Stagflation is here

Latest CPI shows CPI remaining higher while economic growth in the US in Q1 was anemic.

Stagflation is the descriptor and the last time this happened.. 1975- 83....POG skyrocketed .

Which is why POG continues to rise.

The FED is trapped.

It cannot raise rates when economic growth is anemic so high CPI cannot be attacked by that move.....even worse, as in the 1970s, CPI is not caused by demand but by supply..but it cannot cut rates as that would boost demand.

So, we are in a goldilocks situation for the POG.
There will be volatility, but high POG seems assured ..

5 months ago it was immaculate disinflation.  Now its stagflation.... I think the US economy needs a couple more quarters to say that.

Dixiedee...the economic situation you outline will indeed help gold and thats why you need to hold a producer during these times. Holding a speculative gold stock like NFG will in many cases not increase as gold moves up. Just look at NFG today barely holding 5 bucks as gold knocks on 2400. At the very least hold a producer to offset the underperfomance of NFG.

As I have told you and everyone else on here holding Builion everyone should have some holding a royalty company and a producer is all a good idea I hold all three and have for many decades but if you do hold some money in a jr newfound gold is the best of the class and yes everyone should invest responsible and do their own DD but implying you can't hold abut of a gold jr in your portfolio is ...more
