Global physically backed gold exchange-traded funds registered outflows in November after six consecutive months of inflows as Europe-listed funds reduced their holdings, the World Gold Council said on Thursday.
Gold ETFs store bullion for investors and account for a significant amount of investment demand for the precious metal, which is down 5% since hitting a record high of $2,790.15 an ounce on Oct. 31. Gold ETFs registered outflows of 28.6 metric tons, or $2.1 billion, in November to reduce collective holdings to 3,215 tons, the WGC, industry body grouping global gold miners, said in a research note.
These outflows turned the year-to-date’s demand for the ETFs to negative, and set them back on track for the fourth consecutive year of outflows, according to the data.
