Great Bill Fleckenstein interview. Gold generates massive buzz. US growth subdued, Japan growth nonexistent. Lots of speculation about the end of the EU. UK in turmoil post-Brexit as Labour votes to oust leader, Boris Johnson drops out of PM race, and Nigel Farage leaves UKIP. Stocks recover worldwide as Brexit fears wane. Interest rates continue to fall while central banks consider deeper cuts. Clinton emails become serious issue after weekend FBI meeting.
