Gold has shown notable performance year-to-date in 2025, leading among key assets. Despite a recent decline of 5.7% in the GLD ETF, gold prices remain strong compared to major currencies and indices. Data from the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) PM Fix and IMF Special Drawing Rights (SDR) indicate gold's price performance in US dollars, euros, British pounds, Japanese yen, Chinese yuan, Indian rupees, and Russian rubles since 2000. Comparisons of gold's returns against the S&P 500 Total Return Index reveal that gold has maintained resilience in the current market environment. Various charts highlight gold's price growth across different currency pairs and its relationship with silver prices.
