Gold Futures Contract
Gold futures are among the most widely traded futures products worldwide. Although Gold futures are contracts for physically-deliverable commodities, these products are also critical tools for diversifying portfolios and mitigating risk. Traditionally, gold has been seen as a “safe haven” in times of global economic or political uncertainty, and as such, prices may often move inverse to the U.S. dollar, treasury bonds, and U.S. stock indexes.
