World Gold Council: Global Gold ETFs See Net Inflow of $5.3 Billion in February

Odaily News The World Gold Council released data showing that global gold ETFs experienced a net inflow of $5.3 billion in February, marking the ninth consecutive month of inflows and the strongest annual start on record. Driven by continued rising gold prices boosting valuations, the total global gold assets under management (AUM) climbed to a record high of $701 billion, with global holdings reaching 4,171 tons. North America and Asia were the main drivers of the inflows, while Europe, affected by a sell-off wave in late January, saw outflows at the beginning of the month. Global average daily trading volume fell to $478 billion but remained significantly higher than 2025 levels. (Jin10)
