Influences on precious metal values

Gold prices often move inversely to the strength of the US dollar. A weaker dollar typically supports higher gold prices for investors.

Central banks remain the largest holders of gold reserves. They often buy the metal to diversify assets during economic uncertainty.

Role as a safe haven

Investors view gold as a store of value and inflation hedge. It does not rely on any specific government or issuer.
