Gold price (XAU/USD) halts its two-day winning streak on Wednesday as rising US Treasury yields pressured non-yielding assets.
However, the precious metal could receive upward support from safe-haven demand amid the implementation of US tariffs.
Trump's 25% levies on Mexican and Canadian imports took effect on Tuesday, alongside a hike in Chinese duties to 20%, escalating trade tensions and prompting retaliation.
However, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick suggested in a Fox News interview that Trump may reconsider his tariff policy less than 48 hours after its implementation.
He noted that if the USMCA rules are followed, relief could be offered. However, the New York Times reported that Trump has privately signaled that he intends to maintain the tariffs.
