Gold Climbs as Trump Tariffs Raise Economic Concerns and Dollar Weakens

Gold prices climbed back above $2,870 on Monday after last week’s pullback, helped by a falling dollar and rising concerns about Trump’s upcoming tariffs.

The president plans to hit Canada and Mexico with 25% tariffs this week and double existing charges on Chinese imports. These moves are raising fears of “stagflation” – a dangerous mix of slowing economic growth and persistent inflation that typically drives investors toward gold as a safe haven.

Recent economic reports suggest the US economy may be heading in this direction, creating a perfect environment for precious metals. Meanwhile, growing expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts have made non-yielding assets like gold more attractive. While inflation concerns initially strengthened the dollar last week (usually negative for gold), Monday’s weaker dollar gave gold prices room to rise. Silver, palladium, and platinum also gained ground.

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.
