"The global fear driving up gold prices Money Works"
"The price of gold has risen more than 50 percent in October since the start of 2025."

Gold prices have surged more than 50% since the start of 2025. Global economic and geopolitical uncertainty has increased safe-haven demand for gold.

Physical supply constraints from mining and recycling have limited immediate market relief.
