Investors are now turning back to gold as their key safe-haven asset, JPMorgan said in a report released Thursday. The bank noted that significant capital is moving out of Bitcoin into exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and precious metals derivatives.

Gold that traders had been rushing to ship to New York since December, fearing potential US duties on imports, is now flowing back to Switzerland. The metal has been excluded from US President Donald Trump's latest tariff list, Reuters reports.

Citi Research hikes gold price target to $3,500 per ounce, up from $3,200 per ounce. The revision was influenced by recent buying activity from Chinese insurers and increased investor interest in the precious metal amid escalating trade uncertainties.

The latest Weekly Gold Survey by Kitco News indicates a slight weakening of the bullish sentiment of experts and retail traders towards gold prices. However, overall expectations for the main precious metal remain optimistic.

Gold pulled back from a record high of $3,357 an ounce on Thursday as investors took profits after a recent rally. Increased demand for the bullion was driven by escalating global trade uncertainties and new US restrictions on microchip shipments to China.

According to the WGC, gold prices both in China's domestic market and international one steadily climbed towards new record highs in Q1 of 2025. The rally gained significant momentum in March. Kitco News noted increasing inflows into gold-backed ETFs and cooling jewelry demand in China.

After reaching a record high on Monday, the price of gold rushed to another peak. On Wednesday, it hit a new all-time high near $3,275 per ounce. According to Bloomberg, the US President's unpredictable tariff policy keeps alarming the markets and stimulating demand for safe-haven assets.
