Gold has jumped to a fresh record, with Comex gold futures settling at US$4,378 per ounce, up 2.47 % on the session and capping one of the strongest monthly rallies in the metal’s history.
Markets remain on edge as geopolitical tensions between the US and China continue to escalate, prompting a powerful rotation into safe-haven assets. Gold, already sitting near historic highs, is once again proving its value as the asset of choice when trust in fiat markets wavers.
Investors are also positioning ahead of a likely shift in US Federal Reserve policy, with growing consensus that rate cuts could arrive sooner than expected. That outlook has weakened the US dollar and lifted demand for real stores of value such as gold.
Over the past 12 months, gold has climbed nearly 60 %, driven by steady central-bank accumulation, heightened institutional flows, and persistent retail buying. Intraday trading overnight saw prices range between US$4,310 and $4,390, underscoring the strength of demand at record territory.
This rally reinforces what long-term holders already know; gold remains the foundation of wealth preservation. Whether held physically through allocated storage or digitally via AUS tokens backed 1:1 by physical gold, investors maintain direct ownership of the world’s oldest form of money.
In uncertain times, gold doesn’t just protect – it performs. And as the world’s monetary tides shift once again, the case for owning true allocated gold has never been clearer.
