Gold bullion edged 0.2% lower

Bullion edged 0.2% lower to around $2,750 an ounce, roughly just $40 short of its all-time high and still set for a fourth straight weekly gain.

The president has identified China, the EU, Canada and Mexico as potential targets for import levies, though there is uncertainty over whether he will follow through with the threats. 

Gold traded at 2,751.44 an ounce as of 10:48 a.m. in London. Silver, platinum and palladium fell. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index was relatively unchanged.

    Gold Price levels hit record highs

    The precious metal remains supported as concerns about an intensifying global trade war continue to place downward pressure on the dollar and Treasurys amid diminishing faith in the U.S. as a reliable trading partner. 

    Gold’s price, which soared 6% last week and trades 23% higher since the start of the year, seesawed Sunday evening as investors digested news that recently announced U.S. tariff exemptions on smartphones, computers, and semiconductors could be temporary, with the president later pledging a national security trade investigation into the chip sector.

    Robert Kiyosaki predicts colossal market crash

    “GIANT MARKET CRASH here. Q: How can I be so bullish on gold, silver, and Bitcoin? A: Because the idiots running the Fed, Treasury, Banks, and Wall Street only know how to print money, which makes things worse. FYI: When fake money is printed the rich, who own real assets get richer…. while the poor and middle class, who save fake money, get poorer due to inflation and taxes. Let inflation make you richer, not poorer. Save gold, silver, and Bitcoin. Take care. Crash is here,” Kiyosaki wrote

    Silver undervalued to Gold

    Although the high gold-silver ratio might suggest that silver has been a laggard, that is far from the case.

This year, using popular exchange traded funds as a gauge, iShares Silver Trust (SLV) is up 10% and SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) is up 11%.
