NEW YORK, Nov. 07, 2025 — Gold futures on the New York Commodity Exchange are maintaining record highs, exceeding $4,300 per ounce in October 2025. Gold has reached over 35 new record highs since the start of the year. Despite some pullbacks, international gold prices are holding around $4,000 per ounce.
The volatile gold market has caused some investors to be cautious. However, major financial institutions remain positive about gold’s long-term potential. According to the Lokmat Times, gold has risen over 61% in 2025, its best annual performance since the 1970s[1]. This surge is comparable to past bull markets like 1979–1980 and 2010–2011, but is now driven by Asian markets, central bank reserve diversification, and official sector purchases. Global gold ETF holdings have increased by over 450 tons, marking the largest annual inflow since 2020.
Due to strong gold prices, major financial institutions have increased their forecasts. Bank of America now projects a 2026 gold price target of $5,000 per ounce, with an average price expectation of $4,400[2]. Bank strategists suggest that if investment demand grows by 14%, gold could reach $5,000. In an optimistic scenario with 28% investment demand growth, gold might reach $6,000. HSBC, in an October 16 report, also highlighted that ongoing official sector purchases and institutional diversification should keep the gold market strong in 2026[3].
Against this market backdrop, Blue Hat Interactive Entertainment Technology (Nasdaq: BHAT) has demonstrated foresight with its early strategic actions. In the first half of 2025, the company sold 123 kilograms of gold, generating approximately $4.87 million in profits. Since starting its gold investment plan in August 2024, the company’s gold holdings now exceed 1 ton, with unrealized gains surpassing $25 million. Mr. Xiaodong Chen, CEO of the company, stated, “Given global economic uncertainty, gold’s safe-haven status and value preservation have been confirmed. Our gold investment reflects an accurate market assessment and is a key part of our diversification strategy. Our gold holdings have produced significant returns and established a strong base for further involvement in the precious metals sector. While market conditions have been favorable, we are focused on managing risks and regulatory requirements.”
