XAU/USD outlook: Gold continues to shine and hit new all-time high

GOLD

Spot gold surged to new all-time high ($1944) in early Monday’s trading, extending last week’s 5% rally.
Deepening crisis between the US and China further boosted safe-haven demand and deflated dollar which fell to the lowest in nearly two-years.
Break of former top at $1920 was quite fast, although we expected stronger headwinds her, but current circumstances with high political tensions, rising number of new virus cases and uncertainty about global economic recovery, prompted investors into safety.
Apart from very bullish fundamentals, technical studies on daily and weekly chart are strongly overbought and continue to warn of correction, but still lacking firmer signals that keeps near-term focus at the upside.
Today’s close above former all-time high will generate initial bullish signal for extension towards psychological $2000 barrier, with dip-buying above $1900 seen as favored near-term scenario.
Caution on return and close below $1900 that would signal deeper pullback.

The EUR/USD pair is seen building on Friday's late recovery from the 1.1750-1.1740 region, or a nearly one-month trough, and gaining some follow-through positive traction at the start of a new week. The momentum lifts spot prices to the 1.1835 area during the Asian session and is sponsored by a broadly weaker US Dollar.

The cryptocurrency market starts the week in panic mode, with altcoins Zcash, Pump.fun, and LayerZero. Bitcoin falls below $65,000 as the US President Donald Trump regroups amid renewed trade policy risks.

Liberation day take two, the tariff machine just changed gears

Let me caveat this from the outset. What we are watching is first-order mechanics, not the grand macro endgame. This is the market’s immediate reflex to a 15% Trump tariff levy dressed up as judicial drama. The Supreme Court blocked Trump tarrif hammer. The White House came back with a scalpel.
