Gold steady amid Trump's 100% tariff threat on chip imports and trade tensions
Gold held a moderate loss, as traders looked past uncertainty created by US President Donald Trump's latest trade moves, including threatening a 100% tariff on chip imports. Traders also watched for Trump's nomination within days of a temporary Federal Reserve governor who is expected to be more aligned with his agenda to ease monetary policy.(AFP File Photo) Bullion was steady around $3,370 an ounce after a 0.3% decline in the previous session. This came after Trump said he would impose a 100% levy on semiconductor imports in a bid to force companies to move production back to the US. Meanwhile, relations with key trade partners soured, with the US leader doubling the tariff on Indian goods to 50% over the South Asian country's continued purchases of energy from Russia. Japan may also face higher duties than agreed last month on some products, Kyodo reported. Traders also watched for Trump's nomination within days of a temporary Federal Reserve governor who is expected to be more aligned with his agenda to ease monetary policy. Lower rates benefit gold, which doesn't yield interest. The precious metal's recent rally has been driven by rising expectation of rate cuts. Central bank buying and a broad trend of diversifying away from US dollar-denominated assets have also offered support. It's climbed nearly 30% this year, though the bulk of its gains happened in the first four months, as geopolitical and trade tensions rattled the market. Gold was 0.1% higher at $3,373.45 an ounce as of 8:42 a.m. in Singapore. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index was steady. Silver, palladium and platinum all rose.

Big U.S.-India Escalation: Trump Threatens SANCTIONS After 50% Tariffs Over Russia Oil
Brazil's Big BRICS Snub At Trump Over Tariff War, Nikki Haley Warns US Not To Burn Bridge With India In a stunning diplomatic twist, Brazilian President Lula da Silva has refused to call US President Donald Trump amidst a growing trade war. While Trump imposed a crushing 50% tariff on Brazilian imports and threatened similar action on India, Lula declared that he would instead reach out to Indian PM Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Lula called the tariff day "the most regrettable" in Brazil-US ties and hinted at coordinated BRICS retaliation. India, too, faces tariff threats from Trump over Russian oil purchases. Meanwhile, Nikki Haley warned Trump against alienating India while soft-pedaling on China. As Trump dismisses BRICS as "fading fast," the bloc's symbolic banknote launch and anti-dollar stance suggest a global realignment, with India at its center. The global trade game is shifting, and New Delhi is no longer a silent player.#lula #donaldtrump #trumptariffs #brics #bricsbanknote #modi #xijinping #putin #nikkihaley #indianews #brazilnews #globaltradewar #usindia #usbrasil #russianoil #chinaus #wto #geopolitics #modigovernment #usforeignpolicy #trendingnow #india #breakingnews #trending #bharat #toi #toibharat #indianews 6.1K views | 20 hours ago
