Au Contrarian
Gold and silver will both rise far above their current levels. “When” is unknowable. “Why” is due to the unremitting and insolent amorality of central bankers and their practices. If not Simple Ben at the Fed, his compatriots across the globe are a daily source of confusion, contradiction, and stupidity.
The stupidity may be real or it may have evolved from an unwillingness to think, as George Orwell wrote of Stanley Baldwin’s and Neville Chamberlain’s abdication of responsibility in the 1930s: “What is to be expected of them is not treachery or physical cowardice, but stupidity, unconscious sabotage, an infallible instinct for doing the wrong thing…. Only when their money and power are gone will the younger among them begin to grasp what century they are living in.”
