At yesterday's U.S. House Agriculture Committee oversight hearing, Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Michael Selig pledged to assist efforts of members of Congress who recently introduced the SILVER Act.
With Gold having settled its week yesterday (Friday) at 4849, the compressing of range continues. Clearly during April, daily range has been narrowing.
While some stocks went up (especially in the Oil/Gas and Fertilizer/Ag sectors) and many went down during the worst of the war related headlines (and in software, the AI-mageddon hype), stocks in the Uranium sector maintained an orderly correction/consolidation that...
Not much has changed… and that in itself is the story. The dollar still struggles to regain strength, while gold and silver continue to hold near key resistance zones. That tells us one thing: the market hasn’t made a decision yet, but the pressure is building, and a...

Gold sector cycle is UP. Trend is up for USD and down for gold & gold stocks. Counter trend rally in progress.
Consumer spending is “under strain” according to a recent New York Times report. That’s bad news for an economy that depends on people buying stuff. We see this consumer strain reflected in the slowing growth of consumer debt.
If markets dropped 35% tomorrow, would you know exactly what to do? Most people wouldn't — but this rotation strategy has helped others dramatically limit those kinds of losses. See how it works while you still have time to act...

Gold remains really high despite March’s sharp correction, not far off January’s extraordinary records. So speculators’ capital firepower available for buying gold futures should have already been spent, largely tapped-out. Yet astonishingly specs’ upside bets have...
First, much of the gold supposedly backing America’s financial credibility may be lower-quality metal that does not meet modern international standards. Second, the silver market could be heading into even tighter supply conditions as a new disruption tied to China...
Yesterday was Tax Day. It’s a source of misery for many of us as we write a big check to the IRS. But did you know the IRS isn’t the source of your biggest tax bill? In fact, you don’t even get a bill. You just pay the tax every time you buy something.
At today’s U.S. House Agriculture Committee oversight hearing, Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Michael Selig today applauded – and pledged to assist the efforts by – two members of Congress who recently introduced the “System Integrity through...

Yesterday, I wrote that the relief rally was likely to reverse as the relief itself was an illusion. And it seems that most markets are already realizing that. Gold is down 0.29%. Silver is down 1.45%. Bitcoin is down 1.60%. Copper is down 0.61%. The dollar is up 0.23...
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.

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.

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.
