GOLD PRICE IN JAPANESE YEN — MAY 11, 2017

On Thursday, May 11, 2017, the gold spot price was C$1,676.41 per troy ounce in Canadian Dollars, equivalent to ¥174,849.56 JPY per ounce or ¥5,621.54 JPY per gram. Gold rose +0.47% from the previous trading session.

Currency fluctuations between CAD and JPY significantly impact the effective cost of gold for international investors. Japan is the world's third-largest economy and a significant gold consumer, particularly for jewelry and industrial applications. The Bank of Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy has historically supported higher gold prices in Yen terms, making Japan an active gold market for both institutional and retail investors.
