The support at 1,900 US dollars has held. The World Gold Council has just published its semi-annual report. Broadly, the report concludes that gold has fewer downside losses and more upside gains. This is because the global economy is seeing a near end to higher interest rates as well as the threat of a downturn. Gold prices are currently supported by a weaker dollar and fluctuating bond yields. And central banks are nearing the end of their tightening activities. Gold yields were quite positive in the first half of the year, and so it should continue. A hard landing is not off the table yet and if economic conditions worsen, more investors should jump on the gold bandwagon. The first half of the year saw a 5.4 percent gain. Gold also outperformed all other major assets except developed market equities. Thus, gold has once again shown itself to be a positive diversifier in investor portfolios.

This even notwithstanding the banking crisis in March. The World Gold Council sees upside potential for the rest of the year, although there are risks. Forecasts are for monetary policy to move from tightening to a holding pattern, with economic growth slowing. This is at least the case in the West. For China and India, however, the economy should perform well. China, at any rate, should be on economic stimulus. In previous holding patterns, which lasted between six and twelve months, the gold price at least earned a monthly return of 0.7 percent, which corresponds to an annual return of 8.4 percent. This should give pause for thought and also bring the values of gold companies increasingly back into focus.
