Gold Market Commentary

In its August 3, 2017 update the World Gold Council estimates gold demand was down 14% H1 2017 over H1 2016 to 2,003.8t from 2,318.7t.The decrease in demand is attributed primarily to gold ETF and investment demand which both decreased significantly from record levels in H1 2016.Central bank demand was also modestly negative year over year.These declines were partially offset by modest year of year increases in other key areas of demand such as jewellery, technology and physical bars and coins. We believe the outlook for gold demand for the remainder of the year is positive and will be supported by various factors such as; ongoing geopolitical risks, rising inflation expectations and golds perpetual reputation as a safe haven investment.
