Gold Performance in 2017: Making Sense of the Numbers

Gold Performance in 2017: Making Sense of the Numbers

Gold and gold stocks performed well in 2017. The gold price advanced $150.78 per ounce (13.1%), the GDMNTR was up 12.2%, and the MVGDXJTR gained 6.2%. Gold also did not receive much help from the physical markets, as Indian demand remained near the lows of 2016 and China’s central bank refrained from purchasing gold.
