Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeeking Alpha reports gold futures are gaining as the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields turn lower. Skip Waverly is live outside a jewelry district vault.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSkip?
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentThanks, Hank! I'm outside a very closed vault, and the guard says gold is inside and I am not.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentSeeking Alpha says investors are reassessing the rate path.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentLower yields make gold more attractive, because it pays nothing, which is also my salary. That's the editor's angle, and honestly, mine too.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentI asked the guard for a peek at the bars. He gave me a look instead. It was not golden.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentIt was more of a beige of contempt.
Skip Waverly · Field CorrespondentAlso, a pigeon just walked past me like it owns the place. Nobody's ever stopped it from loitering. This could be my promotion story, Hank.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt is not, Skip. Thank you. Gold gains as the dollar and yields slip. Please step away from the pigeon.
