US EditionGold Soars Rs184,000/tola in 2025
Gold surged over 65% in 2025 as investors sought a hedge amid currency and debt uncertainties; central bank buying and Fed easing also supported prices.
- On Monday, bullion edged 0.2 per cent lower to $US4330.37/oz at 1pm Singapore time, after gold advanced more than 65 per cent this year.
- Investors flocked to precious metals as a hedge while elevated central bank buying and the US Federal Reserve's easing cycle boosted prices, with rate cuts and speculative fervour pushing silver into momentum trades earlier this week.
- The CME Group raised futures margin requirements on precious metals for the second time in under a week, forcing traders to post more collateral as silver, platinum and palladium sagged more than 5 per cent on Wednesday.
- Supply will likely stay tight until the US administration's Section 232 investigation clarifies tariffs on platinum and silver, while disruptions in South Africa push markets toward a third annual deficit this year.
- The setup remains supportive as rates ease amid fiscal and geopolitical unease, but positioning looks stretched and metals whipsawed in December, so pullbacks can be sharp.
