    Gold price up, Silver spot fell

    Gold prices edged higher on Wednesday as a weaker dollar and simmering trade tension between the United States and China lifted demand for the safe-haven metal.

    Spot gold was up 0.1% at $3,355.46 an ounce, as of 0836 GMT. U.S. gold futures edged 0.1% higher to $3,379.80.

    “I think we are seeing the same concerns around trade talks, not much progress and that is adding to uncertainty over where tariffs will land, and that’s driving gold prices right now,” said Nitesh Shah, commodities strategist at WisdomTree.

    Donald Trump said on Wednesday that Chinese President Xi Jinping is tough and “extremely hard to make a deal with,” days after the U.S. President accused China of violating an agreement to roll back tariffs and trade restrictions.

    Spot silver fell 0.2% to $34.44 an ounce, platinum rose 0.9% to $1,083.22 and palladium lost 0.4% to $1,006.49.

    Michael Oliver says Gold’s Making All-Time Highs, SILVER To Follow

    “I think that once you punch a hole in the stock market… you’re going to have a lot of that money moving,” he predicted, suggesting that a 5-10% drop could trigger a significant shift in investor sentiment, driving capital towards safer havens like gold and silver.

    Silver didn’t move with commodities in moved with gold,” he asserted, countering arguments that silver has lost its monetary significance.

    Australia’s Gold Road rejects Gold Fields proposal

    Australia’s Gold Road Resources rejected a $2.1 billion takeover proposal from Gold Fields, calling the offer opportunistic following a drop in quarterly production.

    The all-cash proposal was made earlier this month against a backdrop of surging gold prices, which recently surpassed $3,000 a troy ounce for the first time as economic uncertainty fuels demand for the metal as a perceived safe haven.

    “Gold Fields will continue to seek the engagement of the Gold Road board to consider the merits of the proposed acquisition and to advance the proposal,” said Mike Fraser, chief executive of Gold Fields.

    Silver undervalued to Gold
