Gold has hit an all time today. Despite the narrative in the financial media, this is not a result of nominal rates, but is being driven by anticipation of falling “real rates” which leads to central bank accumulation , retail purchasing in Asia, and now a recent uptick in retail/institutional accumulation in the west via ETF inflows. “The metal has still soared nearly 20 per cent this year, supported by large purchases from central banks, strong consumer appetite in China and demand for haven assets amid geopolitical tensions. A recent uptick in holdings by exchange-traded funds is also aiding upward momentum.” #gold #inflation

Gold held steady around $2,690/oz on December 11th, 2024, pausing a two-day rally. Investors are eyeing inflation data, critical for the Fed's next rate decision. Expectations of loose monetary policies from central banks and escalating Middle East tensions continue to boost safe-haven demand. Meanwhile, China plans a looser monetary policy in 2025, and the PBoC resumed gold purchases after a six-month pause.

Gold is a resource whose purchase and sale prices are constantly traded across multiple markets. As a result, its value is mostly determined by supply and demand, often known as the gold price or gold listing. Other factors, in addition to supply and demand, may influence gold prices. This is true, for example, of choices made by major central banks such as the Fed or the ECB, which may decide to raise interest rates, the price of the dollar, and other exogenous factors such as geopolitics, economic and monetary crises, and so on. The London Bullion Market Association, which has published the LBMA Gold Price since 1919, currently sets the gold price on a daily basis. #BuyGoldinUganda,#GoldTrends,#GoldPricing

Rising gold prices are a warning and should be taken seriously... Another all-time high - even though central bank comments voiced today make three rate cuts this year less likely. Smart money chooses the only proven alternative to fiat money currency systems: gold. As you can read in my newsletter "Understand and Beat Inflation" gold prices are an early indicator how smart money (ultra-high networth individuals, hedge funds) and insiders (i.e. central banks) assess the stability of the currency systems used in the developed world. In "The World of Tomorrow" I anticipate a Perfect Inflation Storm as the most likely base case (with a second inflation shock waiting around the corner). It seems that smart money and insiders increasingly share this view. #gold #inflation #theworldoftomorrow #thereturnofhighinflation

Gold is touching sky high valuations and breaking records on a day to day basis. It is defying the years long understood negative correlation between Fed Rate and Gold prices. I am sure all of you must have come across various factors driving this rally but if I were to simply state them in a few bullet points: - Gold's status as the reserve metal of the world Institutional Push: - Geopolitical tensions driving the incessant gold purchasing of Central Banks - Reducing Exposure to Dollar Retail Push (also true for Institutional): - Hedge against Inflation Why would it continue: Rising Geopolitical tensions prompting countries and investors to look for safe haven assets. Thus, institutional demand for gold, driven by Central Bank is not going to subside as they are not at all price sensitive (evident by the PBC, RBI, CBRT etc.). Add to that a little sprinkle of polarisation and the de-dollarisation efforts. Would love to hear from you guys on any point that I might have missed. Cheers! #gold #markets

As the Federal Reserve prepares for a rate cut this week, many are questioning its impact on gold prices. Currently, gold is trading at an impressive $2,749.92 per ounce, having risen significantly throughout 2024. Historically, lower interest rates tend to support higher gold prices by reducing the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets. While some investors hope for a temporary dip in prices post-rate cut, analysts suggest that demand from central banks and ongoing global economic concerns may continue to drive prices upward. Predictions even suggest gold could reach $3,000 per ounce by year-end! For those considering gold as part of their investment strategy, now may be an opportune time to diversify portfolios.
