Abstract
The global pandemic of COVID-19 had profound negative consequences on overall economy and caused downturns of equity markets worldwide. In such turbulent surroundings, plagued with uncertainty, investors have focused their attention to safe haven assets in preserving their capital. In that context the main objective is to re-evaluate whether gold still possess the role of a safe haven investment in such an unprecedented times like COVID-19 as well as Ukrainian war, which differ from previous crisis we have seen in for example 2008 and 1987. For the same reason rolling regression between the gold and S&P 500 index was employed due to time-varying properties of daily returns, with optimal selection of window size. Results indicate that negative slope coefficients, which coincide with COVID-19 pandemic as well as onset of Ukrainian war, are statistically significant. Those findings offer empirical evidence that gold still holds a strong position in investors’ minds as a safe haven, even though there is no universal safe have, i.e. the safe haven property of a different assets varies over time and it depends on the characteristics of the specific market and type of financial turmoil.
