Gold Hits $4,000, Silver Surpasses $50 Amid Safe-Haven Buying and Inflation Fears

Gold Hits $4,000, Silver Surpasses $50 Amid Safe-Haven Buying and Inflation Fears
Gold prices surged past $4,000 per ounce for the first time, up over 50% in 2025, as investors sought safe-haven assets amid inflation concerns, geopolitical tensions, and U.S. government shutdown fears. Silver topped $50 per ounce, its highest since 2011, rising roughly 67% year-to-date. Central-bank purchases and record ETF inflows supported the rally, while industrial demand drove silver strength. Analysts caution that retail enthusiasm is peaking, suggesting potential short-term corrections. Gradual accumulation is recommended over momentum chasing as volatility increases.
