Daniela Cambone of Kitco News welcomes Frank Holmes back to the program, on a day when the oil market is quieter and the U.S. dollar is weaker. So what’s up with the gold market? Frank says is impressed that gold is doing so well right now, particularly in the context of positive real interest rates on the 10-year and 5-year yields, compared to three months ago. He does believe, however, that the U.S. dollar is due for a rally, which could have a short-term pullback on the yellow metal due to its inverse relationship with the currency.
Frank shares his thoughts on the oil market as well, and tells Daniela what market-moving economic indicator he has his eye on for the end of this week. Watch the full replay below!
