The depreciation of the US dollar has a positive effect on gold. However, against other world currencies, the yellow metal had become cheaper.

To add to that, the current fears over the state of the global economy, relative to the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, is favoring gold prices, and this is because the chances of recovering is getting lower as the crisis spreads more and more. This leads to the fact that investors resort to investing in reliable assets, which, traditionally, includes gold.
