GOLD'S ANNUAL PERFORMANCE DRAWS ATTENTION
Analysts state that central banks continuing their gold purchases is supporting the rise in prices. This year, gold has gained 70 percent in value, marking its best annual performance since 1979.
KCM Trade Chief Market Analyst Tim Waterer stated that tensions between the US and Venezuela have made gold a safe haven for investors. Waterer said, "Gold has shown a sharp rise this week on expectations that US interest rates will fall further." He also noted that investors continue to use precious metals to diversify their portfolios and preserve value, adding, "I don't think we have reached the peak in gold or silver yet."
