Gold miners have benefitted from falling oil prices, as lower oil prices positively impacts mining costs. "Our best guess as to why gold stocks have reverted to tracking gold again is the underperformance of oil. Oil prices, one of the largest inputs to mining, have been falling, while gold prices have remained stable," stated Ned Davis Research's John LaForge and Warren Pies.

On another note, China's demand for gold hasn't slowed down after a strong first quarter. According to data collected from Commerzbank gold imports from Hong Kong in April saw a 65 percent increase from the month prior. At the end of April China had imported more than 50 percent of the previous year's import volume says Commerzbank.
