Recently, gold prices have continued to rise. Today (3rd), international gold prices reached a new high. As of 10 o'clock today, the highest international gold price reached 2,288 US dollars per ounce, another record high. Affected by international gold prices, domestic gold retail prices have also increased. Senior gold analyst Li Yang said that the main reason for the rise in gold prices is that since March, market expectations for this kind of interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve have been increasing, which has boosted a rise in gold prices. Furthermore, global geopolitical factors have attracted some capital and further boosted the rise in gold prices. Experts explained that in the past two years, central banks around the world have continued to increase their holdings of gold reserves, which also plays a supporting role in gold prices. (CCTV News)
