Dataset of historical annual gold prices from 1970 to 2024, including significant events and acts that impacted gold prices.

The average monthly prices for gold increased worldwide between January 2014 and May 2025, although with some fluctuations. In January 2014, the average monthly price for gold worldwide stood at ******** nominal U.S. dollars per troy ounce. Significant jumps in the gold prices were observed, especially in the periods of uncertainty, as the investors tend to see gold as a safe investment option. For instance, the Corona pandemic acted as a shock to the economy, resulting in substantial increases in gold prices in 2020. As of May 2025, gold valued at ******** U.S. dollars per ounce, the highest value reported during this period.

Analysis of ‘Sentiment Analysis of Commodity News (Gold)’ provided by Analyst-2 (analyst-2.ai), based on source dataset retrieved from https://www.kaggle.com/ankurzing/sentiment-analysis-in-commodity-market-gold on 14 February 2022.

--- Dataset description provided by original source is as follows ---

Context

This is a news dataset for the commodity market where we have manually annotated 11,412 news headlines across multiple dimensions into various classes. The dataset has been sampled from a period of 20+ years (2000-2021).

Content

The dataset has been collected from various news sources and annotated by three human annotators who were subject experts. Each news headline was evaluated on various dimensions, for instance - if a headline is a price related news then what is the direction of price movements it is talking about; whether the news headline is talking about the past or future; whether the news item is talking about asset comparison; etc.

Inspiration

Commodity prices are known to be quite volatile. Machine learning models that understand the commodity news well, will be able to provide an additional input to the short-term and long-term price forecasting models. The dataset will also be useful in creating news-based indicators for commodities.

Apart from researchers and practitioners working in the area of news analytics for commodities, the dataset will also be useful for researchers looking to evaluate their models on classification problems in the context of text-analytics. Some of the classes in the dataset are highly imbalanced and may pose challenges to the machine learning algorithms.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Gold Bar population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Gold Bar across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Gold Bar was 2,411, a 0.46% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Gold Bar population was 2,400, a decline of 0.37% compared to a population of 2,409 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Gold Bar increased by 345. In this period, the peak population was 2,412 in the year 2020. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Historical dataset of the 12 month LIBOR rate back to 1986. The London Interbank Offered Rate is the average interest rate at which leading banks borrow funds from other banks in the London market. LIBOR is the most widely used global "benchmark" or reference rate for short term interest rates.

Open access (OA) can be defined as the practice of providing on-line access to scientific information that is free of charge to the user and that is re-usable. A distinction is usually made between OA to scientific peer reviewed publications and research data. In Horizon 2020 open access to peer-reviewed scientific publications (primarily articles) is mandatory; however, researchers can choose between the open access route most appropriate to them.

For open access publishing (gold open access), researchers can publish in open access journals, or in journals that sell subscriptions and also offer the possibility of making individual articles openly accessible (hybrid journals). In that case, publishers often charge an article processing charge (APC). These costs are eligible for reimbursement during the duration of the Horizon 2020 grant. For APCs incurred after the end of the grant agreement, a mechanism for reimbursing some of these costs is being piloted and implemented through the OpenAIRE project. Note that in case of gold open access publishing, a copy must also be deposited in an open access repository.

For self-archiving (green open access), researchers deposit the final peer-reviewed manuscript in a repository of their choice. In this case, they must ensure open access to the publication within six months of publication (12 months in case of the social sciences and humanities).

This page provides an overview of the state of play as regards the uptake of open access to scientific publications in Horizon 2020 from 2014 to 2017, updating information from 2016.

Two datasets have been used for the analysis presented in this note: one dataset from the EU funded OpenAIRE project for FP7 and H2020 and one dataset from CORDA for H2020, which also provides supplementary information on article processing charges and embargo periods. The datasets are from September and August 2017 respectively.

The OpenAIRE sample includes primarily peer-reviewed scientific articles but also some other forms of publications such as conference papers, book chapters and reports or pre-prints. It is based on information obtained from Open Access repositories, pre-print servers, OA journals and project reports and contains some underreporting since OpenAIRE has difficulties tracking hybrid publications and publications in repositories which are not OpenAIRE compliant. The CORDA sample contains only peer-reviewed scientific articles and is based on project self-reporting. The figures in this note measure open access in a broad sense and not the compliance with the specifics of article 29.2. of the Model Grant Agreement.

The 2017 analysis of open access during the entirety of Horizon 2020 so far shows an overall open access rate of 63,2% from OpenAIRE data (+2,4% compared with the sample from 2016). Internal project reporting through SYGMA shows a total of 80,6% open access for Horizon 2020 scientific peer reviewed articles and 75% for all peer-reviewed publications (including also conference procedures, book chapter, monographs and the like); however, since this data is based on beneficiary self-reporting it may contain some over-reporting.

According to the OpenAIRE sample 75% of publications are green open access and 25% gold open access. Internal figures are similar although they show a slightly higher amount of gold OA with a split of 70% green and 30% gold.

For gold OA internal project reporting suggests than an average of 1500 € is spent per article (median: 1200 €), an increase from the average of 1006 € in the previous sample. A more detailed analysis reveals that 27% percent of articles have a price tag of between 1000 to 1999 €. It is also important to note that 26% of all publications are in gold OA but without any APC charges. Very high APCs of 4000€ or more only concerns a tiny fraction of Horizon 2020 publications (3%).

The average embargo period of green OA publications is 10 months, that is a decrease of 1 month from the 2016 sample. 40% of articles have an embargo period of 11-12 months, followed by 575 articles (or 33% with no embargo period at all. 302 articles, that is 17% have an embargo period of 12,1-24 months and 162 articles or 9% of 0,1 to 6 months. Finally, 12 articles, that is 1%, have an embargo period that is longer than 36 months.

This 2017 analysis thus broadly confirms the earlier findings from summer 2016, but is based on a larger and more robust sample. In the 2017 sample overall open access rates have gone up in all the datasets and cohorts. The distribution between gold and green open access remains similar to the 2016 dataset; for gold OA, average APCs have increased, for green OA embargo periods have slight decreased.
