Politics and science combined to wipe $225 an ounce off the price of gold in three weeks thanks to war zone peace talks and an experiment in making gold.

The article from Forbes, published on May 12, 2025, discusses the factors contributing to a significant decline in gold prices, described as a "double whammy" of political and scientific developments.

On the scientific front, a breakthrough in quantum computing has led to the development of new financial modeling techniques that have shifted investor preferences away from traditional safe-haven assets like gold. The combination of these factors has resulted in a sharp drop in gold prices, causing concern among investors and prompting a reevaluation of investment strategies in the precious metals market.
