20 August 2021The U.S. and British military withdrawals from Afghanistan demonstrate the fragility of the current world order as we know it and could hugely benefit gold investment as hatches are battened down against stormy times ahead
19 August 2021Our expectations that the gold price might get back over $1,800 this week seem to have been dashed, but the global political fallout from the ridiculously rapid regime change in Afghanistan may lead to a new lease of life for gold once the ramifications really sink in.
05 August 2021The latest gold withdrawals figures from the Shanghai Gold Exchange for July have come in sharply below the June figure, although still well above those for the same month in 2020. Thus Chinese gold demand looks like it hasn't recovered significantly yet and may still fall short of the 2019 full year total.
02 August 2021Latest Swiss gold export figures continue to show relatively low levels of refined gold exports to India and China
25 July 2021Brazil's is the latest Central Bank to up its gold reserves by a significant amount buying 41 tonnes in June. Even so the gold price continues to stutter around the $1,800 level.
20 July 2021The current week started with across-the-board falls in most assets, with the notable exception of gold and the U.S. dollar, which both seem to be sticking to their safe have attributes.
19 July 2021Despite the continuing weakness in the bitcoin price, gold seems as if it may be drifting downwards too and silver is faring even worse. Will the precious metals prices reverse and start to gain again? The prospects for price recovery look good.
08 July 2021Latest withdrawal figures for the month of June from the Shanghai Gold Exchange continue to see month-on-month gains over 2020 figures, but for the first time this year have exceeded those for the same month in 2019 too suggesting that demand in the world's No.1 consumer is definitely picking up.
02 July 2021Gold, silver and platinum have all underperformed our price expectations as predicted back in December 2020, while palladium has done better than we anticipated. As a consequence we have recast our precious metals price predictions for the year end accordingly.
29 June 2021The Basel III accord came into play on Monday for the European banking sector (with the exception of the UK where the accord is not due to be implemented until the beginning of 2022). Some initial expectations that this would have a major impact on precious metals markets has not occurred, although it is early days yet.
