Gold Surges 45% After Election | Black Friday Trading Deals & Bonus Accounts
One year ago, on November 5, 2024, Donald Trump won the election. Since then, gold has climbed 45.2% — not just impressive, but the strongest post-election year on record.
To put it in perspective, gold’s previous record was 43.6% following B Obama’s 2008 victory, and 31.8% after Carter’s 1976 win. Trump’s year just outshined them both.
📊 The perfect storm for gold
Expected Fed rate cuts made gold more appealing than bonds or savings accounts. Central banks and Asian investors drove massive demand. And Trump’s attacks on Jerome Powell—plus his tariff chaos—created exactly the kind of uncertainty that sends investors running to safe havens.
🔮 History suggests there’s more to come
Here’s where it gets interesting: after similar post-election gold rallies under Obama and Carter, gold kept rising in years two and three. According to Bespoke Investment Group, those patterns suggest this might not be a one-year wonder.
