🌟 Gold price soaring
The gold market remains in absolute rally mode. After several days of strong gains, the price remains at an extremely high level - and the jump to an all-time high could happen at any time.

💸 Fed interest rate cut boosts precious metals
The latest push is mainly due to the Fed's decision:
- ✔️ Fed rate cut this week
- ✔️ Prospect of continued loose monetary policy
- ✔️ Start of a new bond purchase program (USD 40 billion per month)
The whole thing acts as fuel for gold and silver, as neither yields any current interest - making them particularly attractive in periods of low interest rates.

🏅 Gold price scratches the record
- Current price: USD 4,337 per ounce
- All-time high: USD 4,381
- ➡️ Only 44 dollars away!
Three strong trading days in a row have catapulted the market upwards. Silver is also close to its own record.

📈 Reasons for the mega rally
Precious metals are a phenomenon in their own right in 2025:
- Gold: +60% since the beginning of the year
- Silver: more than doubled
- Best performance in sight since 1979
The whole thing is driven by:
- ✔️ massive central bank buying behavior
- ✔️ withdrawal of many investors from government bonds
- ✔️ Increasing fear of currency devaluation (debasement trade)
- ✔️ geopolitical uncertainties

🔮 Outlook: 2026 could be even hotter
According to market analyst Hebe Chen (Vantage Markets):
- The rally is likely to continue until 2026
- Central banks remain buyers
- ETF inflows pick up speed again
- Fed leaves "unusual room for surprises" - creating more volatility
The World Gold Council confirms:
→ Gold ETF holdings to rise almost every month in 2025
→ Silver additionally benefits from shortages and supply disruptions
