What’s moving gold today

Gold is trading around $4,397.82 per ounce and is little changed today. In the news over the past 48 hours, the conversation around gold is led by Inflation / CPI, Fed & interest rates, US dollar.

Inflation / CPI

Deep-level mining costs rise with local wages and power tariffs, while the revenue side is fixed by a dollar price set elsewhere.

Fed & interest rates

This country mined most of the world supply for the best part of a century, yet the price it sells at has always been decided abroad.

US dollar

A weaker rand raises the rand value of an unchanged ounce, which is why local producers watch the currency as closely as the metal.

Safe-haven demand

A demand shock lifts the price of metal already above ground, and no shaft can be sunk quickly enough to answer it.

Bond yields

An ounce competes with a coupon and with a dividend, and it offers neither of them.

What traders say about trading gold with Exness:

★★★★★
es genial, los retiros llegan en un minuto, en los últimos días la interfaz o el sistema está dando error al abrir operaciones en el xausd uno o dos minutos antes de la pausa diaria, espero que puedan mejorarlo porque anteriormente sí se ejecutaba rápido las operaciones, gracias
