The "fiscal cliff" is a combination of government spending cuts and tax increases set to take effect at the beginning of 2013 unless lawmakers reach a compromise on a new budget deal. The Treasury Department has recently reported that the October deficit, which is the first month of the new fiscal year, grew 22 percent to $120 billion. Gold historically has gained in times of economic uncertainty as investors look to it as a safe haven.

"Unless there is a clear agreement between the Democrats and Republicans on the solution to the so-called U.S. fiscal cliff, the short-term direction is bullish for gold," said Chintan Karnani, chief analyst at Insignia Consultants.
