Silver Rises Over 120% YTD 
Australia is shipping unprecedented amounts of gold to the United States in 2025. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, gold exports to the US have exploded to new heights.
After jumping to $1.17 billion in December 2024, January’s gold shipments soared to $4.62 billion – making up 87% of the month’s total $5.272 billion in exports. This single month exceeded Australia’s entire gold exports to the US for all of 2024.
For perspective, monthly gold exports to the US typically ranged between $31-337 million during 2023-2024. This gold is used for investments, jewelry, and industrial purposes.
This dramatic surge suggests a major shift in the gold market, possibly reflecting changing American investment strategies or growing economic concerns.
