Investors\u2019 confidence in precious metals has recently been fuelled by political unrest in France and the United States, the steady purchases of precious metals by central banks, and the US monetary policy favourable to the growth of the precious metals market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between 1 and 7 October, the global gold price rose by more than 2.2%, reaching $3,957 per troy ounce.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"932\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174240-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11764\" style=\"width:500px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174240-1.png 932w, https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174240-1-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174240-1-768x588.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 932px) 100vw, 932px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/commodities-news\/gold-prices-hit-record-highs-near-4000oz-amid-global-political-uncertainty-4274140\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The new all-time highs<\/a> for gold were driven by the rising probability of further US interest rate cuts. After the Federal Reserve reduced its benchmark rate by 25 basis points (0.25%) at the end of October, market-based futures analysis indicated a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cmegroup.com\/markets\/interest-rates\/cme-fedwatch-tool.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">79% probability<\/a> of another 50-basis point (0.5%) cut in December.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gold prices are supported not only by the US monetary policy encouraging consumption and domestic growth. Reports indicate that China\u2019s central bank increased its gold reserves for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestandard.com.hk\/wealth-and-investment\/article\/313456\/Chinas-central-bank-extends-gold-buying-for-11th-month\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11th consecutive month<\/a> in September. Given record-high gold prices, investors may interpret this decision by the Chinese government as a signal for a potential further rise in the price of the metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between 1 and 7 October, the global silver price rose by more than 2.3%, reaching $48.45 per troy ounce.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"963\" height=\"701\" src=\"https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174223.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11769\" style=\"width:533px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174223.png 963w, https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174223-300x218.png 300w, https:\/\/novitera.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Ekrano-kopija-2025-10-07-174223-768x559.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 963px) 100vw, 963px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The recent rise in silver prices has been influenced not only by US monetary policy decisions.

Investors are responding to the political chaos in both the US and France by actively increasing their holdings of precious metals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between 1 and 7 October, the global palladium price rose by more than 5%, reaching $1,326 per troy ounce.<br>The recent rise in palladium prices has been driven not only by demand for safe-haven assets but also by a favourable market outlook for the metal. The World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC) forecasts that global palladium supply will decline <a href=\"https:\/\/tradingeconomics.com\/commodity\/palladium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">by an average of 1.1% per year<\/a> through 2029.
