The charts that matter: gold dips after Buffett buys in
Warren Buffett bought into gold's bull market just as the price slipped again. Here's how the charts that matter most to the global economy reacted.
In this week’s issue of MoneyWeek, Jonathan Compton looks at how farming currently works (hint: its business model is unsustainable) and how it might look in the future as the global population gets richer and diets change; farmers respond to an increasing number of environmental challenges; and the “eye-watering” level of subsidies inevitably fall. He picks the best ways to invest in the farms of the future. It’s well worth a read – so if you’re not already a subscriber, get your first six issues free here now.
In the latest podcast, John talks to Helen Thomas of BlondeMoney, one of the most astute political analysts I know, about V-shaped disappointments and the “velocity of people”, and why Donald Trump could spring a surprise come November’s presidential elections. Don’t miss this one – you can listen here (or wherever you get your podcasts).
