While all commodities tend to benefit from rising inflation, gold tends to outperform during periods of declining interest rates and bond yields. This reflects the declining opportunity cost of holding gold as well as the tendency for falling bond yields to reflect weak economic growth which is bad news for industrial commodities.”
