DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has released a new Bybit x FXStreet TradFi Report as rate cut speculation ignites a bull run for gold and silver. The analysis highlights gold's record high at $3,508 per ounce and silver's 40% year-to-date surge, with the Fed's anticipated September 17 rate decision potentially catalyzing further gains as gold closes in on the $4,000 mark.
Key Insights
- Gold finds new momentum in second record high in 2025: Gold price's new breakthrough signals a potential shift from the previous April high driven by tariff uncertainty to fundamentals-based momentum ahead of the Fed's anticipated rate cuts. Lower rates and a weaker dollar make non-yielding assets like precious metal more attractive as capital flows from deposits and bonds into alternative stores of value. In addition, macro factors such as rising global debt, fiscal deficit, and inflation fears reinforce gold's appeal as both a safe haven and currency devaluation hedge.
- Gold/Silver ratio suggests upside for silver: The classic gold/silver ratio currently stands at 86 compared to just 32 when silver peaked at $50 in April 2011, indicating gold is relatively expensive versus silver and creating substantial upside potential as these wide spreads historically narrow over time. Silver has quietly outperformed with a 40% year-to-date rally, and shows further room for growth as it is well below its 2011 all-time high of $50 per ounce.
- Technical Analysis points to continued strength: Current RSI (Relative Strength Index) above the 68 range still sit below the 83 and 88 levels, for gold and silver respectively, during previous rallies. The report names the next Fed decision as a potential fundamental event that could lead to breakthroughs.
The report sets a medium-term target of $4,000 for gold by year-end, representing an additional 14% gain from current levels. For silver, breaking above the psychologically important $50 level could trigger renewed retail and speculative interest.

Bybit and FXStreet TradFi Report Deciphers Latest Gold, Silver, and USD Dynamics
ALULA, Saudi Arabia, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marks the official opening of Desert X AlUla 2026, the landmark fourth edition of the international, open-air biennial exhibition. Arts AlUla, in collaboration with Desert X, welcomes visitors to experience a stellar line-up of Saudi and international multi-generational artists whose site-responsive earthworks, sculptures, and installations will engage in a powerful dialogue with the awe-inspiring landscapes and layered heritage of AlUla.
As a premier destination rich in ancient history and breathtaking nature, AlUla, located in Northwest Saudi Arabia, solidifies its position on the global stage as a dynamic, emerging land art destination with Desert X AlUla, the region's first public art biennale, and a key highlight of the AlUla Arts Festival.
The 2026 edition of Desert X AlUla brings together 11 acclaimed artists whose diverse works reflect a wide spectrum of ideas, materials, and traditions. From monumental kinetic sculpture to sound-based explorations above and below ground, each commission is deeply rooted in relationships to AlUla's distinctive environment, further cementing Desert X AlUla's reputation as a globally significant platform for site-responsive land art.
Desert X AlUla runs until February 28, 2026, as a cornerstone of the annual AlUla Arts Festival. Curated by Wejdan Reda, Zoé Whitley, with artistic direction by Neville Wakefield, and Raneem Farsi, its fourth edition explores 'Space Without Measure.' Inspired by Kahlil Gibran, the theme fosters contemplation of imagination within AlUla's natural settings. The exhibition, set in the desert canyons of AlUla, serves as a pre-opening programme for Wadi AlFann, offering a pivotal glimpse into AlUla's plans to create a permanent land art 'Valley of the Arts.'
Hamad Alhomiedan, Director of Arts & Creative Industries at the Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU), said: "At Desert X AlUla 2026, audiences will engage with art that deeply converses with AlUla's unique landscapes and rich heritage. These compelling commissions highlight AlUla's dynamic transformation into a major global destination, where ancient and contemporary expressions converge. This exhibition is part of our broader revitalisation of AlUla as a culturally rich destination to live, work and visit and integral to positioning AlUla in the global dialogue of contemporary art and as a precursor to monumental projects like Wadi AlFann."

About AlUla and Arts AlUla
Located 1,100 km from Riyadh, in North-West Saudi Arabia, AlUla is a place of extraordinary natural and human heritage. The vast area, covering 22,561km², includes a lush oasis valley, towering sandstone mountains and ancient cultural heritage sites dating back thousands of years to when the Lihyan and Nabataean kingdoms reigned.
The most well-known and recognised site in AlUla is Hegra, the principal southern city of the Nabataean Kingdom and Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site. AlUla is also home to ancient Dadan, the capital of the Dadan and Lihyan Kingdoms and considered to be one of the most developed 1st millennium BCE cities of the Arabian Peninsula, and Jabal Ikmah, an open air library of hundreds of inscriptions and writings in many different languages. AlUla Old Town Village, a labyrinth of more than 900 mudbrick homes was developed from at least the 12th century and has been revitalised as the vibrant hub for visitors and residents.
The creation of Arts AlUla within The Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU) is a commitment to crafting the next chapters in a millennia of artistic creation – celebrating cultural inheritance and shaping a future inspired by artists built be artists. The work of Arts AlUla seeks to preserve this legacy: fuse the old with the new; the local with the international, keeping the arts central to the spirit of AlUla as a place of extraordinary natural and human heritage.
Wadi AlFann, meaning 'Valley of the Arts,' will be a global cultural destination for land art, unveiling from 2028 onwards, where era-defining works by artists from around the world will be permanently sited in the monumental landscape of AlUla, the extraordinary desert region of north-west Saudi Arabia.
