Well, this news happened a couple days ago but it’s still relevant today as things change before we know it!

News!

Currently in Florida, there is an open House seat in District 1. Trump backed candidate Jimmy Patronis wants the Sunshine State to adopt gold and silver as legal tender and has called for a study on the issue.

“Gold and silver have been trusted assets for thousands of years, and it makes perfect sense to use them as legal tender. I’m launching this study to determine the best way to get it done,” Patronis said in a statement included in a press release earlier this week.

Additional Info

Currently there are 11 states that use gold and silver coins as legal tender Utah being the first state to do so in 2011. This is a great shift we may see as states are either moving towards it or in talks of doing this. The positive for those who live in these states is the capital gains taxes would be eliminated on sales of gold and silver.

    “We believe that he’s using (auto tariffs) as a trade negotiation. The markets are jittery because nobody really knows what’s going to happen and what will come out in future,” Nicolas Lin, chairman and interim CEO of Aether Holdings.

    European stocks fell, with weakness in shares of Europe’s top carmakers such as Volkswagen down nearly 2%, while BMW lost almost 3% and Mercedes-Benz slid more than 4%.

    The dollar index, which measures the greenback against a basket of currencies, fell 0.2% to 104.43, with the euro up 0.24% at $1.0777.

    The Mexican peso weakened 0.82% versus the dollar at 20.288 while the Canadian dollar weakened 0.39% versus the greenback to C$1.43 per dollar as both countries are expected to be heavily impacted by the tariffs.
