Gold prices in international market fell amid US trade deal progress
Gold prices in the international market dropped on Monday after US President Donald Trump signalled progress on multiple trade agreements and announced extended tariff reprieves for several countries. This led to the dampening demand for the safe-haven metal, leading to the reduction of gold prices. On July 7, spot gold fell 0.6 per cent to $3,314.21 per ounce and US gold futures were down 0.6 per cent to $3,322, reported Reuters.
The US is inching closer to finalising trade agreements in upcoming days, he said that the first letters on tariffs and trade deals will be sent to countries on Monday. In April this year, Trump announced a 10 per cent base tariff on most countries, with additional duties of up to 50 per cent. He later postponed the effective date for all but 10 per cent of those tariffs until July 9.
According to OANDA senior market analyst Kelvin Wong, the impact of this on gold is that, this short-term reprieve is causing this weakness in the gold price right now.” Meanwhile, the spot silver fell 0.8 per cent to $36.81 per ounce, platinum shed 0.8 per cent to $1,380.55 and palladium also lost 1 per cent at $1,123.31.
