Gold Surpasses US Treasuries for the First Time in 30 Years

Beyond a market event, the quiet rotation from paper to metal marks a potential turning point in the architecture of global finance.

Data shared by Barchart confirmed the crossover, with central banks continuing their record-breaking gold buying streak into 2025.
