11:12p ET Thursday, July 25, 2019
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
In his new essay, "The Reasoning Behind Gold's Breakout," GoldMoney research director Alasdair Macleod delightfully explodes eight of the common myths about gold, myths tightly held by investment fund managers:
-- Gold is no longer money.
-- Gold doesn't pay interest.
-- Gold is expensive to store and insure.

-- Gold has no intrinsic value.
-- Gold has no use beyond looking pretty.
-- Gold is volatile.
-- Gold is a "greater fool" investment.
-- Gold's value was higher 40 years ago in real terms.
Macleod concludes: "With governments everywhere itching to increase spending without raising taxes and as the global economy sinks into a trade and credit-cycle-induced recession, budget deficits will fuel monetary inflation at a faster pace than seen before. Relearning that gold is sound money is now the most urgent priority for all those charged with responsibility for other people's investments."
