World Gold Council Predicts "Much Slower" Growth for Gold in 2025 Gold prices are expected to experience more modest growth in 2025, following a record-breaking year in 2024, according to the World Gold Council's 2025 outlook. After reaching multiple record highs and delivering its best annual performance in a decade, gold is set for slower growth next year. The 28% surge in gold prices through November was driven by central bank and investor buying, with slowing consumer demand, particularly from China, partially offsetting these gains.
