Many people have had similar feelings lately: geopolitical conflicts escalating, risk rising, and by intuition, gold should be the most direct beneficiary. But reality is not always like that.

In the recent round of volatility caused by the U.S.-Iran conflict, you’ll notice an uncomfortable phenomenon—when liquidity begins to tighten, gold is sold as well.

This actually happened in history long ago. In March 2020, when the market entered a liquidity squeeze phase, gold, in an environment where it was supposed to rise the most, instead plunged by 15% quickly.

Why, when risk-off sentiment is at its strongest, doesn’t gold “serve as a safe haven” anymore?

When the market starts deleveraging and replenishing liquidity, what exactly is money selling?

Why is it that many people precisely at this moment experience the biggest drawdown?

In the face of liquidity risk, there is no truly “safe asset.”

In this section, Peifengke Chen Dapeng will combine his own trading post-mortems to explain clearly how to seize the timing and set aside room in advance for “liquidity risk.”
