What’s moving gold today

Gold is trading around $4,342.27 per ounce and is up today. In the news over the past 48 hours, the conversation around gold is led by Inflation / CPI, US dollar, Fed & interest rates.

Inflation / CPI

An audit confirms quantity rather than value, and the two are frequently confused in reporting.

US dollar

The audited quantity is converted to dollars for accounts, which is where a fixed tonnage becomes a moving figure.

Fed & interest rates

Reserves are audited by counting and weighing bars, an exercise that takes weeks and ignores what the market is doing.

Bond yields

Audit and storage costs are the running expenses of an asset that produces no income.
