Head Shot of Eric Sprott Weekly Wrap Up

August 3, 2018

Gold is up on the day, and here’s hoping this marks the start of a new trend. Eric is back once again to help us make sense of the week’s news, including:

Who’s doing well right now—and who’s not

Why rates might be cut in 2019

Plus: where you can find the good news

       “We’ve got to expect more difficulty for the man on the street, here… Even the hours worked this week were down .1 hours. So, that’s not good. That’s just less salary. It’s been the same old thing. I think the data’s always been wrong. Even the GDP data’s always wrong, when they tell us it’s 4% growth. That’s baloney. They always revise it later to some lower number, and anyway, I just don’t believe the recovery is nearly as strong as the press and economists would like us to believe.”
