Private Investor's Diary

Gold and commodities are becoming a comfort blanket for John Rosier.

After a wonderful summer, markets and portfolios continued to rise, except for interest rates and sterling's value.

Gold Price Surge

The gold price gained 11.5% to $3,826 (£2,872) an oz and subsequently hit $4,000, a 50% increase this year.

Gold Miners' Performance

The L&G Gold Miners ETF (AUCP) is up 127% this year, outperforming gold.

The big question is how far this gold rally will run.

A period of consolidation is likely, but a significant reversal is unlikely in the near future.
