Mark O’Byrne: Skyrocketing Physical Demand and Currency Reset Looming
Tom welcomes Mark O’Byrne back to the show. Mark is Research Director and founder of GoldCore, a global Bullion dealer based in Ireland.
Mark discusses what a currency reset would look like today and why it will be a messy process. It would likely be a global event involving most fiat currencies and would occur along with bank holidays. It could include fixing the price of gold at a specific price.
Banks have been prosecuted and found guilty of futures manipulation, particularly in the gold and silver markets. This artificial price volatility can and has discouraged investors from entering the market.
Physical demand is now much higher globally, with premiums skyrocketing across the entire supply chain.
