Fear and uncertainty in the market is driving investors to push up the price of gold, which touched a record high of $3,004.86 per ounce on Friday. It closed about $18 lower. Silver also surged, exceeding $34 before it closed at $33.87 per ounce.
Just about a month ago, on February 11, we posted that gold just broke $2,900. If you are lucky enough to own precious metals, then this increase in value is good news for you. For the rest of us, the rising price of gold is a sign that the market is troubled because the world is in turmoil. The world is in turmoil because Trump is disrupting the normal course of events. He’s not just upsetting the apple cart, he’s blowing it up. The apple cart may need to be blow up, but that doesn’t mean doing so doesn’t scare people.
It’s a good time to be a prepper.
