Gold Plummets on Vaccine News

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA
On Monday, the price for the yellow metal plummeted more than 100 USD per ounce or 5.53%.

The drop was caused by news from a public company. Pfizer announced that its Covid-19 vaccine was effective in more than 90% of cases in a large scale study.

This event caused a risk on sentiment. Safe haven assets like the Japanese Yen and Gold plummeted in price. Meanwhile, stock indices reached new record high levels, as a revival of the economy was expected.
