GOLD WEBCAST – Gold price hits 2015 low, China announces gold reserves

Otmane El Rhazi from The Bullion Desk.

  • It’s been another dire week to be involved in the precious metals market this week, gold hit its lowest level seen in 2015 so far.
  • There’s likely to be a number of driving factors, but ultimately, weak physical demand, a lack of safe-haven interest and a dollar that is picking up some real pace is painting a bad picture for gold.
  • The Chinese central bank has reported its first official increase to gold reserves in six years – reserves are now over 1600 tonnes.
  • Platinum and palladium are also looking dire at the moment, with platinum in particular dropping through $1,000 per ounce for the first time in six years.
