VanEck's Alice Shen gives an insightful presentation on gold prices and the markets. You’ll gain valuable insights and explore the following:
Gold reached a new all-time high this year, with its miners following suit. Despite being one of the best-performing asset classes so far in 2025 and gold prices climbing beyond USD 4,000, gold continues to be under-represented in investor portfolios.
A higher gold price largely correlates with investors’ increasing unease about a weakening global financial system. Currently, investors are worried about government indebtedness, geopolitical risks, tariffs and central bank mismanagement – none of which are not going away anytime soon.
VanEck believe in gold’s winning streak, and therefore its miners, is likely to continue. They provide a clear view of what is currently driving the price of gold, the fundamental and technical factors supporting the price, and the catalysts that are shaping its future potential growth.
