[Gold Breaks Record Again, Price Surpasses Inflation-Adjusted Peak from 45 Years Ago] Odaily Planet Daily reports that gold prices have surpassed the inflation-adjusted peak from 45 years ago. As concerns over the U.S. economic outlook intensify, gold has continued its strong bull market trend of the past three years and entered uncharted territory. So far this month, spot gold prices have risen about 5%, hitting a historic high of $3,674.27 on Tuesday. Since 2025, gold prices have set over 30 nominal price records, and the latest rally has also broken the inflation-adjusted high set on January 21, 1980—when gold prices reached $850 per ounce. Adjusted for decades of consumer price increases, that price is equivalent to approximately $3,590—though there are multiple methods for inflation adjustment, and some calculations yield a lower 1980 peak. However, analysts and investors unanimously agree that gold has now firmly surpassed this level, further solidifying its position as a timeless tool for hedging against inflation and currency depreciation.
