Safe-Haven Rush: Gold Tops $3,400 Amid Trump-Fed Tensions

Published: 04-21-2025, 09:20 am | Updated: 04-21-2025, 07:58 am

Gold has reached a record high of $3,390 per ounce, driven by a weakening US dollar and increasing market uncertainty. President Trump’s criticism of the Federal Reserve and reports he considered firing Chair Powell have raised concerns about central bank independence, potentially undermining dollar confidence.

Trade tensions between the US and China continue to unsettle markets, with China warning other nations against deals that might harm its interests. These factors, along with expectations of a global economic slowdown, have pushed investors toward safer assets.

Institutional demand remains strong, with bullion-backed ETF holdings rising for 12 straight weeks and central banks adding to their reserves. Investment banks remain optimistic, with Goldman Sachs forecasting gold could reach $4,000 per ounce by mid-2026.

Two Inflation Numbers Come Out Every Month. The Fed Only Cares About One.

The Fed releases two inflation numbers every month — headline CPI and core CPI. They tell very different stories, and the Fed only acts on one of them. Here is what each measure captures, why the Fed leans on core PCE to set interest rates, and why that gap between what you pay and what the Fed watches matters for gold investors.

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.
