# Analysts see $5,000 as gold’s new price floor

Why $5,000 matters: Analysts argue that combined central bank and ETF demand could make $5,000 an ounce a lasting support level for gold. Central bank strategy: Emerging-market central banks have been replacing dollar reserves with bullion since 2022, accelerating after sanctions on Russia’s reserves. Investor shift: Western ETF investors, who largely missed the early rally, are now increasing positions, adding momentum to gold prices.
