As an award-winning fixed interest broker offering THG Capital Savings Gold Bonds, we keep a close eye on the performance of gold, particularly in the face of tumultuous world events.  We can report that over recent months and leading up to the US elections gold markets have reversed course and are now changing direction slightly.  Markets moved acutely in reaction to a key macro data set, but other headwinds gold is facing now are more about the macro environment than a single data-based turn.

The key data set in question has been the assessment of consumer inflation in the US economy as the Fed’s first interest rate cut of -0.50% continued to trickle down through the economic machinery. Now with President-Elect Trump coming in and the hopeful reduction of global war threat, the safety hatch of gold is still deemed safe, but corrective prices could be coming.

Gold prices, which had already been compressed lower earlier. This fits with the view that the October CPI provides little argument for the FOMC to speed up their pace of cutting interest rates back to “neutral,” if inflation may prove to be stubborn or even resurgent.

So, this brings us beautifully to ‘where are investors heading?’

Gold streaming and high interest Gold Bonds have and always will reduce volatility compared to direct gold investment. These products offer the reliable methodology of buying cheap semi-refined gold from Africa, Asia and South America and refining it in authorised and recognised smelt locations. This channel of gold movement (gold streaming) is not immediately affected by fluctuations in gold process as the two individual prices of unrefined gold and Bullion move in tandem.

The smart move is to find a good, solid gold streaming-based investment company and stick with them, if you want less risk and high returns.
