Gold Holds Above $4,000 at $4,009.41 an Ounce After Brief Breakout

3 articles · Updated · CNBC · Jun 27

Summary

  • $4,009.41 per ounce was gold’s spot price at 9:00 a.m. ET on June 25, up from $3,975.19 at the same time a day earlier.
  • That move kept bullion above the $4,000 threshold after it briefly broke through earlier, extending demand for the metal as a traditional safe-haven and inflation hedge.
  • CNBC said investors can gain exposure through physical bullion or coins, gold IRAs, or gold ETFs, each with different trade-offs on storage, liquidity, fees and income generation.
  • The latest price follows an earlier surge above $4,000 after U.S. weekly jobless claims came in at 215,000, below the 225,000 forecast.
