    3. The Worst Thing You Can Do With Insurance Is Trying To Time It

    The Worst Thing You Can Do With Insurance Is Trying To Time It

    Published by Fabrice Drouin Ristori | Apr 25, 2020 | 4732

    My selection of tweets of the week: paper gold derivatives, stock market, gold as insurance...

     

    When you think about it the monetary domain is probably the worst sector in terms of improvement in the last century.

    I think the CME might have no other choice but to close out the ETFs positions. It cannot take the risk to have negative prices before the roll and be on the hook. This shock is real. Be very careful out there. We are going to hear about crazy losses in the days and weeks to come
