As the European Central Bank raised its interest rate by 50 basis points on July 21 in line with the U.S. Fed and the Bank of England, the price of gold in the London Bullion Market Association fell to USD 1,700 per ounce. Recession danger is rising as more rate increases are anticipated. Changing consumer and equity market conditions are reflected in declining physical and exchange-traded fund demand for gold. Desert Gold Ventures CEO Jared Scharf explains us his view.

    "[...] We quickly learned that the tailings are high-grade, often as high as 20 grams of gold per tonne; because they are produced by artisanal miners, local miners who use outdated technology for gold production. [...]" Ryan Jackson, CEO, Newlox Gold Ventures Corp.

    In the current rising inflation, what advantage can Desert Gold Ventures offer its investors and what is the distinguishing factors that separate the company from its peers?

    'Traditionally gold has performed as a hedge against inflation but also as a safe haven during times on extreme market volatility and uncertainty like we are in today. Generally speaking, gold equities like Desert Gold are a proxy to the gold price and react exponentially both to the upside and downside.

    If you think we are at or near a bottom in gold now is the time to seriously look at investments in gold equities. Desert Gold’s stands out from its peers due to our regional SMSZ Project 440km2 land package. From an investment perspective we are trading at a deep discount to our peers from a market/oz gold basis.

    Also, if you look at the way we spend our investors dollars, Desert Gold has by far one of the lowest, if not the lowest, discovery cost per oz gold.'
    Jared Scharf, CEO, Desert Gold Ventures Inc.

    Gold to USD 3,000? Barrick Gold and Desert Gold profit. What is going on at Vonovia?

    Will the price of gold rise to USD 3,000 per ounce before the end of the year? That is what investment professional Leigh Goehring thinks is possible. He is a managing director at Goehring & Rozencwajg, manages a commodity fund, among other things, and expects a "decade of inflation." If the forecast comes true, gold stocks will at least be an attractive portfolio addition. In addition to industry heavyweights like Barrick Gold, explorers can be worthwhile as leverage to the gold price. One such explorer is Desert Gold. The share of the Canadian company reacted yesterday with a price jump of over 10% to a project update. In contrast, the outlook for "concrete gold" remains challenging. Vonovia, for example, was once again downgraded by analysts despite the significant share price losses of recent months. At the same time, there are also positive comments.

    On March 22, all eyes were on the FED decision. Will the balancing act between fighting inflation and stabilizing the banking system succeed? The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the difficulties of Credit Suisse have caused plenty of uncertainty. The result has been significant premiums in the price of gold and cryptocurrencies as people try to protect their money. But regardless of the interest rate decision, there is interesting news on companies that have been under pressure recently and are waiting for a turnaround. We take a look at three of those candidates today.

    Central bankers are currently in a huge dilemma. They should fight the price pressure with a tough interest rate policy and gradual withdrawal of liquidity. However, this increases the existing risk of recession and the danger of a new financial crisis worldwide. In fact, past interest rate restrictions have already left grinding marks in the US banking system because gigantic write-downs on price losses still lie dormant in the books of institutions that had believed in eternally low interest rates. After the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the forced takeover of Credit Suisse, uncertainty has again taken a stranglehold on the markets. Gold and silver reacted with a giant leap. We look at the current situation.
