The Trump factor that is driving precious metals

Cory
January 31, 2017

Today with Chris we discuss the pop in the precious metals but also focus on the bigger picture of Trump and Peter Navarro’s comments. With the potential of a currency and trade war coming out of the Trump administration investors are shifting their focus to the metals. This could all be part of a larger unwind of the trump optimism…

    I am wondering whether, on Friday, Asian markets will look at this currency news and just dive into gold and silver… perhaps copper as well…

    Is it possible that today’s comments from Peter Navarro are because the White House already know that the Fed is going to come out being more hawkish tomorrow?

    It would not surprise me if Yellen tried to sabotage Trump.

      We’d better buy some uranium stocks then.

      Was that you Excelsior, propping up URA today? 😉

        You never know…….

        Really I’m waiting to see if things will consolidate here and may add a little bit; but for now just watching how things wrap up on the monthly. Also there the potential wonkiness of the general stock markets and Fed babble over the next few days.

        For now, I’m very comfortable with my cost basis in the Uranium stocks in my portfolio, and am interested to see if this sector may have a little more downside left to work off. If there is a more significant downturn, then I’ll deploy a bit more dry powder, and if it catapults up from here, then I’ll be all smiles….. 🙂

    I have a starter in PALAF at 7.1 cents.

      Ahah…. Jason, you’re a risk taker I see…… 🙂

      I’ve also been trading Paladin recently and have a position on as well for a swing trade, but I consider it very high risk even though they are one of the larger producers for economic reasons. All the best to you sir.

    Trump is saying cars coming from German don’t get charged the VAT and that statement makes no sense. It makes no sense to charge sales tax on sales that occur in another country.
