Peter Schiff: Gold Rises, Even With Bad News

Via SchiffGold.com,

This week Peter retrieves another stellar week for precious metal. He besides discusses Friday’s jobs report, community prices, and Bitcoin.

Peter starts by putting this week’s surgeon into context:

“There’s an old Wall Street saying: ‘nobody rings a bell,’ means that nobody wars you erstwhile you’re at a major top or a major bottom. The problem is there are bells. It’s just that people don’t admit them. They don't hear them. They don’t know what to perceive for. Well, there was a large bell rung present in the gold market, in the silver market. And everybody is speech reef. ... To give you an thought of the size of the gain this week in gold and silver, gold rose 4% on the week, which is simply a large decision for gold in 1 week. Silver rose 10%.”

Friday’s comparative strong jobs study is no consensus since most of this month’s fresh jobs are in the public sector:

“All these jobs— net—are part-time jobs. Look at the jobs. Almost 70% of them are government jobs. They are wellness care jobs, and quite a few wellness care jobs are truly government jobs in disguise. And food and beer, hospitality, waiters, bartenders, hotel Maids, that kind of stuff— that’s where the jobs are. We had no creation of manufacturing jobs at all. And last month’s destiny of manufacturing jobs, which was originally reported at minus 4,000, was revised to minus 10,000.”

Even with Bond yields rising, gold inactive wet up this week. This suggestions there’s something more at play than what Wall Street’s trading algorithms can detect:

“Gold’s going up no substance what. It’s just that it’ll go up even more on weak economical news than on strong economical news. But whatever the news is, gold is going up! Gold is being reprice. Central banks are expanding their gold reserves. They don't care! They don't care about the Fed at this point. They don’t care how many rate cuts we’re going to get this year. They don't even care if we get any rate cuts this year. no of it matters. Gold is going up no substance what.”

Evidence keeps mounting that inflation is not under control, with the CRB Commodity Index up 17% of this year and oil up 22%. This straight countries the national Reserve’s most fresh narrative:

“The Fed should be hiking rates, but they can’t. As I said, they’ll origin a financial crisis. ... So they keep talking about how inflation is contained— that they inactive think it’s coming down. They’re just not rather certain yet. They request a small bit more evidence. All the evidence shows that inflation is going up. So it’s all B.S. They’re contacting to their script. ... If the Fed hiked rates, it would be the biggest commission of a mistake, due to the fact that if the Fed hikes rates, what does that mean? ... They were wrong!”

Today’s economy is reminiscent of 2007’s. all economical problem is supposedly under government control— until it is’t:

“This is all like 2007, 2008, erstwhile after so many years of informing about a problem in the housing marketplace and the subprime market, it yet blew up. And the mainstream were inactive completely oblivious. They were inactive holding this ‘Goldilocks’ large communicative always told. ... Right up until the collapse of Lehman. This is the same thing. We’ve had the equivalent of the subprime lenders going bankrupt and people thinking, ‘Don’t worry about that. It’s contained.’ And at the same time, we got all these Bitcoin ETFs creating this large distinction, this large side show that’s distracted people’s attention from the center ring. They’re all over there in Bitcoin, and they’re missing out on gold.”

Some of the economical harm could’ve been contained had Jerome Powell and the Fed not enabled disastrous national policy:

“When the president makes a mistake and the president of the national Reserve knows it’s a mistake, he doesn’t just sit there silent! It’s his occupation to cryicize it, due to the fact that the average American doesn’t know. ... We’re supported to put real smart guys to head the national Reserve—smarter than the average truck driver or waitress. So he needs to explain to that truck driver and that waitress what they’re doing is crow. They’re going to destruct the value of your savings—of your payecks. But no, he’s afraid to that. He won’t cryicize any policy due to the fact that he doesn’t want to upset any of the congressmen. Why not? If they’re doing the incorrect thing, what’s more important? Their feeling? Their political career or the country?”

Sadly it does in fact see that the political forces at play will keep the Fed from performing the appropriate monetary policy needed to correct years of inflation.
