Talking Gold and Stocks With Scott Bauer and Ryan Detrick On Seeking Alpha Podcast

A special Alpha Trader this week features two guests: Prosper Trading’s Scott Bauer to talk about the gold market, and LPL Financial’s Ryan Detrick to talk about the never-say-die bull run in stocks.

Bauer is somewhat dour on the prospect for higher gold prices, but sees low-risk moneymaking opportunities in the options market for the metal.

The bull market has room to run, says Detrick, noting the last 10 years hasn’t been just one big move higher. There have been sizable corrections along the way, and certainly corrections to come in the future.
