Gold values rose more by than $40 per ounce in July to end the month around the $1,970 marker.<\/p>\n<p>During the first seven months of 2023, gold ETFs experienced outflows of $4.9 billion.

Total holdings consequently dropped to 1,480 tonnes, while AUMs sank to $94 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The WGC noted that &#8220;the European Central Bank and the Bank of England lifted their policy rates to multi-decade highs&#8221; last month in response to high inflation.<\/p>\n<p>It added that &#8220;combined with investor expectations of further rate hikes ahead, interest in gold ETFs remained tepid in the region.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But funds in Asia enjoyed inflows during July thanks to strong interest from Japanese investors.<\/p>\n<p>Funds added $132 million worth of metal, equivalent to 2 tonnes. This meant that aggregate holdings rose to 121 tonnes, while AUMs increased to $8 billion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/roystonwild\/2023\/08\/08\/gold-etf-outflows-cooled-during-julyworld-gold-council\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pace of outflows from global gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) slowed in July, data from the World Gold Council (WGC) shows.
