Why is gold declining?

Gold prices are falling on positive news on the vaccine front to combat the Covid-19 epidemic. Experts say that with the improvement in the global economy and easing of tensions between the US and China, investors are turning to the stock market instead of gold. That is why gold prices are not likely to rise sharply in the near future. However, gold is still considered a good investment option for the long term.

Gold glitter has always increased in the hour of trouble!

Gold has always shone brightly in times of trouble. There were many wars in 1979 and gold jumped about 120 per cent that year. Even as recently as 2014, the US threat on Syria was looming, but gold prices were skyrocketing. However, later it came to its old level. The price of gold also rose when US tensions with Iran escalated or when a Sino-US trade war ensued.
