Gold gains after 3% plunge on Trump win
Gold (XAU/USD) bounced back to $2,670 on Thursday after dropping 3% the previous day as President-elect Donald Trump secured victory in the US presidential election.
Gold drops 3.0% as Donald Trump wins election Gold’s sharp decline on Wednesday was partly a result of a stronger US Dollar (USD) due to Trump’s dollar-positive economic agenda and preference for pro-tariff protectionism. Since Gold is mostly priced and traded in USD, a stronger Dollar has a direct negative impact on its price.
