Gold ETF (AAAU) Hits New 52-Week High

The bank has maintained its downside case at $3,700 per ounce, the report read.UBS said that the key macro drivers, including further Federal Reserve rate cuts, lower real yields, and geopolitical tension, should continue to support demand. The analysts also highlight growing political noise ahead of the U.S. midterm elections, which could spur additional safe-haven buying.They expect prices to consolidate near $4,300 following political events in late 2026, but see scope to reach the new $4,900 upside case if global political and financial risks intensify.UBS’s view echoes recent bullish commentary from Goldman Sachs, which also sees gold hitting $4,900 by the end of 2026 with further upside if investors continue diversifying their portfolios.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Have The ETFs Performed?</h2>Since the start of the year, SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD) has gained 53.5%, iShares Gold Trust (IAU) and VanEck Merk Gold Trust (OUNZ) have both climbed 53.7%, while&nbsp;abrdn&nbsp;Physical Gold Shares ETF (SGOL) and Goldman Sachs Physical Gold ETF Trust (AAAU) have risen 53.8%.<figure class="image"><a class="st-link-external" href="https://www.datawrapper.de/_/CgYnc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><img style="aspect-ratio:1240/630;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Cg_Ync_gold_etfs_gains_in_2025_png_455c3757e5.webp" alt="CgYnc-gold-etfs-gains-in-2025-.png" width="1240" height="630"></a><figcaption>Gold ETFs Gains in 2025</figcaption></figure>&nbsp;Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/dow-futures-rise-nvidia-earnings-beat/cLPAWVDRE9A">Dow Futures Rise As Investors Cheer Nvidia’s Earnings Beat: NVDA, AMD, GOOGL, WMT Among Stocks To Watch</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Gold ETFs Set to Soar on September Fed Rate Cuts

Gold ETFs gain traction as Powell's dovish tone, a weaker dollar and rising inflation fears fuel the yellow metal's safe-haven rally.

The White House is reportedly planning to issue an executive order to clear up any confusion around tariffs on gold bars after futures linked to the precious metal hit a record high on Friday.“The White House intends to issue an executive order in the near future clarifying misinformation about the tariffing of gold bars and other specialty products,” a White House official&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ft.com/content/c2868087-9951-4f04-818f-5082437f603a">told</a> the Financial Times.The update comes after the publication cited&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ft.com/content/78be1315-608d-43c6-b8e7-80b9e18c5ce7">documents</a> on Thursday from the Customs and Border Protection agency, which said&nbsp;one-kilo and 100-ounce gold bars should be classified under a customs code subject to levies. One-kilo bars are the most common form of gold traded on Comex and would deal another blow to Switzerland.&nbsp;On Friday, gold futures hit a&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/gold-futures-hit-record-high-as-us-plans-tariffs-for-gold-bars/chrnOuBRdEr">record high</a> of $3,534 before paring off some of the gains.

When Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs were initially announced, several commodities were exempt, including a bullion category widely believed to cover large gold bars.Gold has been rallying this year, up nearly 30% so far. The decline of the U.S. dollar, inflation concerns, and rising government debt levels have contributed to its uptick.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/gold-futures-hit-record-high-as-us-plans-tariffs-for-gold-bars/chrnOuBRdEr">Gold Futures Hit Record High As US Reportedly Plans Tariffs For Gold Bars</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
