What’s happening

  • Gold recently peaked above US $4,300/oz before dropping ~2 % (or more) in a short span, after hitting a record high.

Central Banks and GOLD

Many central banks all around the world own gold. In fact, since the late 90s, central banks around the world have been net buyers of gold.
