Does the gold production penalty for Contested Market apply to the seconard trait from Colonial Market and other such holdings? Similarly, do wealth tokens also modify these traits?

Contested Market: Economic Open, 2 gold : Choose a player with three or more Holdings in play. Give his target Holding -2GP (this turn).

Colonial Market: Bow: Produce 3 Gold. Once per turn, produce 1 Gold that can only pay for a single action from your card in play.

The traits on Colonial Market that produce gold are gold production traits, and are affected by +nGP and -nGP effects.
