Unprecedented monetary easing has expanded the US Federal Reserve's balance sheet to a new record. According to St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank, the size of the Fed's balance sheet broke the previous record of $7.17 trillion set in October and reached $7.24 trillion. During the current year, the figure rose by almost 80%, which led to higher inflationary expectations and supported gold. The yellow metal rose by 20+% this year, marking a record high of $2.075 in August.
