Miles Franklin
The 150 or so people attending Miles Franklin’s “Q&A Rap Session” in Chicago Friday night saw me, working on 2½ hours of sleep, get choked up when describing the importance of BrExit; which last month, I deemed “the most important – and Precious Metals bullish – election in history.” And not just because in my view, it was history’s most globally relevant act of political defiance – in that 7.3 billion people will all be affected by the votes of a mere 30 million; but that it was done despite a manically intense “anti-leave” propaganda and market manipulation campaign. And equally importantly, my fervent belief that it marked the beginning of the end of the gold Cartel. I’ll get to the former topic momentarily; but first, given that my principal focus, as Marketing Director of one of the nation’s largest bullion dealers, is Precious Metals, I’ll discuss the latter.
