The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), which tracks spot&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/GLD">gold prices</a>, was trading flat in pre-market trade with retail sentiment on Stocktwits edging lower within ‘bullish’ territory over the past day.According to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ft.com/content/78be1315-608d-43c6-b8e7-80b9e18c5ce7">documents</a> seen by The Financial Times, the Customs and Border Protection agency said 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;The country is already facing 39% tariffs on exports to the U.S. The decision was a surprise to most market watchers, who had expected that gold bars would be exempt from President Donald Trump’s newly announced tariffs, according to the report.This is because when Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs were announced, the report noted that several commodities were exempt, including a bullion category widely believed to cover large gold bars.Gold prices have been rallying this year, up nearly 30% so far. 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/cryptocurrency/xrp-climbs-past-ethereum-solana-cardano-after-ripple-sec-legal-battle-ends/chrn9f4RdEn">XRP Gains Climb Past Ethereum, Solana, Cardano After Ripple-SEC Legal Battle Ends – Bitcoin Stalls</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Gold Climbs But Bitcoin Outperforms Amid Surge In Safe-Haven Demand During Trump’s Tariff Crackdown

Bitcoin outperformed gold in January, but has only gained the upper hand again after last week’s rally.

U.S. gold mining stocks rose on Friday, boosted by a climb in spot gold (XAUUSD) amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel.Newmont Corp. (NEM) rose 3.5% to $5.79, Barrick Gold (GOLD) shares gained 3.2% to $21.59, while U.S. Gold Corp. (USAU) closed 1.3% higher at $13.38 on Friday.The XAUUSD spot gold price had risen as much as $3,443.55 per ounce, just shy of the all-time high of $3,500 per&nbsp;ounce it had climbed to in April. August gold futures also rose to $3,436.90 per ounce.The escalating conflict between Iran and Israel pushed investors to seek refuge in traditional safe-haven assets like gold.The price movement came after a sharp surge on Friday, triggered by Israel’s initial strikes on Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure. The conflict has since intensified, with both Israel and Iran exchanging missile and drone attacks.Analysts believe that as long as geopolitical tensions persist,&nbsp;gold demand will likely&nbsp;stay elevated, potentially driving prices closer to the record highs seen in April.Gold prices have&nbsp;surged this year, driven by multiple factors, including a weakening U.S. dollar and uncertainty over President Donald Trump’s trade policies.&nbsp;The conflict has also pushed oil prices up, with Brent crude futures rising 0.8% to $74.85 per barrel and the U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures gaining 0.9% to $71.93 per barrel, as of 1.31 a.m. ET.The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), which tracks gold bullion prices, was up 1.3%.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com
