US inflation could remain persistent, with the Federal Reserve’s hawkish stance adding pressure on gold.

Inflation worries can support demand for gold as a store of value. However, expectations of tighter monetary policy can weigh on the metal, which does not pay interest.

For buyers in the UAE, the international downturn provides the backdrop for local gold pricing. The available update did not include domestic retail rates or a breakdown by purity.

Attention remains on the outlook for US inflation and Federal Reserve policy, both of which could influence gold’s next move globally and in the UAE.
