Gold prices, tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:GLD), edged above $2,110 per troy ounce on Monday, poised to achieve a record close and triggering a significant surge in mining stocks.
This marked the fourth consecutive session of gains for the precious metal, bringing it within 1.4 percent of the all-time high reached during the intraday session on Dec. 4, 2023.
Despite the rise in Treasury yields on Monday, with the yield on the 2-year Treasury note inching up to 4.60%, gold exhibited strength in the market.
Market-implied probabilities for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut remained largely unchanged. Traders currently assign a 65% chance of a rate cut by June, with a total of four rate cuts expected by the end of the year.
According to the latest World Gold Council report, increasing geopolitical uncertainty is a significant driver of gold demand in 2024. Ongoing conflicts, trade tensions, and over 60 elections worldwide are likely to prompt investors to seek gold as a proven safe-haven asset.
