In the last three months, gold has attracted huge attention from big institutions and savvy investors alike. Experts say that gold prices move in a nine-year cycle of upward and downward movement when seen in a historical context. An opinion that has gained currency among commodity analysts is that gold has entered the next nine-year cycle of upward movement.

There are a few fundamental reasons which support this line of thought. This looks more certain when one takes into account an investment horizon of two to three years.

To deal with the fluctuation in the US dollar, a few central banks (Poland, China and Russia) are buying gold as a safe haven. Consequently, in the past three months, gold prices have risen to close at Rs 38,775 for 10 grams.

Experts believe that the tariff war between the US and China may prolong which may keep gold prices firm in the near term. Two, low interest rates of central banks of developed markets make investments in gold safer than the US treasury bonds. Three, in times of economic slowdown, signs of which are visible, the attractiveness of tangible assets such as gold increases.
