Could we see gold staging a 1980s-style rally into January 2026? The parallels are intriguing—inflationary pressures, geopolitical tensions, and real asset demand are colliding. Back then, gold surged to historic highs as traditional monetary policy faced limits. Today's macro environment mirrors that era in surprising ways. If institutional capital rotates toward safe-haven assets over the next few months, precious metals could mirror that explosive upside. The question isn't just whether gold tops—it's whether the broader commodity supercycle accelerates alongside it.

Replaying in the 80s? Come on, back then there were no spot ETFs and not as many retail investors bottom-fishing.

1980s repeat? Pull it down, this time it's different, the Fed can hold it this time
History is never simply repeated, and I understand the logic of institutions buying gold, but now the interest rate hike environment is too bad, don't be deceived by the narrative
Half of the price of gold depends on speculation, and the other half is real demand, and the most feared is that retail investors will follow the trend and take over
When do you believe it when you look at the fund's position, and the mouth cannon pulls the most weak
Wait, this logic is to say that the gold ETF is copied before January? I'll wait and see

The wave of the 1980s? Hmm... sounds good, but the real payers are still institutions. Retail investors like us will probably have to chase the high again.

1980s market rally? Wake up, this time is different
---
Same old story, always comparing to history, but what’s the result?
---
Geopolitical + inflation collision does look intimidating, but do institutions really cooperate like that?
---
Gold price is rising, but the super cycle might be a bit exaggerated
---
Wait, is the safe haven they’re talking about still gold? Why does it seem like everyone is piling into Bitcoin now?
---
1980s? Discussions about interest rates are just nonsense. The Fed’s playbook is different now
---
Just listen to institutional rotation, don’t take it seriously. I already invested in my wallet
---
Haha, trying to trick me into buying gold again? I’d rather look at copper and rare earths first
---
History never repeats exactly, but it rhymes. Why does this sentence sound more and more like nonsense?
---
Commodity super cycle? Forget it, this round’s main players are chips and energy, not precious metals

Here comes the 80s benchmarking theory again? Bro, I don't believe you. You said the same thing last time, and what was the result?

Wait, that wave of the 1980s market? Easy to talk about, but can it really be replicated? It feels like now it's all just echo chamber discussions.
