New York City, Houston, Los Angeles and San Francisco were also in the top 10 of destinations. Multiple states, including Florida, have attempted to sue to stop the program but have thus far been unsuccessful. 🤬

Global gold demand stays strong, supporting record-high prices https://www.zawya.com/en/markets/commodities/global-gold-demand-stays-strong-supporting-record-high-prices-dmabcs15 The World Gold Council’s Q1 2024 Gold Demand Trends report reveals that total global gold demand (inclusive of OTC purchases) was up 3% year-on-year to 1,238t, marking the strongest first quarter since 2016.
