President Donald Trump said Monday that gold will not face tariffs.

Gold futures closed at a record high Friday on reports that the precious metal would face duties. U.S. Customs and Border Protection reportedly said gold bars were not excluded from Trump’s reciprocal tariffs.

“Gold will not be Tariffed!,” Trump said in a Truth Social post Monday.
