The Fed announced upcoming rate cuts yesterday. Afterwards, gold prices rose to a record high. Why?

Mod Tanyatorn : thanks for sharing
TinkerB3ll : Thanks @iamiam for the extensive list wondering what’s your thoughts on MSOS?
iamiam OP TinkerB3ll : I would rather have the individual companies. MSOS is a Blackrock creation with lots of swaps and derivatives, they even have bonds its not bad if you hold it. it's just not my thing. too many swaps and derivatives for my liking.
