Gold recovery still
continuing

THE Asian economic and currency crisis kept gold
demand below normal levels in several countries, but
overall global demand continued to recover in the third
quarter of this year from the poor start to the year, the
World Gold Council said yesterday.

It said the total gold demand in the countries it monitored
was 676 tons, just 1% below the record achieved in the
third quarter of last year.

The good statistics were the result of a steady
performance by jewellery and a surge in investment,
especially in the US, where coin sales rose to
near-record levels.

"The most significant development in the third quarter
was a continued increase in the demand for gold as an
investment," the council said.

"All over the world investors are looking for ways to
preserve their wealth and increasingly those investors are
starting to turn to gold.

"The outlook is for the recovery to continue over the
remainder of the year."

The council said the market was running into what was
traditionally the strongest period of the year for demand.
