CNBC: Private Investor Gold Sentiment at 4.5-Year Low

LONDON, 2 July 2014 – The latest Gold Investor Index from BullionVault is highlighted today by leading financial news outlet CNBC as a key measure of sentiment towards the precious metal.

"Sentiment towards gold amongst the investing public," CNBC quotes BullionVault head of research Adrian Ash, "has scarcely been lower since the metal began making headlines during the financial crisis.

"Last month's price jump through $1300 per ounce deterred new buyers and also saw a sharp rise in the number of sellers."

The monthly Gold Investor Index tracks the number of people growing their gold holdings through BullionVault – the world's No.1 physical bullion market online – versus those who reduce.

June's reading of 51.2 was the lowest since February 2010.

BullionVault's latest report is also featured by news and data providers Thomson Reuters as well as Bloomberg, investment news-site TheStreet, professional money-manager site Wealth Briefing (subscription only) and US finance site MoneyNews.
