Gold falls by 13% despite the war in Iran โ€” the narrative around safe havens is shaken ๐Ÿช™๐Ÿ“‰

Gold surprised the markets with its sharp decline even as geopolitical tensions escalated, challenging its traditional role as a safe haven.

Key facts:

โ€ข Gold has fallen by about 13% since the start of the war in Iran

โ€ข Stocks have fallen less: S&P 500 has decreased by about 7%, Nasdaq by about 8%
