radex78 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Global world news is always interesting for forex traders and investors to pay attention to. Not long ago the world was shaken by the COVID pandemic, then news of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and recently the Hamas vs Israel war which killed more than 21,000 civilians, and it seems that the escalation of the war could spread. Recently the Houthi group provided support to Hamas by attacking affiliated Israel cargo ships in the Red Sea. War always results in casualties and damage to infrastructure and costs a lot of money. As investors, of course, they will think about how to save their assets from the possibilities that occur as a result of war. So many investors are looking for safe havens, assets considered safe and unaffected by the impact of geopolitical tensions. One very popular safe haven asset is gold. Will gold be investors' choice as a safe haven asset amidst the current turmoil of geopolitical tensions? Usually, the price of gold is closely related to the value of the USD, when the USD weakens then gold often strengthens, conversely when the USD strengthens the price of gold decreases. To learn about the role of geopolitical risk in forex trading, we can read a good article on the FXOpen blog, a complete discussion about geopolitical risk can broaden the insight of traders and investors. At present gold traded at 2063.68 based gold chart on Ticktrader, and the highest price record at 2135 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
