Recently, President Donald Trump announced a slew of new tariff rates on several countries including a 25% rate on Malaysia. We ask Dilin Wu, Research Strategist, Pepperstone as to what impact this has on the global economy and markets. We also ask her if gold remains the safe haven asset to own despite having risen by more than 25% on a year to date basis.
