TrackInsight: Investors pile into Gold ETFs

Since the start of the year, the cumulative flow from the primary market into Gold ETFs has followed a steady upward trajectory.

Since the start of the year, the cumulative flow from the primary market into Gold ETFs has followed a steady upward trajectory. Yesterday’s net inflow of almost $ 500 million has just confirmed this long-term trend, pushing the segment’ inflow in 2020 to $ 35,9 Bn. The influx of money into Gold ETFs comes with the precious metal reaching its highest level in nearly nine years. On average, Gold ETFs won 18,61% year-to-date, thanks to strong investors’ demand during the coronavirus pandemic. This momentum is likely to continue during the second half of the year in a context of uncertainty related to the real economic impact of the coronavirus crisis, to the upcoming presidential election in the US and geopolitical risks. The Gold ETF segment on TrackInsight represents $ 180,3 Bn of assets under management.
