Gold receives support from the movements of the Federal and Trump .. This is its price today

Gold continued to attract its pioneers from buyers at its price, which reached about $ 2915 amid a state of global uncertainty and the threat of global trade war by US President Donald Trump, things that provide some support to the precious metal, according to the FX Street platform.

Gold and Trump orders

Last week, US President Donald Trump issued an executive order to exempt goods from Canada and Mexico under the North American Trade Agreement known as “USMCA” two days after its imposition.
However, US Secretary of Trade Howard Lottennik late Sunday said that customs duties at 25% on steel and aluminum imports, which are scheduled to enter into force on Wednesday, are unlikely to be postponed.

Factors that support the height of gold

The uncertainty surrounding Trump’s customs policies is likely to enhance investor flows on a safe haven, which benefits the price of gold in the near term.
Moreover, the labor market in the United States slowed last month, as a report indicated that the Federal Reserve remains on its path as it is until now to reduce interest rates several times this year, and this in turn weighs the dollar and raises the price of commodities denominated in dollars.

American economic data

Data issued by the American Labor Statistics Office revealed on Friday that non -agricultural jobs in the United States increased by 151,000 jobs in February, followed by an increase of 125,000 jobs (modified from 143,000 jobs) in January.
