Kathmandu. The price of gold and silver has reached all-time high. There are many reasons behind this increase. But do you know about Donald Trump? Yes, many of Trump’s decisions in his second term have proved to be exacerbating global tensions.
Gold prices continue to set new records. Although the price of gold appeared to be agitating in 2025, it resumed its strength after a brief pause in early 2026 and this trend continues.
Gold and silver are known as safe havens. When global tensions rise and markets are in panic, people prefer to invest in gold and silver. This means that it is not a safe investment, but is linked to political tensions, tariff threats and turmoil in global markets. Trump’s tariff war has proven to escalate tensions around the world. Due to this, the price of gold and silver has been increasing continuously.
Trump’s association with the rise in gold prices can also be explained by the fact that the factors that are commonly seen at this time are not present. This means there is no global recession, and inflation in the top economies is either stable or falling. Still, the price of gold and silver is skyrocketing, and developments from the US are playing an important role.
Experts are also citing similar reasons behind this increase. Due to the increasing global uncertainty, the price of gold and silver is reaching a new high every day. Since coming to power, President Trump has ushered in a new phase of political uncertainty in the market. The threat of tariffs and every change in foreign policy are pushing investors towards safer investment options. His recent threat of a 10 percent tariff in eight European countries has accelerated this trend. –Agency
