Seven Reasons Why Gold Will Run in 2021!
Seven Reasons Why Gold Will Run in 2021! Gold’s BULL RUN in the Post COVID Economy Call 1-(800) 892-0775 The World Has Been Forever Changed. “Covid-19 has disrupted our social and economic order at lightning speed and on a scale that we have not seen in living memory.” — Kristalina Georgieva - Managing Director of the IMF The notion that the U.S. economy, businesses, and households will return to normal in 2021 is not only wishful thinking, it reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of the degree of disruption caused by the economic and social events of 2020. The financial shock caused by COVID-19 was historic. The Federal Reserve printed massive amounts of money to support its deficit spending which included unprecedented securities purchases, loans to banks and corporations, small business assistance, and direct payments to American families. But millions remain unemployed, and experts suggest the recovery will be slower than previous downturns because the contraction of 2020 was unlike anything the U.S. or the world has ever seen. COVID-19 has driven global debt to record highs paralyzing economies across the globe. American households continue to grapple with unemployment, uncertainty, social distancing, shutdowns, and the struggles of remote learning. Experts predict that some U.S. jobs will never come back as various sectors of the economy have been forever changed. Inflation is also poised to return, and its effects could be exacerbated by a new President that plans to raise taxes and re-regulate the energy the labor sectors at a greater cost to consumers. And as lockdowns ease and the stay- at-home economy shifts, look for a massive economic disruption, as the most exuberant stock rally in history could finally tumble back down to earth.
