Americans are a crazy gold and Asian profits that keep buying
US investors have begun to get rid of gold bars and coins they have seized at an earlier stage, while their peers in Asia show no gesture to stop buying, indicating another future view of the global economy between investors on both sides of the world. This contrast indicates that residents of the United States who keep alloys and gold currencies in their homes or in safe treasures – such as daily traders in the stock market – feel more reassuring about President Donald Trump’s policies related to customs duties, raising government debt and geopolitical tensions, and that they are ready to earn profits during the past two years. This, known as (individual investors), violates the general market trends, where wealthy investors, sovereign wealth funds and central banks still demand the origin, which is considered a safe haven. At the same time, Asian buyers are prone to alloys and currencies instead of jewelery. “Many individual investors in the United States are prone to the Republican Party, and whatever we say about customs duties policy, they like Trump’s style, so there’s no big reason to buy gold from their point of view,” says Philip Newman, managing director of Metals Focus. Reducing price bonuses The US market is witnessing a plethora of alloys and gold currencies to the extent that some precious metal traders have resulted in the price allowance reducing their lowest levels in 6 years to stimulate sales. Currently, investors who want to sell are ready to pay fees to get rid of gold. Money Metals Exchange currently sets a $ 20 fee above the immediate price on the buyer of the US “American Eagle”, which weighs one gram, compared to 175 dollars four years ago. As for the sellers, they now have to pay about $ 20 for the electronic platform to buy gold, while they received a $ 121 bonus at the sale in 2021. This surplus led to the collapse of sales of new gold products, as the US “Eagle” was issued by the US home – which is an indication of individuals’ request – has dropped more than 70% in May in May to a level of a year. The demand in America and Europe has decreased and the highlight in Asia has reduced the demand for alloys and gold coins in North America and Western Europe over the past three years, while it has risen in the rest of the world. Last year, the largest variation began since the start of data registration in 2014, according to “Metals Fox”. According to the consulting company, this contrast continued in the first quarter of 2025, mainly driven by sales operations in the US market. On the other hand, the demand for alloys and gold coins increased by 3% in the Asia Pacific region during the first quarter, and the Chinese market recorded an annual increase of 12% year -on -year, according to the latest data from the World Gold Board. South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia have also recorded a growth of more than 30%. Kenny Ho, the strategic analyst of the commodity market at City Group, said the initial concern that China and Asia would seriously damage Trumpdoons led to a very strong demand for gold in the region, adding that concerns about the decline in the value of local currencies also contributed to the preference of the preference of the preference. According to Brian Lan, the managing director of the Goldsilver Center for the Trade of Precious Metals in Singapore, East Asia who does not find other investment options began to see after gold. He added that “investors in Southeast Asia who have memories of war realize that gold represents a form of safety in times of uncertainty.” We earn profits part of the comparison and in the United States, profit distribution is part of the equation in light of the incredible rise of gold prices since the beginning of 2024 with $ 3274.33 per ounce. But the Wall Street banks are divided into whether this Ascension has reached its peak, as “Goldman Sachs” confirmed its expectations that gold will reach $ 4000 per gram by next year, and “Morgan Stanley” expects to reach $ 3,800 by the end of this year, while “city group” will reduce up to less than $ 3000 in 2026. have: ‘They can now think that things are good. Customs are not so bad, and there will be negotiations, and geopolitical tensions will eventually retreat, and the growth of the US economy may not be bad. ‘
