Gold’s rally shows no signs of slowing as the precious metal inches closer to the psychological $3,000 mark, driven by multiple supporting factors.
The latest surge comes as President Trump and Vladimir Putin initiated discussions to end the Ukraine conflict, which strengthened the euro against a weakening US dollar.
Despite inflation data exceeding expectations and potentially delaying rate cuts, gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset remains strong. The rally has been further supported by significant purchases from central banks, particularly China, and increased investment in gold-backed ETFs.
