Asian Gold ETF Inflow Surge Raises Alarm, Market Concerned About Gold Price Approaching Near-Term Top
**Jan 30 (Bloomberg) — Asian-listed precious metal ETFs recorded ~$7.1 billion in net inflows in January, with multiple funds hitting all-time highs. The bulk of inflows came from Chinese retail investors, including ~$1.9 billion into Huaxia E-Fund Gold ETF alone.**
**Analysts warn a surge in retail participation often signals a market rally’s end—especially as gold’s RSI nears 90 (extremely overbought), lifting short-term pullback risk.**
**Gold’s recent sharp gains are backed by central banks’ ongoing purchases and inflows into physical gold-backed ETFs. World Gold Council data shows gold-backed fund holdings rose every month last year except May. U.S. policy unpredictability and growing isolationism are also driving investors to non-dollar assets, benefiting precious metals.**
