Why gold is getting expensive
There are many major reasons behind the rise in gold prices. Former US President Donald Trump has spoken of imposing heavy taxes on foreign medicines and films, which has increased the concern about trade around the world. In such an environment, investors often choose a safe option and gold finds them the safest. Apart from this, Russia-Ukraine War, the ongoing struggle in West Asia and the increased tension between India and Pakistan are also increasing the demand for gold. Dollar weakness is also a major reason, because when the dollar is weak, investment in gold is considered more beneficial.
