According to a note issued by brokerage firm Pepperstone, gold extended its remarkable rally, trading north $4,235 per ounce after breaking above the $4,200 thresholds, sustaining a strong early-session bid.

“The metal is experiencing one of its most stable bull runs in years, powered by a softer dollar and expectations of rate cuts. Over the past month, gold has surged 15 per cent with shallow pullbacks of less than two per cent, signalling robust and one-of-a-kind wide demand from both institutional and retail investors.

"It has increasingly become a core component of diversified portfolios, particularly as concerns mount over elevated US equity valuations and growing chatter about a potential tech bubble. While such fears may be overstated, the perception alone continues to support gold as an anchor for such anxieties. A short-term pullback would appear healthy, but the broader trend remains firmly upward,” Pepperstone analysts said in the note.
