The downward trend in oil prices and the growth of more than 4% of gold last week.
The global oil and gold markets fluctuated last week under the influence of geopolitical developments in the Middle East, fears of oil supply disruptions, political developments in the US and expectations regarding the monetary policy of the "Federal Reserve" (Central Bank of the United States); so the price of "Brent" oil fell by more than 16%, but despite the decline of the last day of the week, gold registered a growth of more than four percent.
