Gold is normally considered a safe-haven asset and a store of wealth in times of financial stress and uncertainty. So, why the surge in demand?

The U.S. and Europe are both expanding and emerging market growth is set to top 5% this year. One theory is the weakness of the U.S. dollar — as the dollar falls, all commodities priced in the currency become relatively cheaper and therefore more attractive to buyers in other currencies.

To what extent the aforementioned has supported the recent run-up in gold prices is almost impossible to tell, but the cryptocurrency’s near vertical price rise in recent months cannot be wholly unattached to gold’s run-up over recent weeks.
