March has seen gold’s price soar, hitting a new record of USD 2,221 per ounce, fueled by the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) announcement of three projected rate cuts this year. Despite a slight dip following a surge in the dollar, gold is on track for a 7% gain this month, with silver not far behind at a 10% increase. This rally comes after both metals faced declines earlier in the year, reacting to rising dollar values and U.S. Treasury yields, which were influenced by higher inflation expectations and reduced rate cut forecasts.
