QUESTION: Hello Martin, First let me say thank you for all that you do keeping us informed on the markets and geopolitical events.

QUESTION:  Mr Armstrong, is it true that stocks and gold are inversely correlated? ANSWER: No. That is not a correct statement. No relationship is static, other than whatever assets vs. money might be at the moment. Commodities peaked in 1919, bottomed with stocks in 1932, and then rallied into 1937. There are times when gold and […]

MM ANSWER: No. The only impact that war will have on gold is confined to either prolonged inflation or the uncertainty of the victor — the hedge against government survival. War by itself is a non-event. Gold will rise ONLY when there is uncertainty because the currency of the government will not survive a […]

The only reason gold rises is the hedge against real crisis and uncertainty. Gold may not be sustainable. We really need to see […]

COMMENT: Good Evening Martin, Great blog on the Gold Martin. Don’t bother with the nay -sayers. Most probably he got stock with too much gold and silver. Most people have bias thinking because they hold certain assets. In my country currently, most people are holding minimum 2 to 4 houses. Some are even promoting people to […]

The Austin Texas Bullion Direct has filed for bankruptcy and it is alleged that $30 million in metals that were supposed to be in storage is gone (Bullion Direct Bankruptcy-Case-Filing-7-20-2015). This is one of the bigger problems with the gold promoters claiming to be storing customer’s metals without independent audits, insurance, etc. This was a problem after […]
