Schroders Investment Insights: The Case for Gold in 2024 Schroders Investment Insights highlights a remarkable trend in the gold market: despite the significant rise in real interest rates in the US over 2022 and 2023, gold prices have remained near all-time highs, currently around US$2000 per ounce. This trend breaks the conventional pattern where gold prices typically fall with rising interest rates and positive real rates on government bonds. Schroders attributes this anomaly to a shift in gold’s behavior post-2008 Global Financial Crisis. Following the crisis, quantitative easing policies and concerns over long-term monetary debasement strengthened gold’s appeal as a monetary asset rather than just a commodity. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Powell Signals Potential Rate Cuts Pending Inflation Control READ MORE WGC: Gold Demand to Hit Record With Central-Bank Buying READ MORE More Americans Apply for Unemployment Benefits But Layoffs Still Historically Low READ MORE Gold still has upside, despite new record high – BofA Securities READ MORE We Are 'Late In the Game' of Controlled Financial Demolition READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
