[Analyst: Gold Sell-Off May Trigger Chain Reaction, Some Investors Even Selling Other Assets to Cover Loss Positions]
BlockBeats News, February 6, analyst Jeremy Boulton stated that the sudden drop in gold prices, which quickly spread to other metals, could trigger a chain reaction. Investors may choose to take profits or even sell other fundamentally strong assets to cover loss positions. Currently, there are significant unrealized gains in the market waiting to be realized. Apart from AI-related stocks, the overall stock market remains robust. In the forex market, investors who have invested in high-risk, high-yield currencies during the carry trade boom over the past year have also reaped substantial profits. Although such bets carry high risks, the returns have been extremely lucrative, and the same applies to investments in the stock market and the euro.
When gold prices fall, the EUR/USD exchange rate also declines in tandem, prompting traders to take profits. Although the crowded nature of EUR/USD long positions is not as severe as that of gold, signs of overbought conditions have already emerged during the move above 1.20. As risk aversion intensifies, the previously sold-off U.S. dollar is being repurchased, providing traders with a reason to take profits. (Jin10)
