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 30-Year Fixed Mortgage Back Near 7%: Mortgage Interest Rates Today for March 25, 2024 READ MORE Workers’ paychecks grew faster in the first quarter, a possible concern for the Fed READ MORE Market Tremors: NY Community Bancorp's Record Drop Highlights Commercial Real Estate Concerns READ MORE Jamie Dimon Sees ‘Lot of Inflationary Forces in Front of Us’ READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
