This week, the prices of precious metals remained in quite similar positions, the changes are not significant. Usfunds.com says that gold and copper are currently leading the bullion market, with values rising rapidly this year and looking set to continue. In general, experts believe that the current period will be quite stable for many metals, we will see more pronounced changes in the prices of those metals that are already in high positions (source: Metalsdaily.com).
The price of gold has fallen minimally. It is currently trading at $2,326.82 an ounce. Perthmint.com says that for now the yellow metal is breaking its price records and could increase its value even more in the summer. However, experts believe that it is still necessary to monitor market changes. Cityindex.com says that for some time the price of gold may stagnate and stop growing. At the moment, the growth of the gold price is greatly influenced by both China's rapid increase in metal reserves and central banks' investment in this metal, but if at least one of them stops investing in gold, then the increase in its value will slow down (sources: Jingdaily.com, Heraeus.com). It is worth watching the developments in the Chinese market to see if it slows down.
 

Precious metal prices fluctuate this week. The values of some remain constant, while others fall slightly, and, for example, copper has increased strongly. Uk.finance.yahoo.com says that there are a number of factors influencing metal price movements, but the weakening of the US dollar this week has had an immediate impact on the value of some metals. Recent developments are indeed worthy of further monitoring.
The price of gold remains stable. It is currently trading at $2,333.75 an ounce. Gold.org says that demand for the metal was up significantly in the first quarter of this year, with mining activity up by 4%. Experts say that the large Chinese investments in this metal and the very fact that the metal is a reliable investment in difficult times have contributed to the increased demand for gold - this has been taken into account by many investors (sources: Scmp.com, Am.lombardodier.com). India's demand for gold rose by 8% last month (source: Indianexpress.com). Some investors sell gold during this period, they want to make money. Others, on the contrary, increase its reserves. We will see in the course of the year which strategy is more favourable in this period.
