For a month which through the last dozen years hardly has been happy for Gold — and certainly century-to-date dreadful for the S&P 500 — let’s hear it here in this September of 2025 for All-Time Highs all ’round!  Whee-Heee!

As the de-dollarization movement continues, the latest development is that Hong Kong is moving to eliminate the use of dollars in its public square.

The market is already telling you what it wants to do. We have the USD Index that just moved to its early low and is starting to move back up. Let me write that again: the USD is refusing to move to new lows despite the change in Fed’s approach and focus on cutting...
