Sunday’s tweets from US President Donald Trump, which caused waves on Monday, were yet breaking through markets on Wednesday ahead of another round of high-level trade talks.
Right now, the yellow metal gold’s prices are escalating to their highest in more than a week as revived worries over the US-China trade dispute and its potential impact on global growth marred risk sentiment.
The safe-haven demand slightly faded after China’s Ministry of Commerce confirmed yesterday that Vice Premier Liu He will lead discussions in Washington on May 9 and 10, extending some hope that talks have not entirely broken down. On the other hand, a dramatic dip in stock markets is also increasing the demand for safe-haven asset gold.
