Gold price history for 2020.

Gold was one of the best performing major assets of 2020 thanks to a combination of: High economic risk, Low interest rates and positive price dynamics – especially in late spring and summer. 

Gold also saw one of the smallest declines over the year, helping investors limit losses and manage volatility risk in their portfolios. In early August, the ounce of gold in London reached an all-time high of US$2,067.15 /oz, as well as in all other major currencies. While the price of gold subsequently consolidated below its intra-year high, it remained comfortably above US$1,850/oz, ending the year at US$1,887.60. /oz.

Interestingly, gold price performance in the second half of the year appears to be more related to demand for physical investment – ​​whether in the form of gold ETFs or bars and coins – rather than via the more speculative futures market. Investor preference for physical commodities confirms that gold has been used by many as an asset.
