“We will see over the years the dollar absolutely collapse against the one currency that does not represent anyone else’s sovereignty…and that is gold,” says Dr. Thomas Kaplan, CEO and Chairman of NovaGold. In today’s interview, he tells Daniela Cambone that all fiat currencies are inherently flawed and refers to the U.S. dollar as “double-ply toilet tissue.”
Gold at $3,000? Try $10,000
Despite recent price increases, Kaplan believes gold is still in the “foothills” of a broader bull run. “We will look back on $3,000 gold as a complete gift… the same way as we look back now on the Dow at 3,000 in the late ’80s as a gift,” he says. On the recent ECB’s warning about gold, Kaplan sees it as further support for the bullish case. He emphasizes that the rising demand for physical settlement—not just futures contracts—could create a supply squeeze and trigger a major price surge.
