Gold is not only of great interest to central banks but increasingly to people of all ages. Currently, gold demand in tons as well as in the value of trading volumes is greater than ever before. The third quarter of 2024 saw a global demand of 1,313 tons of gold, which is five percent higher than the third quarter of 2023. For the first time, the value exceeded $100 billion. Notably, central banks tend to purchase gold when it is considered "cheap." Others buy gold even when it is expensive. The declining demand for gold in the jewelry sector did not alter the massive overall demand for gold in the third quarter.

In the jewelry sector, the high price seems to deter gold purchases. China recorded its worst third quarter since 2010. In contrast, India saw a different trend, where reduced import duties spurred gold purchases. Particularly strong in the third quarter was the demand for gold for investments, especially regarding ETFs and securities. The industrial sector is also increasingly requiring gold, including electronic products such as smartphones and computer chips – especially with the rise of artificial intelligence. According to the World Gold Council, record levels of gold production may be expected. Geopolitical tensions, declining interest rates, and ongoing interest from central banks are likely to support gold prices, and new record prices are possible.

Short-term pullbacks are normal and should be accepted calmly, as fundamentally, everything points to gold. Gold is long-term stable in value. Mining companies with gold in the ground deserve attention, such as Osisko Development or Revival Gold.

Osisko Development – https://www.commodity-tv.com/play/news-miata-metals-osisko-dev-collective-mining-premier-american-uranium-and-millennial-potash/ – focuses on previously producing gold projects and is involved in projects in Canada, Mexico, and the USA.

Revival Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/play/revival-gold-update-on-current-status-of-pea-and-latest-exploration-at-beatrack-arnett/ – is a pure gold mining developer in the western USA. Special attention should be given to the Mercur gold project in Utah and the Beartrack-Arnett gold project in Idaho.
