Gold Reasserts Lead Over Bitcoin as Top Hedge
Watch Scarlet and Paul LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.

The crypto crowd has long claimed their investment shares gold’s appeal - a hedge against fiat debasement and inflation - only newer, shinier, and flashier. That thesis has come under serious pressure in macro markets: Year-to-date, gold is up more than 50%, while Bitcoin is down roughly 7%.- Sam Fazeli, Bloomberg Intelligence, Director of Research for Global Industries and Senior Pharmaceuticals, discusses how a pill version of Novo Nordisk's Ozempic failed to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in a pair of long-shot studies that aimed to open up a new use for blockbuster obesity drugs.-Matthew Schettenhelm, Bloomberg Intelligence Media Litigation Analyst, discusses how for Nexstar, Sinclair and other US media broadcasters, a key opportunity is being pursued in the easing of US regulations on owning TV and radio stations.
