GOLD PRICE IN JAPANESE YEN — MAY 17, 2021

On Monday, May 17, 2021, the gold spot price was C$2,261.73 per troy ounce in Canadian Dollars, equivalent to ¥235,898.44 JPY per ounce or ¥7,584.31 JPY per gram. Gold rose +1.13% 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.
