Why is risk aversion at an all-time high recently? Gold is typically seen as a “safe haven” asset in times of uncertainty, why is risk aversion at an all-time high recently? Since the end of 2021, the FED has said it is ready to tighten monetary policy, and this Wednesday, the FED will hold a crucial policy meeting that economists expect will signal a rate hike starting in March. Gold’s appeal may be dampened, but falling stocks, U.S.-Russian tensions, and a rout in Bitcoin have boosted safe-haven demand. U.S. stocks fell across the board on Monday, with U.S. stocks on track for their biggest monthly drop since March 2020. Only the U.S. dollar, gold, and U.S. Treasuries rose on safe-haven demand.3. Gold's perform outlook by World Gold Council It’s been two years since the start of the pandemic and the world seems ready to move on: global stock markets have strongly rebounded from their 2020 lows. Regarding the performance expectations for gold in 2022, the World Gold Council pointed out: While rate hikes can create headwinds for gold, history shows their effect may be limited. At the same time, elevated inflation and market pullbacks will likely sustain demand for gold as a hedge. Jewelry and central bank gold demand may provide additional longer-term support.

Gold’s behavior will depend on which factors tip the scale Gold will likely face two key headwinds during 2022: higher nominal interest rates a potentially stronger dollar. However, the negative effect from these two drivers may be offset by other supporting factors, including: high, persistent inflation market volatility linked to COVID, geopolitics, etc. robust demand from other sectors such as central banks and jewellery.
