Spot gold was little-changed at $1,870 per ounce on Tuesday, hovering around its highest level since late January, as the US dollar fell to a three-month low and concerns over inflation persisted. The US Federal Reserve’s April Meeting Minutes due on Wednesday will also be monitored for further clarity on monetary policy outlook and policymakers' views on inflation. Aside from the inflation narrative, the precious metal benefited from safe-haven demand amid worsening coronavirus outbreaks in several Asian countries.

Historically, Gold reached an all time high of 2074.88 in August of 2020. Gold - data, forecasts, historical chart - was last updated on May of 2021.

Gold is expected to trade at 1834.97 USD/t oz. by the end of this quarter, according to Trading Economics global macro models and analysts expectations. Looking forward, we estimate it to trade at 1732.28 in 12 months time.

Gold
Gold is mostly traded on the OTC London market, the US futures market (COMEX) and the Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE). The standard future contract is 100 troy ounces. Gold is an attractive investment during periods of political and economic uncertainty. Half of the gold consumption in the world is in jewelry, 40% in investments, and 10% in industry. The biggest producers of gold are China, Australia, United States, South Africa, Russia, Peru and Indonesia. The biggest consumers of gold jewelry are India, China, United States, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Russia and UAE. The gold prices displayed in Trading Economics are based on over-the-counter (OTC) and contract for difference (CFD) financial instruments.
