Why Is Gold Crashing During War? 3 Reasons I'm Buying The Selloff
Gold's recent decline during geopolitical turmoil is a function of liquidity-driven selling, not a failure of its safe-haven status. Gold underperforms during supply-shock inflation and high real yields, as opportunity costs rise and forced liquidations occur. The current selloff is Phase 2 of a historical pattern; explosive gold recovery (Phase 3) typically follows once liquidity stress abates.
