Gold shines on Trump's tariff play, soft inflation print
12-Jun-2025, 02:22
Gold climbed toward $3400 per ounce on Thursday, fueled by a cocktail of geopolitical tensions and monetary policy optimism. Heightened US-Iran friction and President Trump's plans to impose new unilateral tariffs reignited risk aversion, while dovish cues from US inflation data strengthened expectations of a Fed rate cut as early as September. The dollar index dipped below 98.3, hitting its lowest since early 2022, further supporting the metal. MCX August gold futures surged ₹1100 to ₹97805 per 10 grams, with physical prices soaring past ₹1 lakh. Traders now look to Thursday's PPI release for further clarity on the Fed's path ahead.
