Weaker dollar helping gold today

ByVictoria

Gold price rose more than 1% on Thursday, moving away from the one-month low it touched in the previous session, as a pullback in the dollar and fresh U.S. tariff announcements lifted demand for the safe-haven asset.

Spot gold was up 0.9% at $3,305.15 per ounce, as of 1140 GMT. The bullion had hit its lowest level since June 30 at $3,267.79 on Wednesday

“We had some large downward moves yesterday in gold around the FOMC statement release and the tariff announcement. So a moderately weaker U.S. dollar is helping gold today,” said UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo.

Spot silver was down 1.6% at $36.53 per ounce, platinum fell 0.6% to $1,318.20 and palladium gained 0.9% to $1,215.94.

    Florida Senator Proposes Bill To Recognize Gold, Silver, And Digital Currency As Legal Tender

    Follow up to Gold and Silver may be adopted as legal tender in Florida

    Sponsored by Senator Rodriguez, Senate Bill 132 aims to redefine financial transactions, taxation, and payment of debts using these alternative forms of currency.

    The legislation would also exempt transactions involving gold, silver, and related currencies from taxation. The move reflects a growing interest in alternative monetary systems as a hedge against economic uncertainties.

    The proposed bill includes several significant measures:

    ・Definition of Legal Tender:

    ・Tax Exemptions:

    ・Government Acceptance:

    ・Prohibition on Compulsion:

    ・Regulatory Framework:

    If passed, SB 132 would make Florida one of the few states to officially recognize gold, silver, and digital currencies as legal tender.

    Renowned economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff has issued a bold new call: silver is about to break out – and fast. In a tweet posted earlier today, Schiff highlighted that silver has outperformed gold for two consecutive days, closing at $33.40 and touching an intraday high of $33.50.

    “Silver is the most underpriced hard asset on the planet. While gold protects wealth, silver could build it during the next financial reset.”

    Spot gold added 0.4% to $2,755.2 per ounce as of 02:29 p.m. ET (1629 GMT). Prices were at their highest since Oct. 31 when they hit their all-time high of $2,790.15.

    “There are uncertainties with proposed tariffs and other things, and gold typically does well when there’s a large or even a moderate amount of uncertainty in the market, it’s a natural place where people gravitate to,” said Ryan McIntyre, senior portfolio manager at Sprott Asset Management

    “(Trump) has been perhaps just a shade less hawkish on tariffs as feared, which helps — less/lower tariffs is taken to indicate lower inflation hence potential for more rate cuts,” said Tai Wong, an independent metals trader.
