My dear friends Ronald-Peter Stöferle and Mark Valek have just published the 13th edition of their “In Gold We Trust Report 2019″. The leitmotif of this year is “Gold in the Age of Eroding Trust” and how the widespread as well as multi-facetted erosion of trust affects gold. Among others, the following topics are covered this year:
- Review of the most important events in the gold market over the past 12 months
- “The Monetary U-Turn” and its impact on the gold price
- The increasing importance of gold as reserve asset in a time of de-dollarization
- Gold stocks: reasons for our confidence (ESG, technology, valuation)
- Outlook for gold price development
Further highlights of this report are exclusive interviews and guest contributions from and with many well-known personalities, such as Jim Rogers or Prof. Steve Hanke.
I have contributed an update on the Midas Touch Gold Model starting on page 320.
