Gold Reaches New Records as Dollar Slump and Geopolitics Foment Market Fear

TL;DR Summary
Gold surged to record highs above $5,000 per ounce (with silver also at peaks), driven by safe‑haven demand, a softer dollar, persistent central‑bank buying, and rising inflation expectations. Geopolitical frictions, tariff tensions, and U.S. political strain ahead of a Fed meeting helped sustain risk appetite, while oil rose on weather disruptions and earnings season gets underway.
