I Speak About Gold Investing at the NRA Convention

At the National Rifle Association’s national conference in Atlanta I visited briefly with Donald Trump, Jr., Sheriff David Clarke, Dana Loesch and Wayne LaPierre.

Gold and Trump’s Popularity Rising

Gold rose another $35 last week, mostly due to the escalation of hostilities in Syria, Afghanistan and North Korea.  At the same time, stocks declined 1.5% in the first half of April, so gold and silver are now far ahead of stocks for 2017. To date, silver is up 14.3%, gold is up 12.1% vs. just 3.5% for the Dow Jones index and 4.0% for the S&P 500.
