Gold and silver prices surged to multi-year highs amid escalating geopolitical tensions over Greenland tariffs and renewed Iran war fears. The market reaction reflects increased demand for safe-haven assets as investors flee equities, with the S&P 500 hitting a one-month low. Trump's projected Greenland acquisition and upcoming EU meetings in Davos further fueled uncertainty. The move highlights gold's role as a hedge against geopolitical risks, with silver also benefiting from industrial demand and speculative flows.
