Why Gold Is Falling Despite Iran Tensions

from Geopolitics and Markets with Fexingo: Wars, Sanctions, and Economic Consequences · host Fexingo

In this episode of Geopolitics and Markets with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna unpack why gold has dropped 5% in the last five days despite escalating Iran tensions and a weakening dollar. They explore how a rising trade-weighted dollar, rising real yields, and a liquidity crunch from war fears are driving investors away from safe havens. With the S&P 500 at 7,267 and the Dow near 50,000, the hosts question whether gold's traditional role as a geopolitical hedge is breaking down. They also discuss what this means for portfolio construction going forward. #Gold #Geopolitics #Iran #SafeHaven #FederalReserve #RealYields #DollarStrength #TradeWeightedDollar #Liquidity #PortfolioStrategy #Hedging #RiskOff #Commodities #PreciousMetals #CentralBanks #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
