“The gold vigilantes”
What the heck is a gold vigilante?
A “gold vigilante” (BTW this is the first time I’ve heard the term) is somebody who doesn’t buy the official happy talk that the scheme of nonstop money-printing, accounting shell games, and central bank mystery balance sheets is leading to a “V-shaped recovery” and the elimination of debt problems in Europe, and is buying gold in anticipation of currency collapse and hyperinflation.
