Three Buyers, One Price
Gold demand splits fairly evenly across jewellery, investment (bars, coins, ETFs) and central-bank reserves — a mix no other metal on this site has. That's part of why gold tends to hold value when currencies, stocks and industrial metals are all falling at once: at least one of those three buyer groups is usually still buying.
Mined in a Few Places, Wanted Everywhere
China and South Africa built entire mining eras around gold, and Australia and Canada remain top-tier exporters today — but none of that production stays local. Gold moves through Swiss refineries and London vaults before ending up in an Indian wedding box or a central-bank basement half a world from where it was dug up.
Did You Know?
Central banks turned into significant net buyers of gold over the past few years, after decades of mostly selling — a genuine shift in who shows up on the demand side of this market.
