Gold Continuing to Ebb and Flow in Today’s Ever-Changing Economic Climate with Krishan Gopaul - a podcast by Rob Tyson

In this episode, we chat with Krishan again, a Senior Analyst at the World Gold Council and discuss some of the Gold Demand Trends in Q2 and Q3 of this year. He and Rob also discuss the Gold Market outlook for the remainder of the year and the start of 2023.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The war in Ukraine led to gold market prices coming off slightly during Q2 of 2022.


• Chinese lockdowns have also had an impact during Q2.


• Q3 saw substantial outflows of around 227 tonnes from ETFs.


• For Q3 the coin and bar sector was robust, and jewellery and central bank purchasing was also up.


• If you register at goldhub.com you get access to all the datasets the World Gold Council uses.


• Jewellery underwent a firm recovery. Krishan explains how and the role China had in this.


• When inflation is high, initially private individuals tend to move money into gold which typically holds its value better.


• How gold performs now depends on whether the primary focus is on inflation or on interest rates. Why is explained in the episode.


• Crypto has been quite turbulent, and some of those investors are turning to gold.


• Central banks have bought a record amount of gold, and many are planning to continue to do so. Why is explained, in the podcast.


• Upcoming festivals and celebrations usually lead to an uptick in demand for gold jewellery. That should still happen in Q4, but inflation may make this spike smaller.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘Quarter two was slightly weaker than what we saw in quarter one. ´

‘Jewellery demand overall in q3 was back up to those pre-COVID levels.’

‘It could be that some people are looking to gold, given the turbulence that we've seen in the crypto space,’
