Gold prices started dropping since early 2019, which in turn, caused the Australian Stock Exchange-listed miner- Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) to correspond with the prices. The gold prices plunged from the level of US$1346.79 (Dayâs high on 20th February 2019) to the US$1280.93 (Dayâs low on 7th March 2019) initially.
The factor which contributed significantly to the fall was the progressive trade-talks between the two significant economies of the world, i.e., the United States and China. The trade-talks raised optimism among market participants over the improvement in the global economic conditions, which as per the latest report from the International Monetary Fund, is deteriorating. The progressive trade talks contributed towards an improvement in the global economic figures, which in turn exerted pressure on gold prices.

After the initial drop in gold prices to the level of US$1280.93, the prices started recovering amid global cues such as Eurozone crisis, falling of long-term bond yield below short-term yield, and failure of U.S-North Korea summit, etc.
