Gold rally lifts U.S. reserves to record $1 trillion valuation
- Gold prices surged above $3,800 per ounce on Monday, with spot gold rising 1.1% to $3,801.88 amid rising demand and a weaker dollar.
- The rally stemmed from expectations of a 90% chance of a Federal Reserve rate cut in October and concerns over a potential U.S. government shutdown starting Wednesday.
- On Friday, the SPDR Gold Trust, the largest gold-backed ETF globally, increased its gold holdings by 0.89%, reaching a total of 1,005.72 metric tonnes, amid robust investor demand and alongside central banks boosting their gold reserves.
- Senior strategist Michael Brown stated the gold rally is broadening, driven by unanchored inflation risks, government spending in developing markets, and high physical demand from reserve allocators.
- This sustained momentum suggests bullion could maintain record levels and continue advancing as safe-haven demand grows amid economic uncertainty and expected Fed rate cuts.
