Gold climbed higher on Thursday amid renewed threats of a tariff war, simmering US-Iran geopolitical tensions, and a softer U.S. jobs data. Front Month Comex Gold for June delivery gained $59.60 (or 1.79%) to $3380.90 per troy ounce. Front Month Comex Silver for June delivery gained 4.70 cents (or 0.13%) to $36.213 today. In a significant development, U.S. President Donald Trump said that, in the coming weeks, he is going to send letters to nations trading with US, setting unilateral tariffs even ahead of the July 9 deadline he had already set for negotiations.

This move comes after Trump's statement where he said that he felt less confident of a US-Iran nuclear deal. He however had added that US would not allow Iran to have nuclear weapons. Iranian defense minister responded to this saying Iran would attack U.S. bases if there is a conflict.
