Gold stalls with progress on trade deals
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LInkedIn


Gold (GC=F) futures opened at $3,321.10 per ounce Monday, down 0.4% from Friday’s close of $3,334. The price of gold is also 3.5% lower than last week’s peak of $3,441.

News of progress on trade deals may have contributed to gold’s lower opening price. The U.S. and EU have agreed to a 15% tariff on EU imports to the U.S. Also, a Chinese news source reported the U.S. and China are likely to extend their tariff agreement by 90 days. Countries without negotiated trade deals will soon be assigned tariffs, according to the Trump administration. Stock prices have responded positively to news of lower negotiated levies, which often coincides with reduced demand for gold.

The opening price of gold futures on Monday is down 0.4% from Friday’s close of $3,334 per ounce. Monday’s opening price marks a decline of 0.9% over the past week, compared to the opening price of $3,350.30 on July 21. In the past month, the gold futures price has declined 0.3% compared to the opening price of $3,332.40 on June 26, 2025. In the past year, gold is up 40.2% from the opening price of $2,368.70 on July 26, 2024.

Investing in gold is a four-step process:

Set your goal

Set an allocation

Choose a form

Consider your investment timeline

The first step to investing in gold is understanding your goals for buying it.

Given gold’s historic behavior, three suitable investing goals for a gold position are:

Diversification into an asset that moves independently from stock prices

Protection against inflation-related loss of purchase power

Backup source of value and wealth in an unlikely economic collapse

Gold has long been part of a balanced portfolio given its ability to hold its value – or even increase further – when the value of other assets is falling. That is why investors utilize gold as a stabilizer. Investors rely on gold’s strength in tough times to limit unrealized losses in equities and inflation-related reductions in purchasing power of cash deposits. That’s exactly what we’re seeing play out now before our eyes.

Gold is also a widely recognized store of value. As such, the precious metal can potentially stand in as a medium of exchange if the dollar collapses.

“I recommend that everyone buy a little gold as a hedge against calamity,” said Scott Travers, author of The Coin Collector’s Survival Manual and editor of “COINage” magazine, in an interview with Bottom Line, Inc. Gold “should be viewed as an insurance policy,” he said.

Whether you’re tracking the price of gold since last month or last year, the price-of-gold chart below shows the precious metal’s steady upward climb in value.

Historically, gold has shown extended up cycles and down cycles. The precious metal was in a growth phase from 2009 to 2011. It then trended down, failing to set a new high for nine years.

In those lackluster years for gold, your position will negatively impact your overall investment returns. If that feels problematic, a lower allocation percentage is more appropriate. On the other hand, you may be willing to accept gold’s underperforming years so you can benefit more in the good years. In this case, you can target a higher percentage.

The precious metal has been in the news lately, and many analysts are bullish on gold. In May, Goldman Sachs Research predicted gold would reach $3,700 a troy ounce by year-end 2025. That would equate to a 40% increase for the year, based on gold’s January 2 opening price of $2,633. Rising demand from central banks, along with uncertainty related to changing U.S. tariff policy, are the factors driving the increase.
