Gold

Will claims (derivatives) on gold (GLD, futures contracts, options, options on futures) cause the spot price of gold to be more volatile than it’s been in prior inflationary cycles?

Remember, there are far more claims to gold available for trading than were available in the 1970s.  In the 70’s we lacked the widespread access to derivatives that are available to us now.

This will likely make the movements in gold, silver and the miners more volatile during this inflationary cycle.

For all these reasons, gold will be a great market to trade over the next few years.

As for now, gold continues to trade in it’s recent range.

  • Mr. V is now the time? Is gold in my future? Do I buy contracts or Swiss safe deposit boxes?
