π‘ Why is Gold Rising?
1. Global Uncertainty: Geopolitical tensions (Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan), economic slowdowns, and war fears drive investors to gold as a βsafe havenβ.
2. Inflation Hedge: Central banks printing money β paper currency value drops β gold becomes more valuable.
3. Weak Canadian Dollar: A weaker CAD makes gold relatively more expensive in Canadian markets.
4. Record Central Bank Buying: Countries like China, India, and Russia are stockpiling gold β pushing prices up globally.
5. Decline in Bond Trust: With real interest rates falling, many are shifting from bonds to bullion.
