LONDON, 1 November 2016 – BullionVault's latest Gold Investor Index features today on Portfolio Adviser, the specialist news and views website for financial professionals.
This unique sentiment gauge "measures whether private investors are starting or growing their gold holdings, or reducing them," PA explains.
While a reading of 50.0 would signal an equal number of net buyers and sellers across the month, the index rose from 55.0 in September to 56.8 in October, beating August's 3-year peak at 56.0 after the UK's Brexit shock.
"The sharpest monthly drop in almost a year saw the number of gold buyers across the month rise by more than a third, while the number of sellers fell 16% compared to September," PA goes on.
BullionVault's Silver Investor Index also rose last month, jumping from 52.9 to 57.2 as the cheaper metal also fell back in price.
