Thesis
Gold's record run has leaned on the hope that the Fed will cut rates soon — lower rates make non-interest-paying gold more attractive. Warsh's speech delivered the opposite message, and the fact that bond traders took him at his word means rate-cut expectations are getting repriced, not dismissed. A credible hawkish Fed chair is the single biggest headwind for gold at record prices. If the 20-day low breaks, the crowded long trade in gold and miners could unwind quickly.
