Gold

We would therefore be in a much faster dynamic than in 2016, with uncontrollable inflation and a corporate credit market already in free fall: a configuration that increases the risks of a major monetary policy error. At such a level, it is perhaps this risk that gold is highlighting.

The market and investors are addicted to cheap credit and its absence will lead to collapse. That said, long-term interest rates have probably seen their low, bond price declines and much more money creation are the likely result. The broad stock market, with exceptions, will not be a good investmen...

In all three scenarios, the long-term price of gold will rise to a level well above that of today. Only short-term movements and volatility in this rise would be impacted under these three perspectives.

While money-printing is nothing new, the increase in the money supply to combat the after-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and pay for the feds’ largesse is unprecedented.

Ultimately, he sees the recent sideways movem...

Because so many investors have been the direct beneficiaries of debt driven asset bubbles of unprecedented size (and hence risk), they have ignored otherwise clear warning signs. The current zero-to-negative returns in global sovereign bonds, for example, are just the latest symptoms of how ludicrou...
