Calling the Fed's Bluff: Axel Merk on the Market Reaction Off the Less-than Hawkish Jerome Powell

Calling the Fed's Bluff: Axel Merk on the Market Reaction Off the Less-than Hawkish Jerome Powell

In the first segment of this week’s long-form, we reconnect with Axel Merk and Merk Investments and Merk Insights to discuss the unsurprising FOMC decision for a 25 bps hike and the somewhat suprising (to some) market reaction off the Jerome Powell presser. Axel talks gold, its move the past few months and this blip sell-off late in the week.

We then get the final corporate updates from Meridian Mining, Ascot Resources, Dolly Varden Silver and ATAC Resources all recorded from VRIC.

We’d like to thank our sponsors:
