Frank Holmes: Threat of Rising Rates Is Short Lived

Daniela Cambone, host of Kitco News, welcomes Frank Holmes back to the program on Monday morning when gold is hovering at a two-week low.

Frank says gold’s movement is simply part of the noise cycle we’re dealing with right now. “The threats that rates are going to rise in the U.S., I think, are short lived,” he explains.
