Gold Hits Record High After Trump Revives ‘The Golden Rule’

This comes as no surprise, considering the current macroeconomic backdrop is fuelling a perfect storm for Gold – firmly positioning the yellow metal as the world’s Number One “Trump Trade of 2025”.

According to analysts at GSC Commodity Intelligence – as Gold prices continue their unstoppable run higher, scaling new all-time record highs for a seventh consecutive quarter in a row – “conclusive evidence shows that we are now in the early stages of a new Supercycle for Gold”.

Since President Donald Trump took office in January – Gold prices have been on an epic run – rising every single month this year to score new all-time record highs – not once, not twice, but on 25 separate occasions, so far in 2025.

Yes, that’s 25 new all-time record highs, so far this year.

Having previously scored 39 new all-time highs throughout 2024 – matching the peak of the Global Financial Crisis in 2011 – the price of Gold in U.S Dollars has continued to build on last year’s momentum – taking its count of record highs to a staggering total of 64 new all-time highs, within a space of 16 months to the present day.

Put another way, that’s the equivalent of Gold hitting four new all-time record highs – every single month consecutively for the last 16 months in a row.

Trump’s ‘Golden Rule’ Tweet Ignites Gold Rush

On Monday, Gold prices surged to a new record high of $3,429 an ounce. This represents a blistering year-to-date gain of 29% since the beginning of 2025.

But here’s what’s even more impressive. Gold has now chalked up a phenomenal gain of more than 134% since the Pandemic in 2020, when the precious metal was trading sub $1,450 an ounce.

In other words, Gold prices have now more than doubled the space of 4 years.

And this could just the beginning!

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump provided a new catalyst for Gold with a bold statement on his Truth Social Platform.

In a post the President declared – “He who has the Gold makes the rules.” This powerful message didn’t go unnoticed. Trump’s post sent Gold prices surging to a new historic high within striking distance of $3,500 an ounce as financial markets opened on Monday.

The Big Question Now Is: How High Will Gold Prices Go From Here?

Only time will tell, however one thing we do know for certain is that the stars appear to be aligning for Gold, which ultimately suggests it won’t take much for prices to break further record highs in the coming weeks, if not days ahead!
