World Gold Council: Global gold ETF net inflows of $5.3 billion in February

World Gold Council: Global Gold ETF Net Inflows in February Reach $5.3 Billion, Achieving the Ninth Consecutive Month of Fund Inflows and Setting the Strongest Annual Start in History. Due to the continuous rise in the price of gold pushing up valuations, the total global gold assets under management have climbed to a historical high of $701 billion, with global holdings reaching 4,171 tons. North America and Asia are the main drivers of fund inflows, while Europe experienced outflows at the beginning of the month due to the January sell-off. The global daily trading volume has decreased to $478 billion, but is still significantly higher than the levels in 2025.
