Gold prices poised to test record highs in 2025 on geopolitical tensions, says ANZ
Investing.com-- Gold is expected to retain its appeal as a safe-haven asset in 2025 as elevated geopolitical and economic uncertainties, coupled with strong central bank buying, are expected to support prices, ANZ analysts said.
Geopolitical risks—such as increasing tensions in the Middle East and challenges stemming from Trump’s trade policies—will likely keep gold demand buoyant, analysts said. On the supply side, central banks will remain active buyers, though at a slower pace. ANZ forecasts annual gold purchases by central banks to be around 850 tons in 2025, down from 950 tons in 2024, as countries like Russia, China, and India stockpile reserves.
This steady yet cautious optimism underscores gold’s role as a hedge against rising macroeconomic risks, providing a"modest shine" in the upcoming year.Risk Disclosure: Trading in financial instruments and/or cryptocurrencies involves high risks including the risk of losing some, or all, of your investment amount, and may not be suitable for all investors.
