The U.S. dollar surged to a near four-month high as markets anticipate a Trump administration that could bring pro-crypto moves, trade tariffs, and tax cuts. Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $89,637, with analysts speculating it could hit $100,000 by year-end if the rally holds. Trump’s economic stance, which includes a promise to make the U.S. the “crypto capital,” has dampened Fed rate cut expectations for December, now down to 65% likelihood. With Congress set to support his policies, Trump is already warning the euro bloc and China about hefty tariffs on cars and exports—moves that could keep dollar momentum going strong.
Gold Under Pressure as Trump Victory Shakes Up Markets
Gold dipped to $2,620 per ounce, flirting with a one-month low as the U.S. dollar surged and investors pivoted to riskier assets, excited by Trump’s fiscal shake-up. With early tariffs expected to fuel inflation, markets speculate the Fed may delay rate cuts, adding pressure on gold. Meanwhile, demand in India soared, with gold ETF holdings hitting a record 54.5 tonnes—a powerful signal of enduring appetite amid global shifts.
