Re part:
“The rally in gold futures, which investors often buy when they’re worried about economic growth, has caught many by surprise. Even after the market turbulence of the beginning of the year subsided, the metal has continued to gain.”
HELLO FARMBOY,
I saw the opportunity to respond, re “worried about economic growth”. My observation is it’s the dollar’s path up or down, dictated by the global central planners. I KNEW, (long story) on Dec 3rd, TPTB (global) decided to END the temporary dollar bull market they created in June 2014.
Knowing THAT? I predicted on that day…Lower dollar, higher Euro/Yen and higher Gold and it happened. I did NOT say it because I thought investors were going to get “worried”. I’m amazed by the baloney I see authored in the gov’t media. Forth branch of Gov’t.
