In what turned out to be a surprising SFW podcast Future of Sex podcast[1] creator Bryony Cole joined us to talk about the future of sex, teledilonics and sex robots. Not content to let the media and the world stay squeamish about the topic of sex robots Cole expects many of us to have had sex with a robot by 2047 and believes many of our children will first experience sex with a robot before they attempt it with a human.

Cole is also running New York’s first Sextech Hackathon[2] on June 10, 2017, From 9:30am to 8pm, at the ThoughtWorks office, 99 Madison Ave, 15th floor. You can RSVP here[3].

A talking candidly about sex and tech is hard and Bryony made it all kinds of fun. Please do listen in.

Welcome to this week’s Market Wrap Podcast, I’m Mike Gleason.

Coming up David Morgan of The Morgan Report joins me for a terrific interview on counterparty risk and other dangers in today’s markets and also shares his thoughts on when he expects the metals to turn and what the smart money is already doing. Don’t miss a tremendous interview with the Silver Guru, David Morgan, coming up after this week’s market update.

Gold and silver markets extended their month-long rally earlier this week before giving back gains as former FBI Director James Comey testified on Thursday.

The Comey testimony largely failed to live up to the media hype. He called President Donald Trump a liar but didn’t drop any major bombshells that would enable Democrats to make the case for impeachment. The biggest impact of Comey’s remarks may have been that they refuted a barrage of conspiracy theories and fake news about President Donald Trump’s supposed Russia connections.

Impeachment is off the table, at least for now. But a future political crisis emanating from this White House can’t be ruled out – particularly given the nastiness and intensity of its opponents.

What would it mean for Wall Street and, more importantly, main street? Consider the recent history of presidents who have gotten themselves into trouble. Neither the resignation of Richard Nixon nor the impeachment of Bill Clinton caused the stock market to crash. Precious metals markets didn’t move much around these momentous political events, either.

President Nixon resigned on August 8, 1974 with gold trading at $152/oz. Gold began the year at $117 and finished at $195/oz. Nixon’s resignation occurred within a major year-long rally and doesn’t seem to have altered its trajectory.
