The Times: Why Buy Gold?

By  The Times / October 13, 2018 / www.bullionvault.com / Article Link

LONDON, 13 October 2018 - BullionVault analysis is quoted today by The Times, the UK's longest-running and now best-read 'quality' daily newspaper.

"Gold tends to do well when other investments are doing poorly," says The Times, quoting Adrian Ash, director of research at BullionVault.

Looking at what drives prices, "What really counts in the end is investment demand, where money comes into the bullion market from other investments, seeking safety," says Adrian.

"That's what drove gold prices higher during the dot.com crash, the financial crisis and the weeks after the EU referendum shock."

You'll find BullionVault's comments in the Money section of today's print edition. Or Times subscribers can read the full story online here:
