Record gold prices drove first-quarter demand in 2025 to the highest level since 2016. The LBMA gold price hit multiple record highs in Q1, with the average price coming in at $2,860 an ounce. That was a 38 percent year-on-year increase. The gold price was driven by multiple factors, including the specter of a trade war, geopolitical turmoil in the Middle East and Ukraine, stock market volatility, and dollar weakness.

Chinese investors are pouring money into gold. China accounted for more than half of gold flows into ETFs globally last month, and Q1 Chinese demand for gold bars and coins hit the second-highest quarterly level on record. As World Gold Council senior market strategist John Rease put it, Chinese investment demand for gold has increased “dramatically.” China ranks as the world’s biggest gold market. Chinese investors responded as the RMB gold price recorded its strongest Q1 since 2002 when the Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) was established. Total inflows of gold into China-based ETFs were estimated at over 70 tonnes in April, totaling around $7.4 billion. According to the World Gold Council, this more than doubled the previous monthly record. This was on top of record gold inflows of 23 tonnes totaling ¥16.7 billion ($2.3 billion) in Q1.

“Gold is the only neutral, indestructible, universally accepted financial instrument that is evenly distributed globally.

(AUDIO AVAILABLE) In this episode of the Money Metals Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey opens with an unexpected comparison between the experience of playing goalie in a chaotic amateur hockey game and navigating today’s financial markets. Substituting for a team of less experienced players, Maharrey found himself overwhelmed by disorganized defense and unpredictable gameplay. The key to managing that chaos, he explains, was staying calm and relying on fundamentals. He relates this to the current investing environment, where headlines change by the hour and markets swing wildly in response. Like tracking a puck in disorder, investors must tune out the noise and focus on what doesn’t change—underlying economic realities and long-term fundamentals. This advice frames the episode’s central theme: the importance of clarity and discipline amid economic volatility.

Gold has won the competition — a plebiscite as long-running as established civilizations — to be crowned mankind’s universal choice as a store of value and medium of exchange — as real money. Now, in less than two decades, a potential competitor has arisen: Bitcoin, with the arguable potential to rival and even supersede gold.

Key continuation patterns known as pennants are forming in both the U.S. Dollar Index and gold, and the direction of their breakouts will signal the next major move for each. After a volatile couple of months filled with relentless news and confusing cross-currents from the Trump administration’s tariff plans and other policies, the financial markets have calmed down in recent weeks—providing a much-needed breather for everyone, myself included. While it’s been quiet in the precious metals space, numerous indicators are flashing that this is merely the calm before the storm. As I’ll show in this update, another sharp move is likely right around the corner.

Ships of Britain’s massive Royal Navy, the largest in the world, inflicted great damage on American ports, property, and vessels during the years of the Revolution (1775–1783). Perhaps none of those ships wreaked more havoc than HMS Phoenix, and it accomplished its devious work not with a cannon but with a printing press. The bodies from the battle on Boston’s Bunker Hill were buried just days earlier when the Second Continental Congress authorized the printing of paper money (see “The Times That Tried Men’s Economic Souls”). What began with a modest batch of six million in continental dollars turned into a blizzard of several hundred million by the war’s end, yielding a steady depreciation and giving rise to the famous phrase “not worth a continental.” With nothing to back the money but murky promises to redeem it in precious metal at a future date, Congress didn’t need any help to make it worthless, but the British were happy to assist, nonetheless.

It seems as if gold has been breaking records every week as bulls have run with wild abandon. However, last week, gold quietly hit a very significant milestone without much fanfare, taking out its all-time high in real terms. For perspective, in October 2023, gold was at $1,830 an ounce. Today, the yellow metal is trading around $3,300 an ounce. That’s a 75 percent gain in just 18 months. Along the way, gold set 40 new all-time highs last year alone based on the afternoon London Bullion Market Association p.m. price. But those records are in nominal terms. When we talk about an asset's “real” price, we’re referring to the price adjusted for price inflation as measured by the CPI. So, how has gold done on a “real” inflation-adjusted basis?

As gold prices skyrocket, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has resumed issuing gold coins. The central bank introduced the coins in June 2022. The program was touted as a way for investors to store value in the face of rampant inflation. At the time, a Zimbabwean brokerage firm analyst told Al Jazeera that the coin was a “welcome development.” Michael Maharrey Money Metals - Buy Gold, Silver & Precious Metals for Investment #Zimbabwe #GoldCoin #Gold #Money #Economy
