Gold just hit a five-year low.

On Friday morning, the precious metal fell more than 1% to as low as $1,129.80 an ounce, the lowest since 2010.

In a morning note to clients on Friday, Accendo Markets wrote: "Gold ($1,144) lower yet again after the German conservatives voted to start talking about the details of a third Greek bailout while Grexit plans were locked away for the time being. So when investors are confident, they sell gold; when they're worried, they don't buy it. A strong US dollar with all this talk of interest-rate hikes likely contributing to gold's seeming change of purpose of late with the three-month downtrend intact."
China on Friday disclosed how much gold it was holding for the first time in six years. Its reserves rose 57%, and it is now the fifth-largest holder of gold.

Gold mining stocks are getting slammed. Shares of Barrick Gold Corporation, the largest gold miner in the world, fell more than 5% – the lowest in 24 years. Newmont Mining shares fell 2%.
