About this instrument
Gold tracks the front-month GC=F futures contract and compares it with the next contract when available. The carry model includes financing and an estimated storage-and-insurance cost of 0.15% per year.
A higher next-contract price is contango; a lower one is backwardation. The curve describes prices for different delivery dates, not a guaranteed future spot price. See the methodology for the carry model and its limitations.
