    ......... a year ago gold fixed at £942, and was £987 yesterday. It's recent high was £999
    5 years back the high was £792, and 10 years back it was £610..._
    Still nothing to explain why the gold price is holding at the price it is. But the year isn't over.
    A year ago today it was £974 an ounce, £1029 last Friday, which was also it's recent high. Ten years back it was ££600, and five years back it was £744..._
