Gold is an independent asset, it moves quite independently from the economic cycle. It's really not too hard to understand this since one must consider the sheer diversity of it's supply and demand base, this is afterall, the penultimate determining factor of price movements in the market place.

Commodities tend to typically fall during economic recessions, since the raw materials used in the production of non essential goods and services declines. However, the demand for gold, in comparison to other commodities is actually quite small. In 2007 just 14% of gold demand came from the industrial sector which was mostly, electronics. This is in great contrast to base metals and even other precious metals where the greater demand comes from industry. The upside of this is that gold is not so susceptible to the vagaries of the general economic market conditions. With that being said however, the demand for gold in electronics is likely to fall if the overall economy does in fact fall into a full blown recession. as consumer spending on electronics naturally falls with it.

Recession in the US would without a doubt have some negative implications for the gold jewelry demand in North America, as consumer spending slowed down. All is not lost however, far from it as regards gold investing is concerned since this would at least be offset by the increased share of gold jwelery within the rail sector. Added to this point, gold is actually much less vulnerable than other jewelry materials, such as diamonds or platinum to a US recession as far greater demand for gold comes from outside of North America - 70% of diamond jewelery demand comes from the US, compare this with just 10% for gold.

The final source of demand that comes from investors themselves, people like you and me. Investors buy gold for a huge number of reasons. One of the chief reasons amongst these are gold's inflation and dollar hedging properties, both of which factors have been proven for a very long period of time. How a recession affects investment demand would depend, in part, on how inflation and the dollar react.
