Radical Appeal for More EU Stupidity |
The rise of far-right and far-left parties across Europe is directly related to calls for “more Europe”.
Yet, French president Emmanuel Macron makes a Radical Appeal for a More Powerful EU.
Bold Actions
Macron seeks “bold” actions. He wants an EU “military intervention force”, a common budget, carbon taxes, national conventions to discuss the future of Europe, trade prosecutors to enforce countries to stick with the rules, and a Franco-German cooperation treaty,

Gold Market in H1 |
A lot happened in the first half of the year. Among many important events, Trump was nominated as POTUS, the Fed hiked its interest rates twice and announced plan to unwind its massive balance sheet, and a few important elections were held in Europe, with Macron taking over French politics. How did gold perform in that interesting period?
