Gold opened trading Wednesday at $ 2,998.30 , slightly higher than yesterday 's closing price.

President Trump 's global tariff announcement weakened gold's recent rally.

The S&P 500 is down 10.7% since the opening bell on April 2 .

Gold is up 38% over the past year relative to the opening price of $ 2.167.30 on March 8, 2024 .

If that feels problematic, a lower allocation percentage is more appropriate. On the other hand, you may be willing to accept gold's underperforming years so you can benefit more in the good years . In this case, you can target a higher percentage. The precious metal has been in the news lately and many analysts are bullish on gold. In February , Goldman Sachs expected gold to gain another 8% in 2025 , after surging more that 40% in 2024 . It's already blown past that 8% mark. Worries about tariffs and their impact on the U.S. economy are a primary factor..
