Gold added $14.8 trillion in the last 12 months.

Gold added $14.8 trillion in the last 12 months. Silver added $4 trillion in the last 12 months. Gold quietly saw one of its strongest years, adding around $14.8 trillion in total market value. The move was driven by central bank buying, sticky inflation, and rising geopolitical risk. As volatility increased across equities and bonds, capital flowed into assets with long term trust. Gold does not chase narratives, but it consistently attracts money when confidence drops. This jump in value is a clear reminder of its role as a global store of value.
