Copper price up.4%

ByVictoria

Benchmark copper on the London Metal Exchange (LME) was up 0.4% at $9,418 a metric ton by 1000 GMT, having hit a peak of $9,481.50 in the previous session for its highest since April 3.

“It’s almost impossible to see what is happening from one day to the next. No doubt the tariff optimism that triggered the risk-on rally early in the week has faded again,” said Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank in Copenhagen.

U.S. Comex copper futures gained 0.5% to $4.87 a lb, bringing the premium over LME copper to $1,314 a ton.

    Gold prices scaled a record peak above the crucial $3,000-mark on Tuesday for the second time in a week, as investors sought cover from economic concerns fuelled by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff policies.

    Spot gold rose 0.2% to $3,006.88 an ounce as of 0525 GMT after hitting a record high of $3,016.92 per ounce earlier in the session.

    “Gold is moving higher on account of a weaker dollar and continued tariff uncertainties… With Gold at record highs there is a lot of technical and chart based buying that kicks in since there is no resistance apparent on the charts,” said Marex analyst Edward Meir.

    Spot silver firmed 0.1% to $33.85 an ounce, platinum added 0.2% to $1,002.50 and palladium rose 0.4% to $968.96.

    “The uncertainty over US tariffs is pushing investors toward safe-haven assets like gold,” said Michael Hewson, Chief Market Analyst at CMC Markets.

    The weaker US Dollar, coupled with uncertainties surrounding US trade policies, is supporting silver’s bullish momentum.

    Gold (XAU/USD) is trading at $2,940.57, showing a modest gain of +0.07%.

    Silver (XAG/USD) is trading at $32.68, slightly down by -0.03%.

    The silver market has seen a lot of noise at the $33 level, as it is a major resistance level from what I can see. At this point, you need to understand that the silver market is not just a precious metal, but an industrial one.

    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.

    “I HATE to say this…. But the banking crash Jim Rickards, Jim Rogers, Ray Dallio and I have been warning you about has started. Even if you have very little money you may still be able to profit from this crash. All you need is a few extra dollars…. Because you can still afford to buy a few real silver coins… before silver double[s] and triple[s],” Kiyosaki wrote.
