Gold’s haven appeal burnished by drumbeat of growth warnings

admin
Gold could be heading for another rally, with warnings over a global economic slowdown paving the way for a fresh push toward $2 000/oz. A potent mix of decades-high inflation, geopolitical turmoil and growing talk of recession should be bullish for the traditional haven, according to speakers interviewed ahead of a precious metals conference in Singapore this week. Bullion is down about 10% from a peak in mid-March, after the concerns that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine might sprawl into a broader conflict dissipated. But with top banking executives now warning… Read More Here

Congo’s Oil Block Sale Threatens Carbon Sinks, Forest Pact

admin
The Democratic Republic of Congo’s plan to auction oil exploration blocks next month threatens to disrupt some of the world’s most important carbon sinks and could jeopardize a $500 million forest preservation agreement. Some of the blocks, estimated to contain 16 billion barrels of crude reserves, overlap with the biggest tropical peatlands that cover 145,000 square kilometers (56,000 square miles) and store about 30 billion tons of carbon — equivalent to about 82% of annual global carbon dioxide emissions. So-called carbon sinks help mitigate greenhouse-gas emissions from burning fossil fuels and… Read More Here

Gold price may be set to rise – but so are risks for miners

admin
Amid the frenzied analyses of supply, demand and spiking prices for green metals and critical minerals, another metal may be preparing to steal the spotlight: gold.  While the price of gold spiked earlier this year to $2,068 per oz. (just shy of its August 2020 all-time high) on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it hasn’t stayed at those elevated levels. At press time Wednesday, the yellow metal was at a relatively modest $1,850 per oz., just a touch above where it began the year at $1,827.50 per oz.  However, persistent inflation,… Read More Here
