Gold's Biggest Year Since 1979: Why the West Is Now Buying Too & What’s Next | Joseph Cavatoni
Kitco News: 11-5-2024
Gold demand surged to historic highs in the third quarter, fueled by purchases from central banks, inflows to ETFs, and activity in opaque over-the-counter markets, as revealed in the World Gold Council’s Q3 2024 Gold Demand Trends Report.
In an interview, Jeremy Szafron, Anchor at Kitco News, discusses these findings with Joseph Cavatoni, Senior Market Strategist at the World Gold Council. Cavatoni provides a detailed breakdown of how geopolitical instability, from the U.S. election to escalating Middle Eastern tensions, is driving investors toward gold as a safe haven.
He also explains why the Western investor is getting back into gold. On top of that, he explores the impact of technology-driven demand, record mine production, and the constraints on consumer and jewelry purchases due to high prices.
