What is the correlation between Gold and USD?

I notice Gold and USD seem to move in opposite directions. Is this always the case?

Gold is priced in USD, so generally an inverse correlation exists. When USD strengthens, Gold gets more expensive for foreign buyers → price falls. This correlation holds roughly 70-80% of the time.

The correlation breaks during geopolitical events when both Gold and USD strengthen simultaneously as safe havens. Always confirm with current price action rather than assuming the inverse relationship.
