Daily price movements in pesos

The gold market showed positive momentum. The one-gram price increased by 0.17 percent. The tola price rose by 0.16 percent. These gains align with broader safe-haven demand. Investors often buy gold during periods of uncertainty.

Central banks drive global demand

Central banks remain the largest holders of gold. They add to reserves to support currency strength. In 2022, central banks purchased 1,136 tonnes of gold. This was the highest annual purchase on record. Emerging economies like China and India lead these buys.

Dollar strength influences gold price

Gold has an inverse correlation with the US dollar. A weaker dollar typically pushes gold prices higher. A stronger dollar often suppresses the metal's value. Gold is priced in dollars globally. Interest rates also impact the asset. Lower rates tend to favor gold holdings.
