Gold Price Surges Past $4,500 in 2025 as ETF Inflows Roar Back — What’s Driving the Rally and the 2026 Outlook

Gold’s 2025 run has turned into a full-blown stampede—capped by a late-December surge that pushed bullion to fresh all-time highs and pulled the rest of the precious-metals complex along for the ride.
