Are gold spot prices Universal?

Gold spot prices are universal, as most gold markets use live gold prices listed in U.S. dollars, so the price of gold per ounce is the same worldwide. The gold spot price is typically listed in troy ounces, but it can be converted into any unit of measure you want to buy or sell.

How is gold price determined?

The price is determined by converting the current spot gold price for an ounce or gram of gold into the country"s currency. For example, the current spot gold price for 1 gram of gold would be converted into Indian Rupees according to the current exchange rate.

Why do gold prices go up?

Gold prices are historically far more stable over the course of time than economies and other classes of investments. Supply and demand, of course, also play a key role in the price of gold per gram or ounce. There is only so much gold to be mined and gold mining is not cheap. When gold demand outstrips gold supply, the price of gold goes up.
