GOLD WILL BENEFIT FROM US FEDERAL RESERVE INTEREST RATE CUT

August 1, 2019, Boulder, CO – Glint Pay Inc. (Glint), weighs in on the news regarding the US Fed’s interest rate cut.

“The Fed’s decision to cut its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points, to 2.25% – the first cut it’s made since December 2008, when the Great Recession was getting going – is a clear sign that US interest rates are going to stay way below their pre-crisis levels of 4% to 5%, for years to come. And that in turn is one of the clearest signs that we are facing a significant gold bull run, also for years to come,” said Jason Cozens, CEO of Glint, which launched its debit Mastercard in the USA this week. Cozens added that “there obviously will be ups and downs for the gold price in the coming months, as speculative investors choose to take profits. But the combination of an inevitably weaker US dollar and considerable geopolitical uncertainty mean that the price trend is firmly up.”

The Federal Open Market Committee since the end of 2015 made nine increases to the federal funds rate. President Donald Trump has pressed the Federal Reserve to make a rate cut and said this week that he would “like to see a large cut and I would like to see immediately the quantitative tightening stop.”
