April 2026 marks a&nbsp;major milestone in&nbsp;modern space exploration – the Artemis&nbsp;II mission, the first crewed journey around the Moon in&nbsp;more than 50&nbsp;years. Following its launch from the Kennedy Space Center in&nbsp;Florida on 1&nbsp;April, the Orion spacecraft carried four astronauts (Reid&nbsp;Wiseman, Christina&nbsp;Koch, Victor&nbsp;Glover, and Jeremy&nbsp;Hansen) on a&nbsp;trajectory designed to&nbsp;test both technology and human capability in&nbsp;the transition to deep space and in&nbsp;the return to Earth. Artemis&nbsp;II is a&nbsp;crucial step in&nbsp;preparations for future lunar landings and a&nbsp;sustained human presence on the Moon.

In&nbsp;March, there was an&nbsp;unexpected turn in&nbsp;the&nbsp;markets. Many investors expected gold to rise&nbsp;– particularly amid global tensions and&nbsp;higher energy prices. Instead, the&nbsp;opposite happened.

March 2026: why did gold fall in&nbsp;the&nbsp;ace of&nbsp;rising global tensions?

The conflict in&nbsp;Iran is pushing up oil and energy prices, creating inflationary pressures. Central banks are responding by&nbsp;raising interest rates. Higher rates increase the appeal of US bonds and strengthen the US dollar, which in&nbsp;the short term puts downward pressure on&nbsp;gold prices.

The current fall in gold prices may seem illogical, but is actually easy to explain

In recent weeks, we have seen movements in&nbsp;the gold market that may, at&nbsp;first glance, look worrying. The gold price has fallen by up to around 27% from its peak levels. For many investors, this kind of&nbsp;correction is cause for concern, but when viewed in a&nbsp;wider context, it starts to&nbsp;make more sense.
