Why is the shine of gold increasing?
If we look at the data of last 25 years, gold has given double digit returns. So far in the year 2025, gold has become expensive by about 50%. The main reasons for this are global economic uncertainty, expectations of possible interest rate cuts, weak US dollar and geopolitical tensions. When the world economy is unstable, investors consider gold as a safe investment. The possibility of the US Federal Reserve reducing interest rates has made investing in gold more attractive.
Rates increased due to increasing purchases by central banks
Central banks around the world are continuously buying gold for their foreign currency reserves, due to which demand has reached record levels. This is the reason why prices remain at high levels. According to experts, decreasing confidence in fiat currencies like rupee or dollar and increasing purchases from gold ETFs are also supporting this rise. Experts of Religare Broking and SMC Global Securities believe that if the trend of falling interest rates and weak dollar continues, the shine of gold will remain intact for a long time.
