What is the rise in gold prices?
1, affected by the trend of the US dollar. Generally speaking, the trend of the dollar is negatively correlated with the price of gold, that is, the dollar is stronger, the gold is weaker, the dollar is weaker, and the gold is stronger. This is because gold is generally priced in dollars internationally, and the depreciation of the dollar will improve the ability of other currencies to buy gold, thus stimulating the demand for gold. For example, when the Federal Reserve adopts a loose monetary policy, it will lead to a decline in the dollar index, which will lead to an increase in the price of gold.
2. Affected by inflation expectations. Inflation expectation refers to the market's forecast of the future price level. Rising inflation expectations will increase the demand for gold, because gold is considered to be an effective asset to hedge against inflation. When the economic development is overheated, the market is worried that this will lead to increased inflationary pressure in the future and push up the price of gold.
3. Geopolitical risks. Geopolitical risk refers to the market uncertainty caused by international tensions or war conflicts. The rise of geopolitical risks will increase the safe-haven demand of gold and push the price of gold up.
