Gold Rallies 3% as Trump-China Tariff War Shakes Global Markets

Published: 04-09-2025, 08:51 am

Gold rallied as much as 3%, reaching $3,073.04 before settling at $3,066.69 an ounce, as global markets reacted to President Trump’s extensive new tariff policies and China’s immediate countermeasures.

The precious metal’s rebound came amid a surprising selloff of US Treasury bonds—typically considered safe-haven assets—indicating heightened investor anxiety.

Trump has imposed tariffs on approximately 60 trading partners, with China facing a particularly steep 104% tariff, to which China responded with 84% tariffs on US goods.

Gold’s 27% Drawdown Matches 2008 and COVID Almost Exactly. That’s Not a Warning.

Gold has fallen roughly 27% from its January 2026 high — almost identical to its drawdown in 2008 and during COVID. Both of those corrections resolved to significant new highs. Jeff Clark breaks down what history says comes next, why central bank buying hasn’t slowed, and the third historical parallel that makes this moment even more precise than either prior comparison.

Class 3 Vault: The Two-Hour Attack Standard That Protects Your Gold

A Class 3 vault must withstand more than two continuous hours of sustained attack by professional burglars using power tools and cutting torches. It is the highest commercial vault rating under UL Standard 608 — and a mandatory condition of NYMEX/COMEX licensure, not a marketing claim. Here is exactly what that standard requires, and what it means for the gold you store.

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
