But rather than the price […]
In his latest video blog post, Peter Schiff looks at last week’s jobs numbers and gold’s rally thus far in 2014. He also comments on Janet Yellen’s press conference and her obvious lies about the effects that Fed policy is having on the economy. Wall Street is still extremely skeptical of gold’s rally.
