Gold price set for worst month in over a year on Trump-driven selloff
Bullion has now dropped over 3% so far this month, its worst monthly slide since September 2023.
Argentine authorities have arrested two Paraguayan men who attempted to smuggle a 19th Century gold ingot worth more than $2 million.
The ingot, which has been confiscated by Argentina’s tax authorities, weighed 25 kilograms (55 pounds) and was stamped with the inscription “Central Bank of Paraguay – 1824,” ABC.es reported (in Spanish).
One of the men told officers they had bought it from a group of indigenous people for about $50,000.
The piece is thought to have been buried for safekeeping by a wealthy family during the war of the Triple Alliance in 1864-1870, when Paraguay fought against Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

El AFIP is a criminal enterprise and the gestapo of the “K”. I would more likely believe they are confiscating property illegally by claiming it was being smuggled.
