title The Value of Gold: Hedge, Haven, or Hell for the U.S. Economy?
abstract Does gold act as a hedge, safe haven, or neither to the U.S. Economy? Two separate regression models are used in order to draw the conclusions found in this essay. For the purposes of this essay, a hedge will be defined as an asset that moves inversely to another asset on average, whereas a safe-haven is an asset that moves to another asset during times of economic stress alone. This essay concludes that gold acts as a weak hedge towards the U.S. economy as a whole.
