What’s moving gold today
Gold is trading around $4,375.94 per ounce and is up today. In the news over the past 48 hours, the conversation around gold is led by Inflation / CPI, US dollar, Fed & interest rates.
Inflation / CPI
A domestic saver watching prices rise has a shorter list of options than a saver elsewhere, and metal is on it.
US dollar
The metal price tracks the dollar closely enough that holding it is a partial substitute for holding the currency.
Fed & interest rates
Where access to foreign currency is restricted, metal becomes one of the few ways to hold value that moves with the dollar.
Safe-haven demand
Demand rises fastest where the alternatives are hardest to obtain, which is not the same as where the news is worst.
Bond yields
A local deposit paying less than inflation makes an asset paying nothing look comparatively reasonable.
