Gold is a belief – Grant Williams

“Gold is a belief”

I gives me particular pleasure to welcome Grant Williams to this month’s interview. Grant has a great grasp of markets and always explains complex matters so that we all can understand them. He also is a wonderful individual and a good friend. This interview on the gold market is fascinating and really worth listening to.

Podcast interview: This month financial journalist Lars Schall talked with highly respected Singapore-based fund manager Grant Williams about, inter alia: the philosophy of gold and money; gold as “power money”; the bad effects of central bank interventions; the Swiss Goldinitiative; and the question whether gold will become the ultimate bubble in the future after the bubbles in bonds and equities will have popped.
