Analyst: Traders need not worry about the US dollar, but should be cautious of gold risks
BlockBeats news, January 29, market analyst Jeremy Boulton stated that traders need not worry excessively about the US dollar, which has shown significant resilience; the real concern is gold, whose price has surged in a highly unstable manner, greatly increasing the risk of a market reversal, especially for an asset that some investors view as safer than global reserve currencies.
Gold prices have increased by over 27% just this month. Although almost everyone is discussing this round of increases, there are very few traders actually buying gold. The current long positions are even smaller than those at the beginning of 2025, when Trump resumed power and sparked a trade war. This indicates that the nature of the current buying is different. The current surge in gold prices is extremely distorted. Any extreme movements are worth being cautious about. (Jin Shi)
