Gold Soars to $3,719 - Delivering Stunning 42% Annual Returns

Gold just smashed through another barrier—hitting $3,719 and delivering investors a whopping 42% return over the past year.

While traditional assets wobble, gold keeps flexing its safe-haven muscles. That 42% gain isn't just a number—it's a statement.

Old-school finance might still be debating inflation hedges, but gold's performance speaks for itself. No complex derivatives, no algorithmic trading—just pure, timeless value doing what it does best.

Meanwhile, Wall Street's still trying to figure out why physical assets outperform their over-engineered financial products. Maybe sometimes simpler really is better.

Gold Turns Bullish With Bigger Upside Potential

Analysts have long been predicting that Gold could breach the $3,700 mark by the year’s end. Leading banks and strategists predict that gold could reach the $4,000 level in 2026. Traders are still bullish on both assets and are riding the wave of profits.

Central banks, retail investors, and institutional funds have been heavily accumulating gold for three years. Therefore, the precious metal has barely experienced a dip in price as demand soars. It is unlikely that the commodity will shrink in value anytime soon.

Most importantly, central banks have been aggressively buying tonnes of gold to diversify their reserves. There is a slow ending reliance on the US dollar and betting on the glittery metal as it’s a haven and a hedge against inflation. The commodity has outperformed the US stock market by a large margin in a year.

The Dow Jones index has spiked 9% in a year, while the Nasdaq Composite surged 26%. On the other hand, the S&P 500 index shot up 16% in a year, and all of them are way behind gold, which spiked 42% in the same timeframe. Since traders are still open to taking an entry position in the commodity, the price of the metal is expected to soar.
