Mike Maloney, founder of GoldSilver.com, recently completed a marathon, 81-minute interview with Nicholas Merten of the DataDash YouTube channel.

While a myriad of forces pushed the gold price around in 2018, it basically ended the year flat. This report recaps the year in gold, shows how it compared to other asset classes in both short and long timeframes, and explores the factors to watch in 2019.

"Corporate debt, after years of encouragement by the Fed via artificially low interest rates, has reached historic levels. Now even the Fed is worried about its handiwork. Many of these companies will default over the next few years. This is a cleansing process that is part of the business cycle – only this time, it’s so much larger "

In general, it seems safe to say that 1) recession follows yield curve inversion by somewhere between 11 and 23 months and 2) it may or may not stay inverted until the recession arrives. If the present echoes the past, and if the 2-year/10-year curve does invert in the next couple of months, then we may expect recession some time in 2019 or ’20.

Gold ETFs track the price of the metal, don’t require you to store any bullion, and even list the serial numbers of the bars on their website. But similar to the old joke about “waterfront” land in Florida that turns out to be swampland, so too are these products once you glance under the hood.
