Gold futures climb $90 to $5,171 an ounce as investors flock to safe havens amid chaos from President Trump's swift tariff response after the Supreme Court struck down his emergency tariffs. Trump immediately announced 10% global tariffs for 120 days, hiking to 15% the next day, sparking fears of retaliation, supply disruptions, and stagflation that pressure the Fed's rate decisions. Silver powers higher too, hitting near-record levels above $80 on similar tariff jitters and stockpiling rushes.
