Gold News 2025: Gold Surges 25% in Just Four Months, Remains Unshaken Amid Global Uncertainty

New Delhi In a turbulent global economic landscape, gold has once again proven itself a safe haven for investors. As of April 2025, gold has delivered a stellar return of approximately 25%, reaching all-time highs on both the MCX and COMEX trading platforms. According to a recent report from Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd. (MOFSL), this rally is being driven by escalating geopolitical tensions, persistent inflation, and growing global monetary instability.

Key Drivers Behind Gold’s 2025 Rally

The surge in gold prices is closely tied to rising tensions between the United States and China, coupled with continued global economic volatility. Some of the major factors include:

• Escalating U.S.-China Trade Conflict

• Uncertainty Around Inflation and Monetary Policies

• Aggressive Gold Buying by Central Banks

• Over 7% Decline in the U.S. Dollar

Navin Damani, Senior Vice President at MOFSL, commented, “In this volatile global environment, gold has become a symbol of stability. We advise a ‘buy-on-dips’ strategy for medium to long-term investors.”

Current Gold Price Levels on MCX and COMEX

Gold’s technical charts reflect strong support and resistance levels, suggesting continued upward momentum if key zones hold:

• MCX Support: ₹91,000 per 10 grams

• MCX Resistance: ₹99,000 per 10 grams

• COMEX Support: $3,100 per ounce

• COMEX Resistance: $3,400 per ounce

Silver has also mirrored gold’s rally, posting a 15% increase on COMEX, buoyed by industrial demand and similar macroeconomic concerns.

Outlook: No End in Sight for Geopolitical Disputes

Aggressive trade policies under the Trump administration and steep tariffs—some as high as 245%—have added further stress to global markets. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s three interest rate cuts in 2024, followed by a cautious “wait-and-watch” stance in 2025, have only reinforced the demand for safe-haven assets like gold.

Experts believe that until there is a concrete resolution to international trade disputes, gold prices are likely to continue climbing, offering investors a resilient hedge against both market volatility and inflation.
