Gold’s New Golden Age: How Trump’s Tariffs Turned the Metal into a Gold Rush
With gold smashing past £2,342 (about $3,080) this week, investors are flocking to the precious metal like it’s the next big pandemic‑free vacation spot. Why? Because President Trump’s sweeping tariff wave is sprinkling uncertainty across the economy, and gold’s the safe‑haven everyone wants to hide their wealth in.
Why the Gold Surge?
Rick Kanda, Managing Director at The Gold Bullion Company, explains:
- Economic uncertainty is the spark— Trump’s tariff raids have turned every investor’s head toward gold.
- U.S. buyers are relocating overseas— They’re moving their gold vaults abroad, not selling, so the supply‑side pressure is actually a relocation dance.
- Physical gold beats cash— The trend is shifting from “gold ETFs” that trade in paper, to real, hard‑and‑fast gold you can hold in your hand.
All these factors create a logistical squeeze on the physical supply chain, which pushes the price higher.
2025 Outlook: Will Gold Keep Flying?
Rick’s crystal ball reads:
“Gold could hit $3,500 by the end of the year. As 2025 progresses, I expect the metal to keep climbing, especially if economic instability keeps playing.
Central banks are apparently signing on to a “gold‑fire‑hose” approach, buying aggressively and providing a boost to prices.
In short, 2025 looks set for another record‑breaking year in gold. Investors, sit tight—your metals are getting a boost without a motion picture star giving a directorial shout.
