Gold takes another hit below $2,410 as VIX lifts above 50

The volatility index is just now rising above 50 and in fact above 53 right now. That is the highest level for the VIX since it peaked above 85 back 2020, as the Coronavirus gripped the world markets and sent stocks spiralling lower. The rise above there today comes as the US equity futures continue to slump and show little appetite to rebound yet. The VIX tracks the implied volatility of the S+P 500, which was the subject of the prior two updates. At the same time both BTC and Gold have taken another hit. Gold has just a moment ago fallen below $2,410 and hence taken out the los seen on Friday and earlier today. Gold is currently trading at $2,404.60
