U.S. gold futures gained <strong>1% to $2,878.90<\/strong>, as traders turned to safe-haven assets amid geopolitical and economic uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Gold rose after last week\u2019s sharp correction, with investors weighing the economic outlook as US President Donald Trump prepares to implement import levies against key trade partners. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kKvDCDknLm\">https:\/\/t.co\/kKvDCDknLm<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Bloomberg (@business) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/business\/status\/1896355023233089709?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 3, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier in the session, gold had dropped to <strong>$2,832.68<\/strong>, reflecting <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sXYtiqM4yv\">broader market concerns<\/a><\/strong> over U.S. President Donald Trump&#8217;s escalating tariff policies. However, the <strong>U.S. dollar index (USDX) eased 0.4%<\/strong>, helping gold regain strength. A <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ILgRPy0lQU\">weaker dollar<\/a><\/strong> makes gold more attractive for non-dollar holders, contributing to the rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Market Focus Shifts to Tariffs and Federal Reserve Policy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Traders remain cautious ahead of the scheduled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/a5kU2WNU7L\">10% tariff increase on China<\/a><\/strong>, set to take effect on Tuesday. The move adds to existing <strong>20% cumulative tariffs<\/strong>, raising fears of inflationary pressures and economic slowdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While gold is often seen as a hedge against geopolitical risks, rising interest rates can dampen its appeal. Last week, U.S. inflation data <strong>suggested a <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YHh2wdERcW\">cautious stance<\/a><\/strong><strong> from the Federal Reserve<\/strong>, reducing the likelihood of immediate rate cuts.
