To get straight to the point: the World Gold Council expects the rise in the price of gold to continue. It is not surprising that the global gold jewelry industry has sold less due to the high price of gold. Central banks have also scaled back their purchases somewhat. However, inflation fears and economic and political uncertainties are fueling strong interest in the precious metal. Central banks remain strong buyers of gold, with China also making significant purchases. However, it is unclear whether the figures reflect reality. Many assume that China’s gold reserves are larger than officially stated. According to official figures, China has gold reserves of 2,292 tons, which would make it the seventh-largest gold holder in the world.

On the supply side, a record high is expected for the second quarter of 2025. At the same time, global demand (including OTC thanks to strong investment demand) was 10.4 percent higher than in the second quarter of 2024. This is despite the fact that gold was around 40 percent more expensive this year. In any case, ETF inflows were strong in the first half of 2025, as were sales of bars and coins. The majority of experts expect gold prices to continue rising, although there are a few negative voices. Those who have invested in recent years can look forward to substantial profits. An ounce of gold currently costs around US$3,370. Three years ago, an ounce cost only around US$1,850. Over a much longer period, gold has certainly always shone. Those who prefer to invest in companies with gold in their projects can familiarize themselves with Vizsla Silver or Fortuna Mining.
