\n Gold pushed above $1,800 an ounce on Wednesday for the first time since 2011, with analysts expecting further gains as investors stock up on an asset they expect to hold its value while the coronavirus convulses the economy.<\/p>\n

Spot gold prices have surged 40 percent in the last 14 months and are within striking distance of 2011\u2019s record high of $1,920.30 an ounce.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll be challenging the $2,000 level by the end of the year,\u201d said Ross Norman, an independent analyst. \u201cWe are in a bull market for gold.\u201d<\/p>\n

Powering the rally is economic and political uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and action by central banks, which have responded to slowing growth and the virus by slashing interest rates and flooding markets with cash.<\/p>\n

This has fueled fears of inflation, which would typically devalue other assets, and has also lowered returns on government bonds, making gold more attractive.<\/p>\n

Gold\u2019s rise has been mirrored by a slide in real yields on 10-year US bonds, which at around minus 0.8% are near record lows.<\/p>\n

Financial investors, mainly in Europe and the US, have been on an unprecedented buying spree.<\/p>\n

Exchange-traded funds storing gold on behalf of these investors added 734 tons of gold worth $39.5 billion to their stockpile in first half of the year \u2013 more than in any previous full year and nearly half of all the gold mined during the period, according to the World Gold Council.<\/p>\n

\u201cWestern investment has been the key factor supporting prices (and) there\u2019s no reason for that to stop,\u201d said StoneX analyst Rhona O\u2019Connell.<\/p>\n

This surge in purchases has offset a collapse in demand for gold in China and India, traditionally the largest buyers, where the bulk of gold is sold as jewelery.<\/p>\n

A recovery in economic growth could lift jewelery sales but also cause investors to buy less, pushing prices lower, said Julius Baer analyst Carsten Menke.<\/p>\n

HSBC said in a note it expected gold to average $1,743 an ounce this year but to fall to about $1,500 in the coming years.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
