Gold got a strong bump up this year (driven by central bank buying), now pulled back a bit. Central banks are continuing to buy, but we haven't seen a lot of interest in gold from investors yet. Gold could pick up, some hot money could start to move in at some point in 2025. Gold will probably have another good year next year. Interest rates coming down would help gold move higher. Strong seasonal period from December into January/February.
