Gold Steady Near $4,400: U.S. ETF Outflows vs. Record Central Bank Buying | Analysis - News and Statistics
Reported by IndexBox: “Gold Steady Near $4,400: U.S. ETF Outflows vs. Record Central Bank Buying | Analysis - News and Statistics”. Gold settled at $4,380 an ounce on August 14, 2026 — $140.83 per gram, +0.38% on the day. The headline carries a figure: $4,400 — quoted as published, not independently verified. The story touches the United States: we track local prices and customs flows for those.
Official-sector buying or selling changes physical demand and long-term market expectations. Persistent purchases can support the market, but do not guarantee an immediate price increase. 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.
