LONDON, 12 January 2022 - BullionVault director of research Adrian Ash was a guest this morning on the BBC World Service's flagship Newsday current affairs show.

"Among all the sources of gold demand," Adrian told BBC radio's global listeners, "investment demand is what drives gold prices, and in 2020 we saw record inflows. That proved a hard act to follow."

Looking briefly at the impact on gold of inflation jumping in the second half of last year, Adrian explains the risk of a 'Fed mistake' in raising rates too late here in 2022.
