In an event worthy of film, Donald Trump has survived an assassination attempt early this week. On July 13th, Trump was shot and wounded at a campaign rally. 20-year-old shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania was shot dead at the scene. Corey Comperatore, 50, a former chief of the Buffalo Township Volunteer Fire Company, was killed in the shooting, and two other people — David Dutch, 57, and James Copenhaver, 74 — were injured.

Since the news, Gold has soared; jumping from a low of $US2400 to a high of $US2481.

The ASX200 also jumped through the roof, bursting through its 8000 ceiling in the past 5 days.

These kind of pricing swings feel reminiscent of the last Trump election where Gold’s movements at the point of election results were massive. We’re anticipating a similar style of result this time around – where volatility in markets will be huge. To all the day traders out there… good luck.
