Gold’s price fell according to the falling momentum of a commodity closely related to gold, which is oil. Oil dropped sharply on the international market in the context of China’s blockade of many cities to combat the Covid-19 epidemic.

However, oil and gas prices may increase sharply in the near future as Europe strengthens sanctions on Russia and Moscow may also retaliate with measures that cause difficulties back to the European economy. .

Oil prices may also turn to increase when the epidemic situation in China stabilizes in the second half of the year. At that time, gold is forecasted to increase sharply.
