Are the headlines about Middle East energy chaos completely wrong? And how does the Iran vs. Israel conflict impact gold?
In today’s episode, we sit down with energy expert Anas Alhajji and World Gold Council strategist Joseph Cavatoni.
Alhajji exposes why Iran cannot truly “close” the Strait of Hormuz (80% of their own imports flow through it) while Cavatoni breaks down the 15-year central bank gold buying trend consuming 25%-30% of annual new gold production. You'll also discover why 83% of Gulf oil flows to Asia rather than the US, how America's energy independence has completely changed the geopolitical equation, and why Chinese and other foreign investors are driving gold prices more than Fed policy.
If you invest in energy stocks, precious metals, or just want to separate fact from fiction in today's volatile markets — this is essential listening.
