Scenario 1: (Fed Cuts Rates)
If the Fed cuts rates now, they are choosing to save the stock market at the expense of the Dollar. In this environment, $XAU at $6,000 isn't just a target; it’s an inevitability. When real rates go negative, 'paper promises' vanish and hard assets are the only life raft left.
Scenario 2: (Fed Holds Rates)
Scenario 2 is the '2008 trap.' If the Fed holds rates and the market breaks, expect a temporary dip in Gold first. Big Money will sell their Gold 'paper' to cover margin calls on their crashing stocks. Don't mistake that forced liquidation for a trend reversal, it’s historically the ultimate 'buy the dip' moment before the real moonshot.
