Central banks are the largest holders of Gold, diversifying their reserves to support their currencies in times of economic turbulence. Recently, central banks in emerging economies like China, India, and Turkey have been increasing their Gold reserves.

The price of Gold is influenced by various factors, such as the US Dollar and risk assets. Geopolitical instability and fears of a deep recession can also cause Gold prices to rise due to its status as a safe-haven asset. Gold is currently trading near a six-month high as traders await US inflation data.
