RECOMMENDATIONS

Central theme: as stated last month, the trade tensions created by Donald Trump were indeed negotiating levers. In this context, the UK, China, soon the EU…, are redefining their trade frameworks with the US, customs barriers are being lowered, globalization is being reorganized and financial markets are racing ahead.

Gold: The bubble bursts

The easing of trade tensions, the lull on the Indo-Pakistan front and the prospects of a resolution to the crisis in Ukraine are bringing gold prices closer to a softer reality. There are no major surprises in gold. If, as we’ve been mentioning since January, 2025 is a year of resolution of age-old conflicts, now’s the time to sell a little. It’s still very high and is more likely to fall than rise in the coming months. Above all, don’t sell everything – the crisis may still hold surprises in store.
