What’s Really Driving China’s 22-Month Gold Buying Spree at Record Prices
Reported by NAI500: “What’s Really Driving China’s 22-Month Gold Buying Spree at Record Prices”. Gold settled at $4,407 an ounce on September 10, 2026 — $141.70 per gram, -1.20% on the day. The story touches China: we track local prices and customs flows for those.
The development may change short-term gold-price expectations. Confirmation requires comparing the headline with COMEX, the dollar, yields and trading volume. Checked against our data: the trailing twelve-month high is $5,318 (January 29, 2026), so that day's settlement was not a record. The headline may refer to another market — spot, a local currency — or to an intraday print. Thirty sessions later gold traded at $4,060 an ounce, -7.87% versus the date of the report. That is an observation about the market, not a consequence of one headline.
