What moves the gold price?
- Real interest rates. Gold pays no interest, so it competes with bonds. When inflation-adjusted yields fall, holding gold becomes relatively more attractive and prices tend to rise.
- The US dollar. Gold is priced in dollars, so a weaker dollar usually makes it cheaper for buyers in other currencies and supports the price.
- Central bank demand. Official-sector buying and selling is one of the largest single sources of demand and is watched closely every quarter.
- Safe-haven flows. Geopolitical stress and equity sell-offs often send investors toward gold, although the reaction is not guaranteed.
- Jewellery and industrial demand. Jewellery, especially in India and China, is a large and seasonal part of physical demand.
