47 highs for gold, 41 for S&P 500, none for Nifty this calendar year

- SAI ARAVINDH

The benchmark Nifty 50 index has yet to scale a new peak in calendar year 2025, in stark contrast to the 65 record highs it hit in 2024 — one of the highest in a single year. The last time the index failed to notch up a record was in 2016. Before that, it went without fresh highs in 2010, 2011 and 2012 over the past 15 years.

Gold, meanwhile, has already set 47 new records this year — the second-highest on record after 57 highs in 1979. So far in 2025, the Nifty and Sensex have risen about 6.5 per cent, while gold and silver have surged 58 per cent and 80 per cent, respectively. In June, the Nifty came within 2.2 percent of a new peak at 25,669, compared to its all-time closing high of 26,216 on September 26, 2024.
