Article Synopsis
Gold futures climbed back above the $5,000 per ounce level on Monday, supported by global economic uncertainty and political developments overseas, including Japan’s election and shifts in China’s holdings of U.S. debt, which weighed on the U.S. dollar. Silver futures also rallied strongly alongside gold as investors sought safe-haven assets amid volatile market conditions.
