Will April showers bring a May bear market for gold?

April was, overall, a down month for gold. Will the bear continue to reign in the month of May?

So the equity markets are moving up across the globe. Then can the fall of gold be far behind. No! And true to the prediction of market analysts, gold started its hurtling down in April with right earnest.

Gold climbed down, capping the sharpest monthly drop since October, as rising equities and a stronger dollar reduced demand for the precious metal as an alternative investment. Silver also plunged, said market observers.

Gold moved down 3.7 per cent for the month, the most since October and the second straight decline.
