The third quarter of 2025 was characterized by shifting expectations for fiscal and monetary policy, and an evolving global trade backdrop. Despite this uncertainty, capital markets remained broadly resilient. U.S. equities continued to advance, supported by a Federal Reserve rate cut, robust earnings, AI optimism and forthcoming tax incentives from the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (OBBB). Gold remained a favored safe-haven asset, with prices etching new highs amid ongoing geopolitical risks and concerns about long-term economic stability.
