Outlook
Demand for the commodity dipped 6 percent to 929 tonnes in the second quarter of 2024, led by a sharp decline in the jewellery segment.
As per the World Gold Council’s report, central bank gold buying was 6 percent higher at 183 tonnes.
“Gold used in technology jumped 11 percent yoy, as the AI trend continued to drive demand in the sector,” WGC said.
The organisation noted that US elections are also likely to impact gold.
“Elections have not, historically, had a significant or immediate effect on gold's performance, but regardless of the winning candidate, near-term geopolitical risks remain high and may serve as a catalyst for gold,” said WGC.
