3 Gold Stocks To Watch This Week
So you want to invest in gold stocks. Where do you even start? There are numerous mining stocks to potentially watch, but gold appears to be the most popular. This has been a recurring theme throughout history. When the US dollar is performing poorly, consumers often shift their money into a physical asset such as gold or silver. So it’s no surprise that when the pandemic started last year, it prompted the greatest gold rally in history.
The world is seeing a massive decline in COVID cases. With that has come minimal restrictions in most states as of the end of 2021. Clubs and bars are open, people are out in the world again, and vaccine numbers are rising. So why is gold still performing well despite this societal recovery? Well, there are major supply chain issues in not just the United States, but the world right now. Chip shortages, late products, ships stuck in the ocean because of full ports, and more are all contributing to major economic obstacles in 2021.
There was a lot of damage done, and it will take a long time to repair everything. As a result, gold is still able to perform well in the market for the time being. Some analysts believe it may even rise in value again. For the time being, let’s take a look at several gold stocks that you might want to keep an eye on this week.
