Bitcoin plunges, gold soars : lessons for investors ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This divergence is mainly explained by the role of gold’s safe-haven status<\/strong>, especially in a context of economic and geopolitical uncertainty<\/strong>. With the upcoming “Liberation Tariffs<\/a>” announced by Donald Trump<\/a>, investors are turning heavily towards gold<\/strong> to hedge against risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump has recently announced substantial new tariffs<\/strong>, especially on imported automobiles (+25%) and steel\/aluminum (+25%). These protectionist measures raise concerns about a deterioration in trade relations<\/strong> between the US and its major partners. In this tense climate, gold appears as a preferred safe-haven asset<\/strong>. It is experiencing increased demand from investors looking to secure their assets<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, countries like Russia, Turkey, and China continue to increase their gold reserves<\/strong>, further bolstering upward pressure on prices. Geopolitical tensions, including the tough negotiations between the US and Russia on the ceasefire in Ukraine, also fuel this appetite for gold, seen as a safe asset<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technical analysis : XAU\/USD heading towards $3,500 ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From a technical perspective, gold shows a solid bullish momentum<\/strong>. The price successfully broke the key resistance at $2,787<\/strong>, the top of the ascending triangle formation. It is now trading above the 50-week exponential moving average, a signal of a positive trend. The Relative Strength Index (RSI)<\/strong> has also climbed to 47, indicating a strengthening momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n

These technical elements suggest a continued rise in gold prices<\/strong>, with the next target to watch around $3,500<\/strong>. Only a return below the support at $2,787<\/strong> would challenge this bullish outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold or crypto : where to invest in uncertain times ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While cryptocurrencies<\/a> are plummeting, gold shines brightly<\/strong>, fully benefiting from its safe-haven status in an uncertain economic and geopolitical context<\/strong>. This performance divergence<\/strong> shows that Bitcoin<\/a> and other cryptos <\/strong>are not yet perceived as secure assets, unlike gold.<\/p>\n\n\n

However, crypto investors remain hopeful for a rebound once the dust settles. Risk assets have often performed well during recessions, thanks to interventions by the Federal Reserve<\/strong> to boost the economy. Cryptocurrencies<\/a> might regain strength once the situation calms down. If you believe it’s the right time to invest in cryptos, you can do so on the Weex<\/a><\/strong> platform. Currently, you can benefit from an attractive welcome offer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
