Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Global gold demand slipped 1% year-on-year to 1,369 tonnes in the third quarter, but central banks capitalized on lower prices to boost reserves, lifting their gold purchases by 42%. The divergence highlights sustained official-sector appetite for bullion even as overall demand softened. Central bank buying at this pace matters because it provides a price floor and signals continued diversification away from reserve currencies. Investors will watch whether official purchases keep accelerating into year-end and whether that offsets weakness in other demand segments.
