Gold Soars To Record $4,000 On Fed Cut Bets, Global Unrest

Gold surged to a record $4,000 per ounce on Tuesday, fueled by investor demand amid mounting geopolitical tensions, economic uncertainty, and expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts.

Prices have climbed 51% this year, supported by central bank purchases, a weaker dollar, and retail investors seeking inflation protection.

Analysts say gold’s momentum reflects fading confidence in the U.S. dollar and growing demand for safe-haven assets.
