Foreign media reports that the price of an ounce of gold in the world market has exceeded US$5,000 for the first time in history.
Experts also predict that the price of gold will exceed US$5,500 by the end of this year.
It is also reported that the price of an ounce of silver has exceeded US$100 and the price of an ounce of palladium has exceeded US$2,000.
Foreign media say that the continuous increase in the price of gold has been influenced by the decisions of US President Donald Trump.
The media reported that the US’s ouster of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, Trump’s statements regarding Greenland, US strategic interests in the Arctic, and the recent warning of a 100% tariff on goods imported from Canada have also contributed to the rise in gold prices.
