Here is our weekly digest of the key news, market updates, charts and videos.
This week we brought you a series of short videos from an interview between Stephen Flood, CEO of GoldCore.com, and commodities trading expert Carley Garner.
We also broke the news regarding the Russian central bank's accelerated diversification out of the U.S. dollar and into gold.
The "scoop" quickly went mini-viral on Zerohedge and on many investment and gold websites and consequently on social media. Bloomberg and other mainstream media covered the important story the following day.
We have been getting some great feedback on our recently released Jim Rogers interview, which now has over 26,000 views, so why not check out some of our recent interviews this weekend.
