Nothing Makes Sense Anymore (Here’s Why)
We seem to be drifting in a strange calm. Gold has circled around the $3,350 level for three months, silver has held in a narrow band, and traders now wait (at the time of writing) for Jerome Powell’s Jackson Hole remarks to provide direction. A single dovish word could send the dollar lower and real […]
Gold Confiscation Risk: The Real Truth
Gold prices edged higher this morning, with December futures trading around $3,384 per ounce and silver near $38. Investor attention is fixed on Jackson Hole, where Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is expected to signal whether U.S. rates could be cut in September. Global markets remain cautious, with equities subdued and bond markets stabilised following […]
Political Shocks and the Fault Lines in Gold’s Paper Market
When a bureaucratic letter from US Customs and a four-word social media post from President Trump can shake one of the deepest commodity markets in the world, the real lesson is not in the headlines. It is in the plumbing. Late last week, the global gold market experienced a momentary rupture that should trouble anyone […]
The Gold Revaluation Debate Is Not About Gold. It’s About Credibility
We’ve been asked recently to give our thoughts on the growing chatter around gold revaluation, especially following a new publication by the U.S. Federal Reserve that explores how other nations have used reserve revaluation to shore up public finances.

Avoiding Mistakes in a Complicated World

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 […]
$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 […]
Financial Fragility and the Coming Inflationary Supercycle
The debate over whether central banks have lost control is no longer academic. For Simon Hunt, it is a foregone conclusion. In his recent interview with Dave Russell on GoldCoreTV, the veteran strategist lays out a case that is part data-driven critique, part existential warning. What he outlines is not just a broken economic model, […]
