What Global News Does to Gold and Miners

What Global News Does to Gold and Miners

The overall volatility in the markets has played a vital role in determining the directional move for precious metals. Gold and silver rose on Tuesday, April 10, 2018, possibly due to reports of a poison gas attack in Syria and the ongoing trade war fears between China and the United States. The equities market in Asia also lagged on Tuesday, which could have prompted some haven bids for precious metals. Often, gold is known to diverge from the broader stock markets.
