Global Gold ETFs See Record $18 Billion Inflow in August

World Gold brief based on reporting byWhalesbook
Brief

Reported by Whalesbook: “Global Gold ETFs See Record $18 Billion Inflow in August”. Gold settled at $4,455 an ounce on September 10, 2026 — $143.24 per gram, +0.89% on the day. The headline carries a figure: $18 Billion — quoted as published, not independently verified.

Why it matters

ETF and fund flows indicate whether investment capital is entering gold. Strong inflows may reinforce price momentum, while outflows can weigh on the market despite stable physical demand. 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.
