'The rally has been fueled by a powerful cocktail of safe-haven and hedge fund purchases,' said James Steel, chief precious metals analyst at HSBC Securities.

Hedge funds and other money managers have been stepping up wagers on gold as the bullion reached a series of new highs on the back of reaccelerating inflation. Overweighting precious metals has become the consensus among the largest money managers, with 83% of them being long the asset class, a new Citi analysis of top investors overseeing more than $18 trillion showed. The study also found that gold is the only commodity that big allocators added to over the past month.

David Neuhauser, founder of Northbrook, Illinois-based hedge fund Livermore Partners, told CNBC that he has increased his weighting in gold to over 20% recently, and that includes gold miner stocks and the yellow metal itself. "With inflation well above trend and being extremely sticky, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that gold could serve in a great capacity," Neuhauser said in a phone interview.
