Analysis: Tariff deadline looms, market uncertainty pushes gold prices above $3,400
Odaily News Gold prices rose more than 1% on Monday, standing above the $3,400 an ounce mark. As the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields weakened amid uncertainty in trade negotiations, the United States stipulated that countries must reach an agreement before the August 1 deadline, otherwise they will face more tariffs. As the August 1 deadline approaches, this brings a degree of uncertainty to the market, which is certainly beneficial, said David Meger, director of metals trading at High Ridge Futures. Meger said that rumors of an earlier-than-expected U.S. interest rate cut are heating up, and speculation about the possible replacement of Federal Reserve Chairman Powell and the reorganization of the Federal Reserve have exacerbated market uneasiness.
