This Week's Headlines: |
Let’s take a minute to look at Gold's price performance this year. Gold has increased in price from December 31st, 2024 to Friday April 11th, 2025, just 3 ½ months, by $615 (23.4%). Extraordinary times bring extraordinary increases in the price of Gold. Investors, corporations, and Central Banks around the world are running to Gold in times of chaos and uncertainty. The latest round of tariffs and the astonishing volatility that has caused bedlam in the world financial markets has driven equities lower and Gold higher. The U.S. Dollar dropped 4% last week, which is a $120 increase in the price of Gold by itself.
Barring any earthshaking news coming from the Trump Administration, I expect to see Gold consolidate its recent gains this week. Hopefully, Gold will stay above $3,200 per ounce and build a firm base for the next leg higher. But, strong demand from Central Banks and financial institutions could easily take the price past $3,300 before the end of the month.
Many of the popular U.S. and European physical Gold bullion plus coins have seen their premiums move lower in the past few months. The lower premiums were caused by profit-taking by long-term Gold owners and represent a great value right now.
Gold reached a new all-time record high last Friday of $3,246 per ounce and closed the week at $3,235, up $205 for the week.
Key Economic data to watch this week:
- Wednesday: U.S. Retail Sales
- Thursday: Initial Jobless Claims, Housing Starts
Today: Gold traded above and below the key $3,200 level this morning. Trading stayed active in Asia, the Middle East, and European markets. The U.S. Dollar Index remained weak, staying under 100.
Trump’s tariffs and the financial markets catastrophe around the world really affected the Silver price. Silver dropped $5.42 per ounce (15.7%) Thursday and Friday, April 3rd and 4th. Silver briefly broke below the key $30 per ounce support level before rallying back last week. Silver rallied $2.68 per ounce last week, closing at $32.10 on Friday. The Silver-to-Gold ratio is still at an unbelievable low of 101.65-to-1.
Today: Silver reached a high this morning of $32.47 per ounce before selling off with Gold in European trading. For most of the trading day, Silver has traded above and below the important $32 per ounce level.
