Gold trading volumes continue to rise

In November, this amounted to an average of $290 billion. Despite a decline in the gold price, this still represents an 8% increase compared to October. The main drivers were the futures trading volumes on the COMEX and the Shanghai Futures Exchange. Additionally, global gold ETF volumes rose significantly. North America led the growth, while global OTC gold trading (over-the-counter trading) saw a decline compared to the previous month. The weak gold price may have negatively impacted gold futures trading. Overall, however, global gold ETF inflows have remained positive in 2024. Notably, Indian gold ETFs recorded inflows for the eighth consecutive month in November, signaling a positive outlook for gold in India. Meanwhile, ETF demand in Europe has remained low for months.

Investing in the gold mining sector can be done through ETFs, offering the opportunity to invest without selecting individual gold mining stocks. Royalty companies present a particularly excellent investment opportunity. They allow for broad diversification and come with unique advantages. Mining risks are borne by their partner companies. Factors like rising labor and energy costs or budget overruns do not directly impact royalty companies. Unlike miners, royalty companies do not extract gold themselves or operate mines—they provide funding to mining operators. Well-positioned royalty companies with highly diversified portfolios include Osisko Gold Royalties and Gold Royalty.
