Gold Down $100? This Really Shouldn’t Be A Surprise
It’s been a tough couple of weeks. Everything’s down. Stocks are down, bonds are down, heck, even gold is down over $100. What’s going on? We turned to one of our favourite guests, Technical Traders’ Chris Vermeulen and asked for his take on market activity. What are his thoughts? None of this is a surprise […]
