在美国总统特朗普发起的贸易战引发避险资产抢购潮、美元大幅下跌后，金价今年已飙升近50%，屡屡刷新历史高位。 周一，由于美国政府持续关门带来的不确定性加剧以及降息预期升温，现货黄金开局维持强势，一度向上触及3920美元/盎司，再创历史新高。此时距离首 次突破3800美元关口仅不到10天。 黄金正经历自20世纪70年代以来最凶猛的涨势，而"黄金版错失恐惧"（gold-plated FOMO）则在火上浇油——投资者既担心错过收益，又忧虑通胀风险， 纷纷将这一贵金属纳入投资组合。 即便今年夏季由关税引发的金融市场波动有所缓解，金价涨势仍在加速：仅9月单月涨幅就接近12%，创下2011年以来的最大单月涨幅。 资产管理公司表示，多年来各国央行储备管理者持续大举购金，如今更多类型的投资者也纷纷加入这波涨价热潮，成为推动金价上涨的关键催化剂。 "这就是黄金版的错失恐惧，"百达资产管理公司（Pictet Asset Management）首席策略师卢卡·保利尼（Luca Paolini）表示。他提到，这种"错失恐惧"的情绪 也推动了大型科技股及信贷等其他市场的大幅上涨。 美国银行金属研究主管迈克尔·威德默（Michael Wi ...
