Gold ETF Hit With $1 Billion Outflow: Investors Dump Safe Haven Asset After Trump Win

Benzinga

The SPDR Gold Trust saw a $1 billion outflow in the days following the election, marking its largest weekly withdrawal since July 2022. Investors appear to be shifting away from gold, prompted by economic optimism surrounding Donald Trump's re-election. Gold’s recent pullback follows a record high of over $2,700 per ounce. With prices down 6% this month, November could be gold’s worst performance since September 2023. Analysts link the outflows to expectations for faster economic growth and a stronger dollar under Trump.
