On April 15, Americans face the deadline for sending to the federal Internal Revenue Service a report on all their income. Most Americans do this because failure to do so is likely to result in fines and possibly imprisonment. If one obstinately resists this, of course...
Could income taxes ever encourage someone to switch from a higher-paying to a lower-paying job? Perhaps surprisingly, the answer is yes. I have a recent example of this in my own family.

Oil is at $95.60. Up 33% since the war began. The Strait is mined. The blockade is in effect. Iran is threatening to close the Red Sea. Israel's Mossad chief just pledged more covert operations to topple Iran's government. The IAEA has been barred from Iran's nuclear...
Over the last year, the precious metal markets have seen historic increases and then decreases in price. This, of course, is the result of the workings of supply and demand, but there have also been cries of market manipulation.
Government is expensive, and America is running up the bill to the tune of $40 trillion. Every April, Americans are reminded of this basic truth. On April 15, the IRS forces citizens to confront what the government takes directly from their income.
Two successful professionals—one a semi-retired entrepreneur, the other a top attorney—both had the intelligence and capital to manage their own investments. Yet both watched their portfolios suffer devastating losses, despite doing everything conventional wisdom told them to do...

The past sessions brought exactly what we’ve been waiting for: follow-through, level-to-level movement and in some cases… clean execution of previously outlined scenarios. In other words - this wasn’t a guessing game - this was structure playing out. And today, instead...
The debt-funded conflict between the American and Iranian governments now features a blockade of Hormuz. This blockade moves physical war to the back burner (which will upset millions of chickenhawks around the world) and it moves stagflation to the front.
The recent pullback in gold equity prices may trigger more acquisitions. Junior exploration and development stocks experienced the largest share price declines in March relative to their intermediate and senior peers, and this may act as a near-term catalyst. G Mining...
In a rapidly shifting geopolitical environment, gold continues to demonstrate both its resilience and its complexity as a financial asset. In a recent episode of the Money Metals Podcast, host Mike Maharrey spoke with Joe Cavatoni, Market Strategist for North America...
The US Treasury Department last week released its monthly report on federal spending and revenue. March spending for the US federal government was up by more than $20 billion, or by nearly four percent, from March of last year. In spite of the administration’s claims...
The expected surge in prices due to the Iran War showed up in the March CPI data. However, it doesn't tell the real inflation story.
Gold's war driven drop was macro, not structural. And as oil rates in the dollar reverse, Deutsche Bank sees a rebound toward 5800 with the bull trend intact. That's number one. Deutsche Bank gold investors emerge from the war bunker. Their words, not ours. Targets 5,...

Gold should have at least one more significant low to make over the coming months. While the recovery over recent weeks from $4,100 to $4,800 has been impressive, our model says that the intermediate-term decline is not over, as strong support does not exist until the...
Matthew Piepenburg, Partner at VON GREYERZ, places rapidly changing and admittedly alarming headlines into sober perspective as to gold’s secular direction and role going forward. Focusing purely on the economics (rather than political or military guesswork) of the...
Apparently, the marketing displays (DAIRY AND EGGS) in retail grocery stores still have shoppers and consumers convinced that “eggs” are “dairy”. After several decades, why would they not believe it? It does not matter whether or not there was a purposeful intention...
After all the twists and turns of the past week, it turns out the Strait of Hormuz is still closed. Which means the economic damage is once again piling up by the hour.
Here are today's videos and charts.
April 12, 2026
With all the global uncertainty in play — from unrepayable debt and overvalued (understatement) equities, to stymied transport of the world’s economic engine (oil) and sorrowfully childish warring (“He bombed me, so I’m gonna bomb him!”) — the trading range of Gold,...
Central bank gold buying has slowed significantly in the last few months. However, analysts at Metals Focus think this is a temporary reaction to current factors and not the beginning of a new trend.
Recently, we’ve looked at the Dow Jones not just as a market indicator, but as an indicator for political, and global events. As far as using the Dow Jones as an indicator for the market, this week on Thursday and Friday’s close, it closed inside scoring position,...

Gold sector cycle is UP. Trend is up for USD and down for gold & gold stocks. Counter trend rally in progress.
On the heels of a credit outlook downgrade for New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani and the state legislature have just declared war on the financial center’s vibrant gold bullion market.
I’ve got a good story for the knuckleheads who run around claiming “gold is useless.” Yes, people really do say that. So, you’ve heard of people looking at the world through rose colored glasses? Well, when astronauts finally walk on the moon again, they’ll be looking...

After getting thrashed into mid-March, gold stocks have rebounded strongly in recent weeks. The timing of this sharp V-bounce dovetails perfectly with this sector’s usual spring rally. Gold stocks see their best seasonal outperformance to their metal from mid-March...
Gold’s 27% correction from January through March may be signaling something more important than a temporary pullback—it could mark the halfway point of the larger bull trend.
In this episode of the Money Metals Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey opens with a simple but effective point. People often give one reason for doing something, and that reason may be true, but it may not be the whole truth. He uses a personal childhood story to...
Unsurprisingly, given the significant price corrections in January and after the onset of the Iran conflict, significant amounts of metal flowed out of gold ETFs in March. However, it was a tale of regions, with North American funds accounting for the bulk of those...
Your dollar has lost 96-97 percent of its purchasing power since 1913. This is not bad luck or mysterious market forces. It is the result of deliberate policy choices that steadily, quietly drained your wealth—and convinced you it was being done for your benefit.
After the cease-fire collapsed in less than 24 hours, the markets are on the move again. No one seems to have any idea whether anything that either side involved in the Iran war says is true, or has even remotely happened.

We hit an ignominious milestone recently when the national debt crossed $39 trillion. Naturally, regular citizens have chimed in about what’s to blame, who’s at fault, what can be done, or whether it even matters.
