As the conflict in Ukraine continues to fuel global and economic uncertainty, it may be a good time for you to sell scrap gold<\/a> that you may have collecting dust at home.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conflict in Ukraine is showing no signs of easing. According to UN figures, the number of refugees recently surpassed the 2 million mark. It is this level of human suffering and political turmoil that epitomises the kind of uncertainty that pushes up the price of gold.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep reading to learn why now may be a great time to sell your scrap gold.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why the war in Ukraine is causing the gold price to rise<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Economic uncertainty centred around global supply chains and inflation, combined with the shocking events in Ukraine during the last week of February, pushed up the Gold price by approximately 8 per cent in February. President Vladimir Putin is now being accused of war crimes by individual governments. In particular Germany\u2019s federal prosecutor has initiated this path, exploring the incidents relating to this accusation. In response to all this volatility, gold prices are continuing to rise. The price of scrap gold changes daily in accordance with the live spot gold price in the UK, and as of 10th March, gold was trading around \u00a31,517 per troy ounce. The National Association of Jewellers even mentioned that some analysts believe gold prices can go higher in the coming weeks depending on how events unravel.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Golden markets open up for sellers<\/strong>\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As well as gold, the price of energy is also being affected as the political situation unravels. European gas prices rose by a third after Russia threatened it would stop supplies following western sanctions imposed by Europe over the invasion. Russia\u2019s attack on Europe’s largest nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia, southeastern Ukraine, has also fuelled concerns surrounding a potential nuclear catastrophe. Incidentally, Ukraine\u2019s foreign minister said an explosion would be \u2018ten times worse than Chernobyl\u2019. This disaster has had a substantial effect on gold prices. After the attack on the nuclear plant, the gold price rose drastically and reached a six-day high at just above \u00a31,479.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
