GOLD
Monday, July 21, 2025
Gold rose to around $3,364 per ounce, marking a 0.76% daily increase.
The price increase came as the US dollar went down and also because the central banks were increasing their gold reserves.
According to the World Gold Council, central bank demand for gold has hit record highs this year, with China, Turkey, and India among top buyers.
Inflation data out of the US (latest Consumer Price Index: +2.7% year-over-year) kept interest in gold high as an inflation hedge.

Gold jumped higher, reaching about $3,413 per ounce, up 1.45% from Monday.
Investors reacted to falling US Treasury yields, which tend to make “safe” assets like gold more attractive.
News broke about US tariff risks and upcoming trade deadlines, which tend to increase demand for gold.
Recently, gold prices have climbed over 26%, as a result of inflation worries and international tensions.

Gold prices didn't move much, ending the day at $3,428 per ounce (+0.07).
Some investors sold after the recent rally, while others held onto their bags, expecting relevant economic headlines like the central bank policy updates
Despite this pause, gold remains over 42% higher compared to July 2024, showing that it is a valuable asset.
