Geopolitical uncertainty drives gold and silver prices to new highs.

Published on 2026-01-12

Amid high geopolitical uncertainty, gold and silver futures prices on the New York Commodity Exchange in the United States rose on the 11th. The price of February gold futures briefly exceeded $4,600 per ounce, while silver futures also fluctuated near a high of around $84 per ounce, both reaching record highs. Market analysis suggests that, as a key safe-haven asset, the rise in international gold prices has been influenced by geopolitical developments. The U.S. government recently launched a large-scale military strike against Venezuela, forcibly taking control of President Maduro and his wife and bringing them to the United States. Observers believe that such strong-arm tactics by the U.S. government will accelerate the global trend of "de-dollarization," providing strong support for international gold prices. At the same time, due to persistent tight supply in the silver market, international silver prices have rebounded once again. Analysis indicates that the current shortage in silver supply is unlikely to ease in the short term. In this environment, market expectations suggest that silver prices will continue to maintain their upward momentum. By 2025, gold prices are projected to rise by over 60%, while silver prices are expected to increase by nearly 150%.
