Trump has said
“Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland. The United States has been trying to do this transaction for over 150 years.”
The tarrifs should be bullish for gold and silver due to amplifying economic uncertainty and safe haven demand. Metals have already rose due to factors like U.S. China Trade Concerns and policy shifts. Escalating overseas friction could further boost metals as tariffs historically fuel inflation (by raising import costs) and erode confidence in fiat currencies, prompting investors to rotate into gold/silver as a hedge

1. Risen, but you’re a yank, so it’s expected.
2. TACO, thus argument is void
So -5% on Monday?
I completely agree.
Stock markets will react tomorrow and people will switch into safer bets, like commodities and bonds and non-US investments.
US stocks will probably take the hardest blow, as many non-US people will withdraw their funds from US. It has just started and if the rhetoric remains, US will face hard times on the stock markets.
Could be bullish, could be not.
Only ones feeling the hit with these tariffs are american consumers. Others continue life as usual.
Sounds like you just asked a question and then went on to provide some level of hypothetical insight….
Not sure wha the expectation is here so…
Taco Tuesday?
Tariffs usually increase uncertainty and that tends to push some investors toward safe‑haven assets. Gold and silver often benefit in the short term when there’s friction in global trade, but the long‑term impact depends on how persistent the policy ends up being.

They could be expected to move up but the new, “breaking” mechanism of variable margins will limit the upside.
Whole portfolio is US tech but I just bought GLD leaps, maybe this will make me look smart, it was definitely on purpose
