So far in 2025, gold has set more than 30 nominal records, making new all-time highs seem almost routine. Yet the latest rally still offers something noteworthy: Spot gold has climbed approximately 5% this month, reaching an unprecedented $3,674.27 per ounce on Tuesday and breaking through the January 21, 1980 peak of $850 — which equates to roughly $3,590 in inflation-adjusted terms.
Breaking this inflation-adjusted milestone further reinforces gold’s traditional role as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation.
Gold remains unique among asset classes with a track record of preserving value across millennia, and its revival signals a profound shift in market structure. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s — an era defined by the end of the Cold War, the launch of the euro, China’s WTO accession, and the dollar’s expanding global reach — gold fell out of favor. Today, central banks are once again increasing their gold reserves to diversify away from dollar-denominated assets and shield themselves from sanctions targeting U.S. adversaries.
In September 2025, Shaun Heinrichs, President and CEO of 1911 Gold (TSXV: AUMB), shared the company’s strategy and development in an interview with METALS 100. 1911 Gold owns 100% of gold assets in Manitoba and Ontario, anchored by its flagship True North Project with established infrastructure and 1.1 Moz in resources. The Company recently raised C$13.2 million through a bought-deal LIFE financing, and has engaged AMC Consultants to complete a PEA on True North, assessing the potential restart of underground mining.
Amy Gower, Metals and Commodity Strategist at Morgan Stanley, noted that gold is not only a traditional safe-haven asset but also a barometer of the global economic and financial landscape. In 2025, investors are looking to gold not only for inflation protection but also as a gauge of central bank policies and geopolitical risks. Morgan Stanley forecasts another 5% rise in gold prices by year-end, with a target of $3,800 per ounce.
Gold has gained nearly 40% year-to-date as President Trump implemented tax cuts, expanded his global trade war, and sought unprecedented influence over the Federal Reserve. Despite these gains, market analysts see no clear technical or fundamental signals that the precious metal’s rally is nearing a peak. Heraeus, a precious metals analysis firm, pointed out that the U.S. dollar may be entering a prolonged weakening phase, which could provide further support to gold.
The continuous climb in gold prices has also benefited gold mining equities. The NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index hit a record high earlier this month. In addition, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) recently released its 2025 TSX30 list, which ranks the top 30 performers, and mining companies — particularly gold producers — dominated this year’s ranking, claiming 17 spots.
