Trump Wins and Precious Metals Get Smashed Down
Trump has stated explicitly that Jerome Powell will be replaced and that he wants negative interest rates which will send precious metals soaring.Yet we get precious metals taking a beating.Go figure.One guess why that is happening is Trump's anti-war stance.Which will mean fewer dollars flowing into the military industrial complex.

Basicly I see this as a very short term jerk knee reaction. The fundametals for a rising gold price have not changed and will not change under Trump and in fact Trump will excaserbate the fundamentals for a stronger gold price with tariffs that will reduce the U.S. share of global trade and foster growing Global South trade less dependent on the US dollar for transactions.
