The gold market continues its hot trend in 2025. According to the latest data from the World Gold Council, gold prices have hit new record highs 53 times, and global investors continue to pour massive funds into gold ETFs. North America has contributed the core driving force behind global capital inflows, while Asian holdings have nearly doubled, and demand in the European market is also significant.

Where does investors' enthusiasm come from? First, in the context of escalating global trade frictions, tense geopolitical situations, and increased financial market volatility, the appeal of traditional safe-haven assets like gold has clearly risen. Second, the sustained rise in gold prices has attracted a lot of follow-on capital. Additionally, the decline in US Treasury yields and the relative weakening of the US dollar trend have also supported the upward movement of gold prices. The combined effect of these factors further strengthens global investors' demand for gold allocation.

Gold hits new highs again, it feels like the whole world is bottom-fishing... But honestly, is entering the market now just taking on the bag-holder role? --- 53 new highs, how crazy is that? I just want to know when to sell and run. --- Safe-haven assets are going viral, but Bitcoin is really attractive, everyone. --- Dollar weakens, gold rises—that logic I understand. The question is, when will it peak? --- Asian doubling positions, Asians really have money... --- Are those who follow the trend and buy gold all making profits? Feels like I came too late. --- Buying gold amid tense geopolitical situations, it's more about panic than safe-haven. --- Falling government bond yields mean a de facto encouragement to buy gold? That's interesting.

Gold hits yet another new high? I think it will peak soon. Be careful, all the FOMO traders. If you really want to hedge, you should have entered earlier. Those who entered now are probably just taking the losses, I feel. When the dollar is weak, gold rises. This logic, I think, is not that simple. Double growth in Asia? Has all the money from East Asia gone in? Don't just look at the data. Who the hell is buying at high levels? Is this wave really for hedging or just speculation? Time will tell. Treasury yields have rebounded before. Beware of a bull trap.

Damn, gold hits a new high again. I need to quickly add to my position or I'll lose everything. Everyone is copying the bottom of gold; this is true FOMO. Dollar depreciation causes gold to rise. Why do I feel something's off about this logic? Wait, Asia's doubling in growth? We must seize this opportunity. Gold's safe-haven properties are always real, but the current surge is a bit crazy. Too many people are following the trend, worried about when it will top out. I haven't counted how many new highs—53 times—but my account is skyrocketing in real-time, haha. Is this different? Or is it just the same old story repeating? History always repeats itself. Waiting for the day gold crashes, then it will be the perfect time to buy the dip.

Gold has risen to this level, is there still anyone who hasn't gotten on board? I see those folks in North America frantically buying up, and the doubling of data in Asia makes me feel that the whole world is betting on safe-haven assets. Basically, it's geopolitical turmoil, trade wars, and a weak dollar that have turned gold into the final fortress. There's too much money following the trend, and I really don't know when it will end.

Gold hits a new record again. What does this mean? Everyone is rushing... Really? 53 times? I'm still hesitating whether to buy the dip or not. Following the trend with aggressive funds—be careful of becoming the bagholder. Instead of chasing highs, it's better to wait for the dollar to rebound before entering. Once again, the narrative of safe-haven assets—do I sense a bubble? Is the doubling growth in Asia real data? It feels a bit exaggerated. Is it a bit late to enter now? What do you all think?

Gold hits a new high again, but I think this wave of enthusiasm is mixed with too much follow-the-leader... The demand for safe-haven assets definitely exists, but the real signal is probably the dollar's decline, right?

Gold hits a new high again, truly amazing… I'm still debating whether to jump in, and it just keeps rising. The recent surge in gold prices is a bit outrageous, is the risk aversion sentiment so strong? Follow-the-leader funds are pouring in crazily, it feels a bit like a bubble. Dollar depreciation boosts gold, I understand the logic, but this pace… I'm a little worried about being the bagholder. Asian holdings have doubled? Oh my god, is everyone bottom-fishing? 53 times hitting a new historical high, that number sounds exciting. Geopolitical tensions are fueling gold, a classic risk-averse logic, but can it really keep rising? Falling treasury yields, no wonder gold is so popular. It feels like the whole market is betting on gold, and this might actually be the most dangerous time.
