This week we wrote an article titled UBS CREDIT SUISSE ”NOT A BAILOUT” DEAL: FOLLOW THE MONEY, NOT THEIR WORDS. Last night the Fed said it would continue QT (reducing their balance sheet). Its not the first time they’ve said one thing and done another…

Despite the head winds of higher rates and a higher USD, gold is performing admirably.
