Gold Prices to Rise No Matter What the Fed Does

No matter what message the Fed conveys via its Monetary Policy Statement this week, it cannot help but to help gold. The Federal Reserve affects the price of gold for American investors via its impact to the U.S. dollar. It also impacts gold if it impacts riskier assets and capital flows to and from those assets and the safe haven asset in gold. The Fed could send either of two opposing messages to investors this week, but each should serve gold in one way or another. See why the Fed Cannot Help but to Help Gold this Week.
