Amid ongoing global trade tensions, gold is emerging as a safe haven, with prices rising sharply across major cities—from New York to New Delhi. While U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies initially rattled global markets, a recent pause in tariff implementation brought temporary relief. However, the lingering uncertainty is driving a surge in gold demand worldwide.
