Due to the rise in the price of gold and the dollar exchange rate, the price of gold per gram has reached 5,950 lira, breaking an all-time record. Global uncertainties and the Fed's interest rate cuts have supported the increase in gold prices.
Gram gold prices have set a new record in the domestic market. Following the rise of spot gold above the level of 4,308 dollars, there was a rapid increase in gram gold as well. In the spot market, gram gold rose to 5,912 liras, reaching its historical peak.
During the day, gram gold gained approximately 1% in value and maintained its strong performance throughout the year. Spot gold reached 4,381 dollars with a 64% increase throughout 2025, renewing its historical peak, while gram gold provided nearly 100% return to investors over the year.
REASONS BEHIND THE RISE
In addition to the rise in spot gold, record levels in the dollar/TL exchange rate have also played a role in gram gold reaching its historical peak. The increase in geopolitical risks in the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Europe in global markets, the likelihood of wars, trade tensions, and political uncertainties have strengthened the demand for safe havens. The U.S. Federal Reserve's (Fed) decision to cut the policy interest rate by 25 basis points to a range of 3.50–3.75 on Wednesday night has also been among the factors supporting the rise in gold prices.
RECORD LEVELS IN SILVER AS WELL
In addition to the rise in gold, silver prices have also drawn attention. Spot silver reached 65 dollars, hitting an all-time record. Later in the day, spot silver was traded at 63.97 dollars. The upward trend in the dollar/TL exchange rate and the records in spot silver have also pushed gram silver higher. Gram silver rose to 87.94 liras.
