Geopolitical tensions pushed gold prices up in Asia on the afternoon of December 26, as investors watched the US Federal Reserve's 2025 interest rate strategy and President-elect Donald Trump's tax policies, factors that could have a major impact on the precious metal next year.

According to the World Gold Council (WGC), central bank demand for gold has reached its highest level in more than ten years, a clear testament to gold’s strong position as a safe-haven asset, especially as the global geopolitical and economic situation continues to be uncertain. At the same time, loose monetary policies and slower rate hikes from central banks have also contributed to the positive momentum for gold prices.
Zain Vawda, an analyst at OANDA, said that in the absence of major geopolitical shocks, gold prices in 2025 could remain stable around $2,800/ounce.
Meanwhile, George Milling-Stanley - strategist of State Street Global Advisors - predicts that gold prices have a 50% chance of fluctuating between 2,600-2,900 USD/ounce, and a 30% chance of surpassing the threshold of 3,100 USD/ounce.
