GOLD PRICE IN JAPANESE YEN — JANUARY 8, 2018

On Monday, January 8, 2018, the gold spot price was C$1,634.17 per troy ounce in Canadian Dollars, equivalent to ¥170,443.93 JPY per ounce or ¥5,479.90 JPY per gram. Gold fell -0.90% 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.
