Episode Details

Gold reached a record high of $3,023 per ounce, with significant flows from Swiss refineries to the US and predictions it could rise to $3,500 by year-end. Global demand remains strong with Western investors experiencing FOMO and Vietnamese consumers standing in long lines to purchase gold, while India faces a $13 billion loss from its sovereign gold bond program. Despite the current gold-to-silver ratio being historically high at 91, analysts remain bullish on both metals due to factors including record debt markets, deficit spending, and worldwide fiat currency proliferation.
