Via SchiffGold.com, Gold has continued to
push upward. The latest catalyst was another escalation of the trade
war. Gold briefly moved above $1,550 in dollar terms. But it has done
even better in relation to other currencies. In fact, the yellow metal is at record highs in nearly every currency except the dollar.
ゴールドは上がり続けている。直近のキッカケは貿易戦争激化だった。短期間だがゴールドは$1550を超えた。しかし他国通貨ではもっとすばらしい。実際、殆どの通貨でゴールドは過去最高だ、唯一の例外がドルだ。
Peter Schiff appeared on RT America on Aug. 26 to talk about it. He
said he thinks gold is eventually going to make new highs in the dollar
as well, and this time, it’s not going to stop going up.
Peter Schiffは 8つき26日にRT Americaでインタビューを受けた。彼が言うにはやがてドルでも新高値になるだろう、そして今回は留まるところを知らない。
Peter said he doesn’t necessarily think that recession fears, in and of themselves, are pushing gold higher.
They’re worried about what the central banks, and in particular the
Federal Reserve, is going to do about the next recession. That’s why the
price of gold is going up - because the Fed is going to be going back
to zero; they’re going to be going back to quantitative easing and all
of this is good for gold.”
Peter noted that gold has been making record highs in almost every currency except the dollar.
Peterはこう述べる、ドル以外の殆どの通貨でゴールドは記録的高値になった。
And I think ultimately, we’re going to make a high in the dollar,
probably before too long. And you know, when the Fed did quantitative
easing the first time, the reason that the gold rally stopped at $1,900
was because everybody believed that the Fed had an exit strategy and
that they could reverse the process, normalize interest rates, unwind
their balance sheet. When they realize that they were mistaken to
believe that, that there is no exit strategy, that it’s
basically QE forever, that the balance sheet is going to grow into
perpetuity — gold’s not going to stop next time. It’s going to keep on
going.”
As far as the trade war goes, Peter called it “a bit of a distraction.”
Peterに言わせれば、貿易戦争など「ささいなものだ」。
The US economy is going into recession regardless of what happens
with trade... The trade war certainly makes a bad situation worse, but
it was a bad situation anyway. And I think a lot of people have some
false optimism that all we have to do is end the trade war and we’ll
avert recession. That’s not going to happen.”
Peter said he doesn’t expect the Chinese to simply surrender in the
trade war. In fact, he sees signs that the Chinese are digging in their
heels and believes the trade war could continue on beyond the next
election.
Peter said he doesn’t know what the Trump administration could do to
stave off the recession. He reiterated that recession is inevitable and
the problem is the more they delay it, the worse it’s going to be. He
said he thinks the downturn will start before the election and Trump
likely won’t be reelected.
I think the Fed will do what it can to avert it. They will go back to
zero. They will do more QE. We may even get some type of tax cut or
increased government spending in a vain effort to try to stimulate the
economy. But that’s not the type of stimulus the economy needs. We need
less government, not more government. We actually need higher interest
rates, not lower interest rates. But even if we do the right thing,
that’s not going to avert the recession because the recession is part of
the cure, and we need to embrace it, not resist it. Unfortunately,
politicians will never do that because they are more concerned about
their reelection that the long-term health of the economy.”
So, where should the average Joe put his money? Gold?
では、平均的な米国人はどこにお金を投じればよいのだろう? ゴールド?
Well, I think gold’s going up whether or not the stock markets crash.
In fact, the only way to prevent the stock markets from crashing is to
print a lot of money and slash rates, which is really good for gold. So
yes, people should be buying gold. Don’t think you’ve missed the
boat if it’s at $1,530 and you haven’t bought. We’re going a lot
higher. Remember, we were at $1,900, so we’re well off the highs. There
aren’t that many assets that you can find that are off their highs like
gold, other than silver, which is probably an even better buy. It’s
much further off its high.”
