Global weakness of gold

The weakness of gold prices and the exit of investments from the precious metal caused indirect investments in gold to be greatly affected, led by the shares of gold and mining companies traded on international stock exchanges, which witnessed large selling operations during the recent period, according to Gold Billion.

Newmont Gold Company is ranked first in the world with gold reserves of 96.1 million ounces in last December’s census. The company’s share price traded on the New York Stock Exchange has declined for five consecutive weeks.

Newmont’s stock fell yesterday, hitting its lowest level since November 2022, thus, the company’s stock fell by 6.2% since the beginning of August.

Also, the S&P GSCI Commodity Index, which acts as a benchmark for investing in commodity markets and as a measure of commodity performance over time, recorded a decline since the beginning of the week by 0.9%, as gold, which is a component of the index, contributed to increasing the negative pressure.

It is worth noting that the index was able to record its highest level since mid-February last week, supported by the rise in crude oil prices, but the strength of the US dollar negatively affected commodity prices in general, pushing the index to decline since the beginning of the week’s trading.
