Abstract :The Coronavirus is one of the most influential infectious diseases of the 21st century. This study investigates the Hatemi-J asymmetric causality relationship between stock market returns and gold market returns for five of the most affected countries between January 02, 2020 and December 31, 2020. The results show that because of the demand for liquidity, the atmosphere of panic, and the perception of gold as a safe haven, the causal relationship is not strong for each country.
