Gold Surges to Record $3,400 Amid Global Economic Uncertainty

Gold prices continued their historic rally on Monday, reaching a new all-time high of $3,424.66 per ounce as investors seek safe-haven assets amid ongoing economic uncertainties. According to data from goldprice.org, the precious metal has gained $109.53 (3.3%) in today’s trading session alone.

The surge of gold has been particularly pronounced in recent months, with the metal showing impressive gains across multiple timeframes. Gold has risen by $306.15 (10.17%) over the past 30 days and has surged by $569.21 (20.73%) in the last six months. The year-to-date increase stands at 26.3% across multiple currencies, significantly outpacing its historical average annual return of 8.3%.

Silver has also benefited from the broader precious metals rally, climbing to $33.05 per ounce with a 1.94% gain today. However, its performance has been more mixed, showing a 1.68% decline over the past 30 days and a 6.99% drop over six months. Other precious metals have seen modest gains, with platinum at $976.52 (up 0.96%) and palladium at $960.25 (up 0.03%).

Market analysts attribute gold’s dramatic rise to several factors, including concerns about the US dollar’s role as a reserve currency, escalating US-China trade tensions, and President Trump’s broad tariff policies. The current rally has been particularly remarkable for its velocity — gold took 12 years to move from $1,000 to $2,000 per ounce, but has gained more than $1,400 since the start of 2025 alone.

Long-term performance data from goldprice.org shows gold has delivered a staggering 662.27% return over the past 20 years, with 2025 already among the strongest performing years in gold’s recent history.
