What’s moving gold today

Gold is trading around $4,564.49 per ounce and is up today. In the news over the past 48 hours, the conversation around gold is led by Bond yields, US dollar, Fed & interest rates.

Bond yields

Paying a coupon on metal is an attempt to remove the opportunity cost that defines this driver.

US dollar

The underlying reference is the international price converted locally, so the currency remains part of the return.

Fed & interest rates

Some governments have issued bonds denominated in metal, paying interest on top of the price itself.

Inflation / CPI

An instrument that tracks the metal and pays a coupon addresses the main objection to holding it.

Record highs

A record raises the redemption value of every unit outstanding, which is a cost to the issuing state.
