Are the people who are predicting a big economic crash right? Or are they just crying wolf? In this episode of the Friday Gold Wrap podcast, I explain why it’s hard to predict the exact timing of a crash even if you’re certain it’s on the horizon. I also talk about a couple of news items this week that caused the price of gold to yo-yo.
Topics Discussed
- Gold rallies when the Bank of Japan makes a surprising policy adjustment
 - Gold sells off after better-than-expected weekly unemployed data.
 - Why fixating on jobs isn’t the best way to gauge the health of the economy
 - The difficulty in timing economic events
 - How the run-up to 2008 looks a lot like today
