Gold

 Gold has eclipsed its inflation-adjusted peak set more than 45 years ago as growing anxiety about the US economic trajectory under Trump—including the independence of the Federal Reserve, the reliability of US economic data and uncertainty over his trade war—takes bullion’s blistering three-year bull run deeper into uncharted territory.


The spot price of gold has surged about 5% so far this month, with prices hitting an all-time high of $3,674.27 an ounce on Tuesday. It’s set more than 30 nominal records already in 2025, but the latest leg of the rally has also taken it through an inflation-adjusted peak set on Jan. 21, 1980, when prices topped out at $850.

Airline Industry Leaves COVID Turbulence Behind

Spending Spree

Chinese tourists embarking on adventures at home are forecast to pump a record 6.79 trillion yuan ($938 billion) into the mainland economy this year — topping pre-pandemic levels for the first time. Spending by domestic holidaymakers is expected to be 11% higher than 2019 — before the Covid pandemic stopped most travel, according to a report by the World Travel and Tourism Council and Oxford Economics. Meanwhile, international visitors to China still haven’t rebounded. Spending by foreign tourists on the mainland this year is expected to hit 715 billion yuan —  about a quarter below 2019 levels.
