Gold prices climbed today driven by safe-haven buying as President Trump's 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum took effect. The precious metal advanced despite February's Consumer Price Index showing inflation rising less than expected at the slowest pace in four months. April gold futures increased by $20.60 (0.70%) to close at $2,943.40, marking the second significant daily gain this week.
