Gold FAQs
Why do people invest in Gold?
Gold has played a key role in human’s history as it has been widely used as a store of value and medium of exchange. Currently, apart from its shine and usage for jewelry, the precious metal is widely seen as a safe-haven asset, meaning that it is considered a good investment during turbulent times. Gold is also widely seen as a hedge against inflation and against depreciating currencies as it doesn’t rely on any specific issuer or government.
Who buys the most Gold?
Central banks are the biggest Gold holders. In their aim to support their currencies in turbulent times, central banks tend to diversify their reserves and buy Gold to improve the perceived strength of the economy and the currency. High Gold reserves can be a source of trust for a country’s solvency. Central banks added 1,136 tonnes of Gold worth around $70 billion to their reserves in 2022, according to data from the World Gold Council. This is the highest yearly purchase since records began. Central banks from emerging economies such as China, India and Turkey are quickly increasing their Gold reserves.
How is Gold correlated with other assets?
Gold has an inverse correlation with the US Dollar and US Treasuries, which are both major reserve and safe-haven assets. When the Dollar depreciates, Gold tends to rise, enabling investors and central banks to diversify their assets in turbulent times. Gold is also inversely correlated with risk assets. A rally in the stock market tends to weaken Gold price, while sell-offs in riskier markets tend to favor the precious metal.
What does the price of Gold depend on?
The price can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can quickly make Gold price escalate due to its safe-haven status. As a yield-less asset, Gold tends to rise with lower interest rates, while higher cost of money usually weighs down on the yellow metal. Still, most moves depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAU/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Gold controlled, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to push Gold prices up

The year 2024 was set to be a judicial minefield for Donald Trump, with some thinking the former president could be behind bars before the November 5 presidential election.
However, the Republican candidate has managed to delay three of the four trials until after the election, despite facing 88 criminal charges in total.
He pulled it off via an array of appeals and other tactics by his army of lawyers, including a broad immunity ruling by the US Supreme Court.
He was only found guilty in the least serious case, which involved falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels.
The latest good news for Trump came Friday, when a judge officially delayed his sentencing in that case to November 26 -- weeks after the US presidential election.
Here’s an overview of how his legal woes look currently.
NZD/JPY Price Analysis: Bears extend their control, aiming for 87.00
The NZD/JPY pair fell sharply on Friday and reaching a low of 87.85.
The RSI has plunged to 36, indicating that the bears are in full control and the negative momentum is likely to persist.
Bears have the 87.00 threshold on their sight.
The NZD/JPY pair has maintained its bearish stance, extending the selloff that started in Tuesday's session. Technical indicators strongly suggest that the bears have the upper hand, and the pair could continue to decline in the coming days.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has reached 36 and approaches the oversold threshold. However, after the pair shed more than 3% this week, the cross might consolidate in the next sessions, as bears might run out of steam.
The 20-day SMA at 0.6160 provides strong support against the selling pressure but a break below this level would open the door for further declines toward 0.610-0.6150. However, if the pair manages to hold the line, the 0.6200 could be retested.
