Dollar drops, gold near record high as bets for big Fed cut ramp up




On Friday, investors increased their expectations for a significant Federal Reserve interest rate cut next week, prompted by media reports suggesting that the decision might be more uncertain than previously believed.

Traders raised their bets to 39% for a 50-basis point cut on September 18, up from around 28% before the Financial Times and Wall Street Journal articles were published, according to LSEG data.
