So, the actual GDP increased 2.6 percent annually in the fourth quarter of 2014 according to the "advance" estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, but the forecast stays at 3.0 percent. The gold regained its shine with the expectations of the delay in the US interest rate hike. Ahead of the Chinese Lunar New year on February 19th, we can expect Chinese consumers to acquire gold.
