Given their scarcity and widespread demand, precious metals and industrial metals are valued highly across the world. The price dynamics of these metals are often influenced by the overall performance of the global economy, making them an attractive option for trading.
Precious metals serve as a valuable financial tool for diversifying investment portfolios and mitigating risks during economic downturns or periods of inflation. Gold, in particular, is often regarded as a "safe haven" due to its innate value that is relatively resilient to the devaluation of the economy. During times of economic recession or political turmoil, there is a tendency for investors to take long positions on gold as a means of safeguarding their investments.
