If you like this kind of Daily stock market review (shorter on weekdays, and slightly longer at weekends), then please subscribe to let me know you want more of the same. Please note the following correction to my comment on BOE rates. I should have said: : "The Bank of England most recently **reduced its key interest rate by 0.25 percentage points—from 4.25% to 4.0%—on 7 August 2025. This marks the fifth rate cut since August 2024"
I cover stocks, international stocks and markets, gold, silver and other precious metals, gold ming stocks, commodities, interest rates, bitcoin and crypto, oil, and general economic news including tariffs, Central Bank decisions, Labour and inflation news.
