The current stagflation indicators and global economic fears should send gold prices soaring but they aren’t. There’s a multitude of factors at play that is keeping gold’s growth to a minimum.

Risk appetite worldwide has grown massively with investors moving towards higher yielding assets and bonds. Interest rates and yields increased for US Treasuries which has moved a massive amount of cash from the non-yielding Gold market to the bond market.

The US Dollar has been gaining strength. In the last 3 months, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has increased 2.05% from 91.86 to 93.75, posing as obstacle for the dollar denominated gold.

All eyes are on the US Q3 GDP report which is due to release Thursday. Following the results, there might be a volatile trading session which investors should be wary about. This report might also help investors better guess when asset purchases will start to decline and consequently when interest hikes will start appearing.
