The price of gold has reached new highs in recent days. On March 14, 2025, for the first time ever, the price rose to more than USD 3,000 per ounce, driven by economic and geopolitical uncertainties.

Reasons for the increase
Several factors are driving the demand for gold:

• Trade conflicts: New US tariffs on Chinese goods, as well as tensions with Canada and Mexico, are causing investors to seek safe havens.
• Interest rate cut expectations: Lower-than-expected inflation in the US is raising hopes of looser monetary policy – a positive for gold.
• Geopolitical uncertainties: ongoing tensions in Eastern Europe and the resumption of US military aid to Ukraine are intensifying the flight to safe havens.

What happens next?
Experts predict that the price of gold could continue to rise. Analysts consider USD 3,200 per ounce to be a realistic target in the coming months.
Gold thus remains an attractive hedge against economic and political risks. Anyone considering an investment should monitor market developments closely. We at SINCONA TRADING AG are always at your side with our expertise.
