An economic war on savers is going to push gold prices much higher than $2,000 an ounce, according to Rick Rule, president of Sprott U.S. holdings.
In an interview with Kitco News on the sidelines of the Mines and Money Online Connect Global mining conference, the celebrated fund manager said that while he is no fan of the Federal Reserve, he sees that they are in an untenable position as they try to support the U.S. economy as it continues to feel the significant effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
