The Precious Metals Market was USD 281.46 Bn in 2024 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.1 % from 2025 to 2032, reaching USD 564.96 Bn by 2032. Precious metals tend to be in high demand during periods of inflation because, as inflation increases, the value of fiat currencies decreases. Precious metals are usually in higher demand when interest rates are low or negative. Central banks can alter the market by buying or selling precious metals. Central banks play an important role in the price of gold and other precious metals, indicating economic strength or an intention to diversify away from the US dollar, which increases the metal value. The supply of precious metals depends on the amount of mining production, which may be constrained by factors such as exploration and extraction costs, environmental regulations, and labor strikes. Precious metals mining is limited to a few countries, like gold in China, Russia, and Australia. Investors can get exposure to precious metals without taking physical delivery through exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and other financial instruments. In the United States over $19.2 billion was invested into gold-backed exchange trade funds (ETFs) in 2025.
