Jurrien Timmer, Fidelity’s man of the hour, is basically saying that gold and Bitcoin might be on a spending spree… and maybe they’ve gone a teensy bit overboard. 💍💰
One reason to contemplate ringing the golden bell (yes, literally like a gilded dinner bell for crypto millionaires) is that if gold is a play on US fiscal dominance, one could argue the party’s already crashed.
