Gold hits new all-time high: $4,000 per ounce

 
Gold has surged to a record high of $4,000 per ounce amid growing expectations of a dovish shift from the US Federal Reserve, a weakening dollar, and aggressive gold purchases by central banks seeking a safety cushion. Additional drivers include rising capital inflows into gold-backed funds and escalating geopolitical tensions.
What happened today? On Wednesday morning, spot gold broke above the $4,000 mark for the first time ever, confirming this year’s impressive rally. The market is supported by expectations of interest rate cuts and steady safe-haven demand from both retail and institutional investors.

Upcoming growth triggers:

               1.            US CPI for September – October 15, 2025: Lower-than-expected inflation would strengthen the case for easier policy and boost demand for gold.

               2.            Fed Meeting – October 28–29, 2025: Any hint of additional rate cuts or dovish tone would support precious metals.

               3.            US Retail Sales – November 15, 2025: A key indicator of consumer demand strength. Weak figures would raise concerns about economic slowdown and increase expectations of further easing — bullish for gold.

Did you know?

• Gold powers tech and AI. Gold use in technology rose 7% in 2024 to 326 tons, with Q4 marking the strongest quarter since late 2021 — driven by demand for servers, chips, and corrosion-resistant connectors.
  
• Emerging market central banks keep buying. Despite record prices, dedollarization efforts in countries like China, India, and Turkey continue. Gold is seen as a strategic reserve, anchoring long-term demand even in volatile conditions.
  
• Production growth lags due to cost inflation. High prices haven’t led to new supply, as rising costs for energy, fuel, and labor make new mining projects unprofitable — creating a structural physical shortage.
  
• Rate hikes haven’t deterred institutional demand. Major funds are diversifying via gold ETFs, viewing the metal as a hedge against US “soft landing” risks and geopolitical uncertainty.
  
• Retail demand in Asia is at record highs. Consumers in China and India are buying gold heavily as a safe alternative to struggling sectors like real estate and equities, boosting physical demand.
  

 

FreshForex analysts believe gold could reach $4,200 per ounce by year-end, supported by not only financial but also structural factors. Industrial use is rising, while new mining projects take years to bring online — reinforcing long-term support.
