Abstract:Global gold price rose by nearly 17% to 1,779.53 USD/oz in the first half of 2020, a 8-year high since October 8, 2012, compared with an annual increase of 18% last year.
WikiFX News (4 July) - Global gold price rose by nearly 17% to 1,779.53 USD/oz in the first half of 2020, a 8-year high since October 8, 2012, compared with an annual increase of 18% last year.
In the first half of 2020, worldwide major central banks and government released intensively unexpected QE policy due to sharply sluggish economy caused by the deterioration of geopolitical situation and rapidly increasing spread of COVID-19 in the world. The huge uncertainties resulting from the pandemic also dealt a heavy blow to the stock market from late February to mid March. US stock index and S&P 500 plummeted by over 35%, both hitting a record low since the fourth quarter of 2016.
Investors sold gold positions in a bullish market without hesitation to make up their margin deficit, which caused a sharp falling in gold price, plunging by US$250 from 1,700 to nearly 1,450. As a whole, worldwide countries took low interest monetary measures, which is considered as a good new for gold.
Danial Hynes, senior commodity strategist of ANZ, said: “In a mid term, gold is favorable to invest, as we estimated that there are indeed more increasing space for gold price.”

For the past few years, gold has been riding a seemingly never-ending trend, and recently silver has decided to join the race, and both of these assets made headlines across the world because of how well they were performing.

Malaysia’s retail gold prices have hit record highs, with 999 fine gold reaching RM700 per gram and 916 gold rising to RM650, driven by surging global gold prices, geopolitical tensions, and growing expectations of further US interest rate cuts.

Gold has made yet another all-time high, but this time, nobody is talking about it.

The spectacular year-end rally in precious metals hit a wall on Monday, as gold and silver prices collapsed from fresh all-time highs. Traders aggressively booked profits in a market thinning out for the holidays, amplifying volatility and triggering a sharp technical correction.
