In response, the dollar weakened and demand for safe havens surged, with gold prices hitting fresh all-time highs. Market participants are now reassessing their outlook on future monetary policy.

Trump's mounting pressure on the Fed is adding to market anxiety: eroding confidence in the central bank has dragged down US asset prices while fueling a rush into gold. Political rhetoric is beginning to overshadow traditional macroeconomic indicators.

Meanwhile, a significant shift is brewing on the global stage — South Korea is moving toward developed market status, a change that could alter capital flows and global investment strategies.
