Trade disputes and political instability are examples of geopolitical tensions that can breed anxiety and push investors towards safe-haven assets like gold.
Gold prices have fluctuated significantly in recent years, hitting record highs and influencing investing trends.Additionally, geopolitical developments have a significant influence on gold prices, which in turn affects investment patterns.
The term “geopolitical risk” is often used to describe the possibility that the acts or policies of one country could impact or disrupt the domestic political, social, or economic policies of another country or region. The growth of gold as a result of geopolitical unrest is not, however, certain. The effect of geopolitical events on gold prices is often transient and disappears after a short while.The connection between geopolitics and gold is more complex than it appears, and there are three key reasons why geopolitical worries do not impact gold as much as people think.
Since there is typically a flight to safety into the U.S., geopolitical events like terrorist acts that happen outside America don’t normally affect the gold market or even put downward pressure on gold.