Peter said investors should stay away from the dollar, not only
because of the looming recession, but because its days as a reserve
currency could be numbered. Peter noted that even the Bank of England
president has said the dollar should no longer be the reserve.
Gold is going to be the reserve. Gold was the reserve before the dollar and it will be the reserve after the dollar.
So, people should buy it now. Don’t wait for that to happen because
when we remonetize gold, the price will be much, much higher than it is
today.”
最後の2段落だけ訳をいれました。 Big Silver-Stock Potential Adam Hamilton February 7, 2020 2689 Words The silver miners’ stocks are looking interesting. While they really lagged silver’s surge on gold’s bull-market-breakout rally last summer, their upleg since remains intact. Gold stocks’ own upleg peaked in early September. And silver itself remains wildly undervalued relative to gold, overdue to mean revert dramatically higher. When that happens during gold’s next upleg, the silver stocks have big potential to soar. Like the global silver market is vastly smaller than gold’s, silver stocks are a proportionally-little fraction of the precious-metals miners. As a small subset of a usually-ignored contrarian sector, the silver stocks often languish in obscurity. For decades there wasn’t even a silver-stock index, making sector analysis difficult. ...
Gold Mid-Tiers’ Q4’19 Fundamentals Adam Hamilton March 20, 2020 3250 Words The mid-tier gold miners’ stocks have been annihilated with COVID-19 fears infecting traders’ sentiment. They crashed with gold getting hammered on extreme gold-futures selling! With blood in the streets, the buy-low opportunities are phenomenal. The fundamentally-superior mid-tier gold miners have epic upside potential during gold’s next upleg. This key sector just reported outstanding Q4’19 results on higher gold. The sheer carnage in gold-stock-land has been jaw-dropping! In late February, the gold-stock sector per its leading benchmark GDX VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF edged up to a 3.5-year high slightly above early September’s. That was fueled by gold’s $1600 breakout surge on COVID-19 fears. Yet as I warned in an essay the trading day before GDX’s pe...

Investors are rushing back into gold to diversify after seeing mind-boggling central-bank money printing and government spending. Since that epic monetary inflation won’t be unwound, and investors were radically underinvested in gold before the panic, this trend is likely to persist for years. It will catapult gold and its miners’ stocks far higher. The most comprehensive look into global gold investment demand is published quarterly by the World Gold Council. Its experts have been deeply studying the gold markets for decades, which shows in their outstanding Gold Demand Trends reports. These must-read analyses are released about a month after calendar quarters end. But while that d...
最後の2段落だけ訳をいれておきました。 Gold Buying Precarious Adam Hamilton January 10, 2020 3366 Words Gold dramatically surged to major new secular highs this past week, fueled by stunning geopolitical news. The US assassinated Iran’s top general, so Iran fired ballistic missiles at military bases in Iraq used by the US. That naturally ramped gold bullishness, spawning all kinds of predictions for much-higher prices. But geopolitically-driven gold spikes never last long, and the gold buying behind this surge is very precarious. Geopolitics are fascinating, the modern intersection of centuries of history, politics, religion, and military actions. Growing up, geopolitics were my second passion after the markets. I read everything I could on that broad topic, both nonfiction and fiction. Tom Clancy’s masterful novels were my favorites, and I love that wh...
最後の2段落だけ訳を入れました。 Gold-Miner Valuations Adam Hamilton January 24, 2020 3132 Words The gold miners’ stocks have spent the past half-year mired in a high consolidation. They haven’t been able to break out, but aren’t breaking down either. This technical purgatory is working to slowly bleed off overboughtness and rebalance sentiment. This necessary process to eradicate greed from the last upleg peak is never exciting. But today’s low gold-miner valuations reveal great upside potential in their next upleg. The world’s leading and dominant gold-stock trading vehicle and benchmark is the GDX VanEck Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund. It commanded $13.2b in net assets in the middle of this week, 2.7x larger than its next-biggest competitor GDXJ. The major gold miners’ stocks included in GDX soared this past summer, blasting higher after...
