Investopedia explains:
The price of gold has fluctuated dramatically in the 21st century as the economy has stumbled from crisis to crisis. The global recession of 2007-2009 was followed shortly after by the global financial crisis, which sent the value of gold soaring and (for a time) made it the most valuable commodity on earth.
The price of gold has been on an uptrend since May 2015, as the Federal Reserve raised interest rates. The central bank has been raising rates in an effort to bring inflation up to its 2% target. However, gold prices have stalled, despite inflation remaining well below target.
The current price of gold is $1,488.14 per ounce, $17.61 lower for the week.
