Will the price of gold rise? According to the latest data from the Bank of China, the official gold reserve of China at the end of November 2024 was 72.96 million ounces, an increase of 160,000 ounces (about 4.54 tons) compared with the end of October, which means that the People's Bank of China increased its holdings of gold for the first time in half a year. Why did the central bank buy gold again after half a year? What is the trend of the subsequent gold price?

In this context, increasing gold holdings will help to enhance the security of China's reserve assets. . The market generally believes that the resumption of gold purchase by the Bank of China resonates with the global interest rate cut cycle, and the increase in holdings is significantly higher than the level of the last gold purchase before the suspension, which not only strongly supports the gold price, but also greatly boosts the market's confidence in the market outlook.
