In 2021, The Economist ran an entire number hailing “The Return of Big Government” as the end of the so-called—but inexistent in practice—”austerity” paradigm and the evidence that more spending and a big state was the solution to the post-covid world, delivering...
The Chinese government has tried to internationalize the yuan and raise its stature as a global currency for decades. Hong Kong's ascension as a prominent yuan-denominated gold trading hub is giving that effort a big boost.
Yesterday's breakouts looked promising. Today's price action is raising a few uncomfortable questions. The U.S. dollar has already slipped back below its recently broken consolidation boundary, while copper buyers have once again failed to overcome an important...

Money continues to flow into sovereign bonds around the world… but what kind of money is it? First, it’s fiat money, and that’s a problem. Second, it’s money that’s aggressively leveraged by hedge funds, which is another big problem. Could the next global crisis be a...
The USD Index broke out to 102.59 on Monday, its highest level since April 2025, above the 102.50 level that capped it on October 5, 7, and 8. Gold settled $25.70 lower at $4,190.60, and it trades near $4,210 this morning as the dollar and oil ease. That leaves gold...
Gold and silver finally put a winning week on the board. But the more revealing development is what happened while prices were falling: investors poured billions into gold-backed funds, and China stepped up its purchases of physical gold.
When currency traders say they “smell financial cracks developing on both sides of the Atlantic,” they mean that both the U.S. dollar and the Euro are suffering from deep structural decay simultaneously. This situation introduces the risk of global currency devaluation...

Gold posted its first weekly gain after two weeks of losses, and so did silver, as markets now see almost no chance of a Federal Reserve rate hike in October and only a 25% chance in December. Holdings in gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) climbed to their highest level...
What a way to end last week. The dollar is pushing higher, but precious metals aren't exactly rolling over. In fact, several of them are attempting to reverse recent bearish technical developments. Gold has pushed through two resistance lines, silver has already...
The three most overinflated bubbles in history are all about to break at the same time. Stocks, primarily due to AI stocks, have never been priced so high above the stratosphere to where one analyst says they are clear up in the “thermosphere.” They are at a level...
Here are today's videos and charts.

The reality is what is being hidden is that we are starting to see somewhat of a negative correlation between gold and the stock market. We can see here since the beginning of the year when gold peaked right here. This is gold. This is a stock market.

What we could see in the coming weeks is a sharp short- term rally in Silver, coming from the aforementioned 34-day cycle, with resistance around the 34-day moving average, plus or minus. From there, a drop back to a lower low into late-October (or even early-November...
Gold and silver are finding their footing again. And while the markets have been rattled lately, the financial problems driving investors toward precious metals haven’t gone away.
When considering investing in anything it is very important to step back and gain a “Big Picture” perspective regarding where a security is in its “life cycle” because, like living things, they go through an establishment phase, a growth phase, the mature phase or...
But meantime… within these recent two months of precious metals’ negativity, at least Gold and Silver managed to record respective net gains since we last met.  Gold having settled yesterday (Friday) at 4220 was +1.2% (+48 points) for the week, whilst Silver closed its...
At the close of this week’s trading, the Dow Jones closed in scoring position; inside a range of BEVs, between -0.01% to -4.99%.  With a BEV of -4.84%, it did so, but just barely, and then only on Friday.  All other days of the week, the Dow Jones closed outside...

Gold sector cycle is down. Trend is up for gold & gold stocks, and for USD. Recovery rally rejected at resistance. Correction in progress.

October 9, 2026

Despite bullish stars aligning for gold, it has sold off on balance for six weeks now.  A sharp reversal from August’s blistering rally, this correction has shifted sentiment quite bearish.  Surging Fed-rate-hike odds and longer-bond yields have really weighed on gold...
Today’s pre-market trading looks like yesterday in a mirror. On Thursday morning, oil jumped, stocks fell, and silver fell with them. This morning, oil is lower, stock futures and copper are higher, and silver is up more than gold. Gold trades near $4,210, about $54...
The BEA’s annual revisions shaved a few tenths off the rate of inflation. But spending levels suggest the Fed’s fight is far from over.

If you want to know why central banks are stacking gold, ask a central banker. Last month, global gold reserves increased by another 39 tonnes, as central banks continued a buying spree that began several years ago. Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel said the move...

October 8, 2026

The best-performing precious metal for the past week was gold, but it was still down 3.46%. Gold extended its decline this week as investors continued to rotate out of non-yielding assets amid elevated Treasury yields and expectations for further Fed tightening. ETF...
It has been a long slog since the expected correction began (on the January 29th spike and reversal) from a strenuously overbought situation in the gold, and especially silver, market. That was the dumbest and most FOMO’ing at the mouth money surging into the market.
