Gold – Correction or full steam ahead? (video)

Gold barely flinches at Trump tariff announcement

Gold seems to have barely flinched at Trump’s announcement despite it being positive for risk, the dollar and the economic outlook, highlighting just how bullish the market is right now. Sure, the yellow metal fell a few percent on the announcement but it’s already back above $1,500 and looks relatively undeterred. The central bank environment right now is clearly aiding this unwavering belief in the rally and perhaps this just isn’t viewed as the game changer for interest rates as it maybe is for the US holiday period.

OANDA Senior Market Analyst Craig Erlam discusses all of this and gives his analysis of the gold chart.
