    Gold up 2%, Silver up 4.1%

    Gold rose more than 2% on Monday to its highest in over three weeks, as a weakening dollar and a combination of geopolitical risks and economic uncertainty fuelled investor demand for safe-haven assets.

    Spot gold was up 2.7% at $3,377.29 an ounce, as of 10:19 a.m ET (1419 GMT), after hitting its highest level since May 8 earlier in the session.

    “The latest tariff threats on Friday, including plans to double steel and aluminium tariffs to 50% along with Ukraine’s weekend attacks deep into Russia, have heightened geopolitical risks and are fuelling risk-off sentiment,” said Peter Grant, vice president and senior metals strategist at Zanier Metals.

    “For the gold forecast, this backdrop of risk aversion and fiscal uncertainty couldn’t be more favourable.”

    Spot silver rose 4.1% to $34.31 an ounce, platinum was up 0.3% at $1,059.55 and palladium rose 1.2% to $982.40.

    In a landmark victory for coin dealers, collectors, and investors, the Kentucky General Assembly has overridden Governor Andy Beshear’s veto of House Bill 2, officially enacting a sales-tax exemption for currency, bullion, and coins.

    Introduced Jan. 10, 2025, HB 2 passed the House with a 76–17 vote and the Senate with a 30–6 vote earlier this year. The veto override, finalized on March 27 with an 80-19 vote in the House and an 31-6 vote in the Senate, marks the successful conclusion of a year-long effort to protect Kentucky taxpayers.

    March 31 has become a flashpoint for silver buyers hoping to shake up the market—and possibly squeeze out the short sellers.

    If only the physical market demand for silver could overcome the paper market short sellers, the spot price of silver would almost certainly take off much higher.  Toward that end, there is a developing strategy for investors around the world to purchase physical silver on March 31.  This day is the focus because it is the final trading day of the calendar quarter, when financial firms need to report their financial results.
