Markets are staying surprisingly calm in the face of President Trump’s escalating tariff threats — but don’t mistake that for confidence.
While the White House claims traders are warming to the idea of tariffs, many investors say they’re just assuming Trump won’t go through with them.
If that assumption is wrong, markets could be in for a rude awakening. For gold and silver investors, this uncertainty highlights the importance of hedging against policy shocks and geopolitical volatility.
