By the ounce

At the time of writing on Wednesday, the price of gold was US$3,616.40, up from US$3,424.20 per ounce in our August 27th report – according to data from The Globe and Mail – driven by growing expectations of a rate cut in September from the U.S. Federal Reserve, coupled with a steep rise in central bank buying, with non-U.S. central banks owning more gold than U.S. Treasuries within their international reserves for the first time since 1996.
