Котировки золота обновили восьмимесячный минимум, опустившись к $4000 за унцию на спот-рынке. Относительно исторического максимума, установленного в конце января, металл подешевел на 27%, а с начала лета — более чем на 10%. Обвал вызван сочетанием факторов, среди которых — продолжение войны на Ближнем Востоке и ужесточение риторики ФРС США. В таких условиях в ближайшее время ценам будет сложно отойти от достигнутого уровня. К концу года аналитики допускают возвращения котировок в диапазон $4500–4800 за унцию за счет высокого спроса со стороны центробанков развивающихся стран.

У золота есть проблема: инвесторы почти всегда вспоминают о нем слишком поздно. Когда геополитика спокойна, фондовые индексы обновляют максимумы, а ставки дают привлекательную доходность, золото кажется скучным активом без купонов и дивидендов. Когда начинается кризис, его начинают покупать «для защиты», часто уже после вертикального роста цены. Именно поэтому нынешняя коррекция — это хороший повод не столько спорить о ближайшей цели котировок, сколько заново ответить на более практический вопрос: зачем вообще частному инвестору золото?

Kyiv to ramp up attacks; Russian gasoline production drops after drone strikes; Fedorov joins Italy’s defence ministry. What we know on day 1,648⁠Volodymyr Zelenskyy said ⁠​he has ⁠ordered his military to increase its ⁠long-range ​drone ‌strikes ‌against Russia to ‌1,000 per day, up from about 300 currently. “There ‌needs to be more: ​there is a concrete goal, ⁠and we will fulfil ​this ​task,” the Ukrainian president ​declared ​on Friday in ‌his ​evening address.Russia’s ⁠gasoline production fell ​to about 70% of domestic consumption levels by the end of August after a series of drone attacks forced major refineries to suspend operations, according to two ⁠industry sources who spoke to Reuters. After a brief respite at the end of July, when some local authorities ​began easing or lifting restrictions on fuel sales, shortages ‌returned to Russian regions in ‌August. Over the past week, drones ‌struck and halted operations at several major refineries, including plants in Perm, Nizhny Novgorod and Yaroslavl, all significant producers of motor gasoline.Russia is losing about 6,000 more troops in Ukraine each month than it can recruit, western officials have said.

Both countries have stepped up strikes in recent weeks on economic targets such as major retailers, with Russia targeting warehouses for ⁠Ukraine’s premier supermarket chains, ⁠top postal service and home-goods ​stores. “As of today, roughly speaking, 90% of food logistics operated by retail chains have been destroyed, but that doesn’t mean Ukrainians will be left without food,” farm minister Taras Vysotskyi was cited by ⁠the Ukrinform agency as saying.

The International ​Atomic ‌Energy Agency said a drone attack ‌on 25 August reportedly occurred near the plant’s cooling pond, injuring two plant employees, ‌while two other drones on 26 August ​reportedly struck the site’s dry spent nuclear fuel storage area ⁠and the sprinkling ​device of ​the power ​units system.
