World Investment (which includes the implied figure, bar hoarding and all coins) nearly doubled in 2022 to over 1,900 tonnes and reached an approximate value of $60 billion. The first few months of 2022 saw a record level of investment demand. Fears about financial stability and economic depression triggered a wave of safe haven buying, particularly in the forms of gold ETFs and physical bullion products. ? After a summer lull, investor activity, especially in the OTC and futures markets, picked up strongly from September onwards, primarily driven by a weaker dollar, higher price expectations and growing concerns regarding future trends in inflation. This surge in investment demand drove prices above $1,200, before a loss of momentum and some profit taking brought about a price correction in the final weeks of 2022.

Supply expected to rise fairly strongly in 2022, with growth in mine production, and, from a very low base, official sector sales, the latter also expected to be concentrated in the second half. Scrap supply has fallen yeartodate but should recover in the latter part of 2022 basis higher price conditions. These will also mean that there is only a moderate recovery in fabrication demand for the calendar year as a whole. ? Imbalances in the market suggest that at some point the gold price will have to retreat. Nevertheless, this is most unlikely to occur on a secular basis in 2022 and potentially not until well into 2022 given current economic conditions, which in an underlying sense still favour gold investment.
