Ireland’s Golden Moment, But What Comes Next?
This week’s Financial Times article on Ireland’s economic model struck a chord with us. It told a story we know well: a small nation punching far above its weight thanks to US multinationals, low corporate taxes, and a business-friendly ecosystem. Ireland transformed from post-crisis austerity to eye-watering surpluses. But as the FT soberly points out, […]
What Gold Reveals About the Federal Reserve and the Fragility of Modern Finance
This week, the Federal Reserve held interest rates unchanged for a fifth consecutive meeting. While the markets anticipated the decision, they reacted sharply to the nuance (If it can be called that) in Jerome Powell’s post-meeting remarks. Two Federal Open Market Committee members, Michelle Bowman and Christopher Waller, broke from consensus and called for rate […]
Speculative Frenzy and Stagflation: The Flight to Gold
If you believed the bond market was the only casualty of monetary excess, look at equity markets. The S&P 500 is flirting with record highs, yet the advance is precariously narrow. Valuations on megacap technology firms evoke memories of the dot‑com bubble, while underlying economic indicators flash amber. Margin debt, where money investors borrow against […]
Short-Term Politicians, Long-Term Lives: Why Gold Still Matters
In 44 BC, a Roman statesman named Cicero stood before the Senate and lamented a growing malaise in public life. “The budget should be balanced,” he argued. “The treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced… and the assistance to foreign lands curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.” You can almost hear him in committee […]
$40,000 Gold: The Final Reset Has Already Begun
In May 2025, a largely unnoticed update from the Federal Reserve offered a peculiar glimpse into a world that may soon be forced to choose between monetary orthodoxy and outright reinvention. Buried in a 202-page financial accounting manual was a technical procedure on how to monetize gold certificates held by the U.S. Treasury. To the […]
Simon Hunt on Geopolitics in Flux: The BRICS Challenge and America’s Strategic Desperation
If the Cold War was a grand chessboard, today’s geopolitics resemble something closer to a high-stakes game of Jenga: stacked with fragility, disguised as stability. In his recent interview with GoldCore TV, strategist Simon Hunt offers a view of the current global order that is not just provocative, but bracingly contrarian. According to Hunt, we […]
The Art of Prediction, the Folly of Certainty, and the Case for Gold
This week I found myself once again sharpening the pencil, staring into the foggy crystal ball, and submitting forecasts for the Reuters Precious Metals Survey. It’s a peculiar exercise, this act of prediction, especially in the world of gold. The survey invites industry participants to project where the prices of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium […]
Silver’s Signal: Why This Spike Feels Different
Every so often, silver jolts the market out of complacency. It did so in 1980, again in 2011, and now, yet again, in 2025. Prices recently surged to just under $39 per ounce, their highest since 2011. But if we’re to believe this is just a technical rally or meme-driven flash, we may be missing […]
Silver Is Signaling Something Bigger
Silver is on the move again. Yesterday, it climbed 1.6 percent to just under $39 an ounce, the highest price we’ve seen since September 2011. That sort of jump catches attention, but it’s not just about headlines or technical levels. It’s about what silver is trying to tell us. In today’s GoldCoreTV video, we’ve brought […]
