Insights:
Precious metals markets have resumed their upward momentum at the start of 2026, with gold climbing 1.3% to $4,372.02 per ounce as of January 2. This follows a period of year-end selling pressures, which have now eased, allowing the rally that characterized 2025 to continue. The ongoing geopolitical tensions and expectations of multiple rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve in 2026 are key drivers of this renewed momentum.
