In 2019, the gold market had a relatively stable performance, with prices fluctuating between around $1,200 and $1,500 per ounce. Economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions supported demand for gold as a safe haven, but a more favorable economic outlook and higher interest rates in the United States led to downward pressure on prices. Demand for physical gold, such as coins and bullion, has increased, causing gold prices to rise in 2019, confirming that gold has an increasingly relevant role to play in investors’ portfolios.
