Yellen`s Dovish Speech is Bullish For Gold

Janet Yellen gave a speech in front of the Economic Club of New York and this is probably one of the most dovish speeches, if not the most dovish speech she ever gave. As a result of this speech the price  of gold was up about 20 dollars on the day.

The Fed Cannot Raise Interest Rates

If the Federal Reserve tries to raise interest rates we will have a worse financial crisis than the one they caused in 2008. And so you cannot say that this is a success, it is a complete failure but people just do not know it yet because the high has not worn off.

The Recent Gold Sell-Off Explained

When a market does not rally on good news it generally means it is overbought or ready to go down. And the people might have jumped on the failure of gold to sustain a big rally on what was perceived to be good news for gold as bad news. So that might be one of the reasons that you have the selling. To me that is a non event.

I do not buy gold because I am worried about a terrorist attack, it has nothing to do with the reasons I buy gold. I would not rush to buy gold because there was a terrorist attack. Why would I? Because when the attack is over the price goes back down. So it does not make any sense.

The real reason I buy gold  has to do with inflation, the central banks creating it, artificially low interest rates, negative interest rates, quantitative easing, all of these things.
