Gold's price (XAU/USD) has breached the previous all-time high and sets a new record high at $2,942 in early Tuesday trading before flipping into a loss for the day.
Meanwhile, United States (US) President Donald Trump has imposed 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports for all countries as of March 12,, while China has quietly imposed retaliatory tariffs on some US goods.
China is only showing its teeth by now and has not gone full blazing, while US President Trump is nowhere near his promised 60% levies on all Chinese products as announced earlier in his campaign, Bloomberg reports.
Meanwhile, traders will focus on Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell's semiannual testimony to lawmakers on Tuesday and Wednesday for fresh clues about the path the US monetary policy will take.
Powell is likely to highlight the resilient economy as a key reason central bankers are in no rush to cut borrowing costs further. This is a big risk for Gold this Tuesday, as it could be a bearish element for bullion.
