Economist Jim Rickards Highlights Gold's Opportunity During Market Meltdowns, 9 AUGUST
"Gold is being profiled as a relevant investment option in economic uncertainty and market instability times. Jim Rickards, a U.S. economist and best-selling author of books like “Currency Wars” and an opinion contributor to several newspapers and publications including The New York Times and The Washington Post, has referred to the investment opportunity that gold presents during acute market setbacks."
"In social media, Rickards reinforced its solid opinion of gold as a hedge against market instability, predicting the price movement of the precious metal during these events."
Rickards says, "In a stock market meltdown, gold goes down due to selling by weak hands who need cash for margin calls. The strong hands take a beat, wait for a bottom. Then they jump in with both feet because they know it’s way up from there."
"Rickards has been analyzing gold’s position in today’s economy, stating that the metal might be used in case of a global currency meltdown to re-establish the gold standard, with many countries, including the U.S., purchasing gold to support the value of their currency."
"According to the World Gold Council, demand is expected to maintain the next year supported by central bank gold purchases for portfolio diversification and protection purposes."

JON DOWLING
Upcoming Meeting in New York
The Governor stated that "meetings will be held with the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury Department at the end of August to review all aspects related to external transfer operations and discuss sanctions on certain banks."
He noted that "what was expressed in previous discussions and interpretations during the last meeting in Washington was not, in fact, the quarterly meeting, nor did we meet with the Federal Reserve.
Instead, we attended other meetings, including a visit to the U.S. Treasury Deputy Secretary, which was a routine encounter that addressed general matters and confirmed the Central Bank's success in leading its initiatives, including external transfers and the cash sale of dollars, which have also been developed to facilitate dollar access for travelers." https://ina.iq/eng/34044-ina-discusses-with-the-cbi-governor-the-files-on-exchange-rates-foreign-transfers-and-housing-initiatives.html

Once again, for those who are skeptical, cynical, or just didn’t see it or believe it, here is proof the federal reserve is tucked into the Treasury Department. You can see by the wording and the seal changed as well from the Federal Reserve to the Treasury seal predominating. This will all come out publicly once President Trump returns optically.
