Abstract: In this study the relation between stock markets and precious metals during first wave of Covid-19 pandemic are investigated. We use a wavelet-based quantile procedure to investigate correlation between major stock markets of emerging countries (BRIC) and the United States. Our procedure reveals that precious metals offer market diversification opportunities during the period under consideration. In particular, it is found the gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, all serve as safe-haven assets during periods of market distress across short, medium and long investment horizons.
