Gold Slips as Fed Signals More Hikes to Come
Yesterday the FOMC concluded their September meeting yesterday, leaving rates at their 22-year high. It signalled another rate hike was coming, this side of Christmas. The FOMC also amended its projection for 2024 rates, raising them from 4.6% to 5.1%. Unsurprisingly the US dollar surged whilst gold fell back. Prior to the FOMC statement gold […]
When The Weight of Inflation Becomes Too Much
In a comment to MarketWatch last week we said that traders this week would be most focused on the CPI report that came out yesterday.

Hammerhead Sharks, BRICS and Central Bankers
This week the world has needed the eyes of a hammerhead shark in order to keep track of the meetings that are taking place.

Gold: The Answer To Being Debanked?
It is said that the term ‘bank’ comes from the Italian ‘banca’ meaning bench. This is back when we used banks as safe havens for storing multiple real assets, particularly gold.
