$4000 Gold – This Won’t End Well!

Oct 8, 2025, 1:18 PM EDT

Gold has moved above $4,000 an ounce.

For investors, this raises understandable questions. How much higher will it climb? Is it time to take profits? Should you wait for a pullback? Is this the top of the market?

In truth, gold’s most recent rise has less to do with excitement and more to do with fatigue. Markets are showing the strain of too many unresolved pressures. The United States is in the middle of one of its longest government shutdowns. France is once again struggling to form a stable government. The Bank of England has warned that equity markets, especially those tied to artificial intelligence, may be overvalued. The dollar has strengthened, yet gold continues to rise alongside it.

These are signs of a world searching for reliability rather than growth. Gold is responding to that search. It is not reacting to one event, but to a pattern of uncertainty that has been building for years.

In this week’s GoldCore TV, Jan Skoyles looks beyond the headlines to explain what this moment means for investors. She discusses the world’s growing financial pressures, central bank demand, and why the move to $4,000 is not the end of a trend but part of a much broader revaluation of risk and trust.
