This week, we speak with Christopher Aaron of iGoldAdvisor.com on major macro trends for gold, silver, and the major financial markets to close this year into 2019.
Last time Chris was on his show in early June 2018, we discussed the then building probability that spot prices could fall as they indeed did throughout this past summer 2018.
What major trends is Chris watching at the moment?
What is happening with the Gold Silver ratio, bond market, and how useful is the COT Report for making short term trading calls?Â
