Demand for the greenback finally receded this past week, leading to a nice recovery in gold prices. Spot traded as high as $1,643.90 a troy ounce, level reaching on Thursday. Things keep moving fast, although not faster than the coronavirus spread. The number of total global cases has largely surpassed 500,000, while the number of cases in the US is now above those in China. The death toll continues to increase, particularly in Italy and Spain, the countries most hit by the pandemic. The UK comes behind as even UK PM Boris Johnson and Prince Charles got infected.
Beyond decreasing interest for the greenback, gold got backed by delivery issues tied to the operations shutdowns taking place all over the globe, leading to a shortage of physical gold supplies.
