LONDON, 19 September 2016 – US financial news-site MarketWatch today quotes BullionVault analysis in its latest report on gold prices ahead of this week's US Federal Reserve decision on interest rates.
"Even after the first rate increase in years was announced in 2015, gold prices have managed to mark the strongest half-annual gains since the financial crisis broke in 2007," MarketWatch says, quoting analysis posted on BullionVault's GoldNews pages last Friday.
"Behind the noise," says the analysis of three decades' data, "important to note that gold tends to rise more often after the Fed hikes than when it cuts, and by a larger percentage longer-term too."
