Gold prices saw a modest uptick this week following the passing of Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” (OBBB), with markets weighing the longer-term implications of increased government spending and rising debt levels.
The OBBB, which includes a range of fiscal stimulus measures, passed the Senate after a tie-breaking vote by Vice President J.D. Vance. While not as inflationary as some feared, the bill still adds to US fiscal concerns—prompting a mild move into traditional safe-haven assets like gold.
Spot gold rose in the days following the bill’s passage, reflecting early positioning by investors anticipating further monetary easing or longer-term currency pressure. Analysts say gold’s response has been measured, but may build if inflationary signals strengthen or rate cuts return to the table.
