Last week, the world gold market fluctuated strongly, recording an increase of more than 2% compared to the previous week and the sixth consecutive week of price increase, as escalating trade tensions between the US and China continued to push investors to seek this safe haven asset.

At the close of trading on February 7, spot gold prices increased by 0.2% to 2,861.46 USD/ounce. US gold futures prices increased by 0.36% to 2,866.4 USD/ounce.

According to economists, US President Donald Trump may have initiated a new trade war by announcing additional tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China. This is the main reason supporting the increase in gold prices.

The main focus of the gold market right now remains uncertainty surrounding President Trump's tariff policies, said David Meger , director of metals trading at High Ridge Futures.

The gold market appears to be being driven by continued growth in gold holdings by the People's Bank of China (PBoC, the central bank) and a new program by the country that allows hedge funds to invest in gold, according to Peter Grant , vice president and senior metals strategist at precious metals trading firm Zaner Metals.

According to Kitco News , central banks started 2025 the same way they ended 2024 with continued increases in gold reserves.

Krishan Gopaul , senior EMEA analyst at the World Gold Council, analyzed central bank gold buying last month.

China once again increased its gold reserves in January, buying 5 tonnes of the precious metal, he said.

Analysts are particularly focused on the world's second-largest economy. This is the third consecutive month that the People's Bank of China has increased its gold reserves, after a six-month pause. Previously, the bank had 18 consecutive months of net purchases.

“Last month’s purchases helped lift China’s gold reserves to 2,285 tonnes,” said Mr Gopaul.

Although China has significantly increased its gold holdings, the precious metal still accounts for only about 5% of the Northeast Asian nation’s total foreign exchange reserves. Analysts say China has plenty of room to increase its gold holdings to 10%, putting it more in line with other developed market central banks.

China is not the only country buying gold. Analyst Gopaul noted that data from the National Bank of Poland showed that it bought three tonnes of gold in January.

"The move brings the country's total gold reserves to 451 tonnes - 26% higher than January 2024 and 97% higher than January 2023," Gopaul said.

Poland was the biggest buyer of gold last year, with its national bank increasing its reserves by 90 tonnes.

Elsewhere in Europe, Gopaul reports that the Czech National Bank also bought 3 tonnes of gold in January.

"The country's total gold holdings are now 53 tonnes, 63% higher than at the end of January 2024. Gold also now accounts for more than 3% of total international reserves."

Finally, Uzbekistan was the biggest buyer of gold last month, with its central bank buying 8 tonnes of gold.

"The country's total gold holdings are now 391 tonnes, the highest since February 2023 (393 tonnes)," said Mr. Gopaul.

Government gold purchases dominated the gold market last year, with central banks collectively buying 1,045 tonnes of the precious metal, according to the World Gold Council's (WGC) annual and fourth quarter 2024 trends report released on March 5.

“Notably, 2024 is the third consecutive year that demand exceeds 1,000 tonnes – well above the 2010-2021 annual average of 473 tonnes and contributing to gold’s performance,” the WGC said.

Looking ahead, the WGC expects central banks to continue to support the precious metals market.

“Central banks have been net buyers for the past 15 years, but their thirst for gold shows no signs of stopping,” analysts said.

In an interview with Kitco News , Joseph Cavatoni , market strategist at the WGC, said that given the high level of geopolitical uncertainty, it is no surprise that central banks are diversifying away from the USD.

“The case for gold is clear and understandable,” he said. “When we look at central banks’ demand, their rationale for owning gold remains strong. Rising government debt and a changing geopolitical landscape suggest that central banks will continue to buy gold.”

Analyst Cavatoni added that he does not expect rising gold prices to deter central banks from buying gold through 2025.
