Gold is up 3% in August after increasing 5.7% in July, its biggest monthly gain since March. Silver is also up 4.6% this month, recovering from its dip in June and July. On Friday, speaking at the Federal Reserve’s annual conference, Chairman Jerome Powell said “the time has come” for an interest rate cut as inflation nears the Fed’s 2% target. Fed rate cut anticipation for September has been ongoing all summer, but the recent statements have boosted sentiment with a new fervor. Safe haven buying due to geopolitical conflict in Europe and the Middle East has also helped to keep gold prices steady at the highs this year. While Powell did not specify how much the Fed plans to cut rates next month, about 65.5% of investors tracked by the CME FedWatch Tool expect a 25 basis point cut, while the rest anticipate a 50 basis point cut.  Rate cuts are typically bullish for gold, which means these last weeks of summer may be your last chance to obtain gold at current price levels. After the interest rate cut cycle kicks off, we expect gold spot prices to take off if historical patterns are any indication. The time to act is now.

Gold Krugerrands at an extremely attractive premium... comparable or even lower than you can obtain bars these days!
