Gold price have flown to new all-time highs now. The current gold surge is due to increased demand as a safe-haven asset amid global economic uncertainty, high inflation, the Federal Reserve’s independence and geopolitical risks. The price of gold relies on market sentiment and demand. When people are fearful of the economy, demand for gold rises and its price increases. But when people become less fearful, demand for gold falls, and its price decreases. Gold price is always volatile and difficult to gauge. Most investors would invest in gold ETF for example $iShares Gold Trust(IAU)$ or $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ to play safe. Thanks @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG @GoodLife99
CME Relaxes Margins: Will "Gold Rush" Comeback?
Effective after the close on March 6, 2026, the CME Group has slashed initial margin requirements for Gold (from 9% to 7%) and Silver (from 18% to 14%). This move signals an end to a relentless cycle of six consecutive margin hikes that aimed to curb the "volatility" in early 2026. The fundamental demand remains institutionalized: the World Gold Council reports a massive $5.3 billion net inflow into gold ETFs in February, 9 consecutive month of growth. Will margin cut invite a fresh wave of leveraged speculators? Will gold start a sustained rebound?
