Gold Creeps Above $1,300

Keep on ignoring the price of gold, at your own peril. One day soon, the price of gold is gonna hit you like a tonne of, err, gold bricks, leveling you flat onto the pavement like a piece of chewing gum stuck to the concrete.

In a most astute and glorious fashion, President Andrew Jackson’s bullion is soaring and ripping, and also creeping, above $1,300 for this first time since 2015.

If the good $20 general were here today he’d tell you two things.

1. I saved this rotten country from the fucking Brits in the War of 1812. Fuck with my portrait on the $20, and I’ll kill ya.

2. Fuck the Fed; but gold.

S&P futures are higher by 6. It looks like a higher open.
