Gold Price | Live Chart & Performance | News
Gold price (COMEX future, USD/oz).
Gold is driven above all by real bond yields, the US dollar and inflation expectations. As a non-yielding store of value, it tends to benefit when real rates fall, geopolitical uncertainty rises and central banks step up their buying.
