Markets reacted sharply to renewed trade uncertainty after a US Supreme Court ruling overturned President Trump’s emergency tariff powers.
The decision weakened the dollar and supported major currencies, with the euro rebounding toward $1.18 on strong Eurozone PMI data and the yen recovering toward 154 as trade risks resurfaced. Precious metals outperformed, led by a surge in gold to a three-week high near $5,150 and a sharp rally in silver above $87, both driven by rising safe-haven demand amid escalating tariff friction. Sterling also recovered above $1.35, aided by a softer dollar and improved UK business activity, as investors reassessed global growth and trade dynamics.

While Trump stated these new duties would take effect immediately, uncertainty remains regarding whether a formal executive order has been finalized.

Silver prices jumped 3% to trade above $87 per ounce on Monday, marking a fourth consecutive session of gains. This rally follows renewed global trade friction as President Trump raised the international tariff from 10% to 15% after a Supreme Court setback. In response, Europe’s trade chief signaled a pause on a key U.S. trade pact, and India postponed negotiations for an interim agreement. These escalating tensions have significantly increased demand for silver as a safe-haven asset.
From a technical view, resistance stands near $88.50 while support is located around $85.80.
| R1: 88.50 | S1: 85.80 |
