In US dollars, gold moved −4.53% over the last seven days to $124.99 per gram. But the same ounce of gold moved differently depending on the currency you hold: South African rand buyers saw the biggest gain (−2.19%) and Saudi riyal buyers the smallest (−4.53%). That is because the local price is the dollar price multiplied by the exchange rate.

Why the numbers differ
Gold is priced worldwide in US dollars. When your currency weakens against the dollar, gold becomes more expensive in your money even if the dollar price is flat — which is why gold is often used to protect savings in countries whose currency is under pressure. These are metal values (spot price × exchange rate); jewellers add making charges, VAT or GST and a margin. See your country's rate, with an estimate of the jeweller's price, on the gold rate by country page.
