Gold's resistance, which prevented any monthly close above $1,995, was breached, closing at $2,035 on Thursday 30 November. Taking advantage of the gold rally, the silver price broke through the oblique resistance that has held it up since its 2011 high.

After falling into the mid-$1,800s this fall, the Gold price has taken off and is once again threatening its All Time High. With all eyes on Gold, Silver is quietly flying under the radar as it usually does prior to big advances.

In the United States, real estate is no longer a safe haven due to the stagnation of the real estate market and the absence of investment incentives. In China, the growing disinterest in real estate has also changed savers' behaviour towards gold.

The world is now witnessing the end of a currency and financial system which the Chinese already forecast in 1971 after Nixon closed the gold window. Again, remember von Mises words: “There is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion.”History tells us that...

Even if the situation regarding private debt is not problematic at the moment, 2024 is likely to be a very different story: the wall of private debt is much harder to break through than the wall of public debt. These U.S. debt risks are the main reasons why gold prices are so high. The closer we get...

Tavi Costa warns of the coming hard landing and breaks down a number of key charts that reveal the real state of the U.S. economy. Costa also gives his gold price forecast, adding that big hedge funds are about to flock back to the precious metals space.

Piepenburg addresses what he perceives as the misleading debate surrounding hard versus soft landings, asserting that the evidence of a severe economic downturn is unmistakably apparent. The conversation then turns to the reality rather than hype of de-dollarization, the questioned performance of go...

The hope of a "pivot" by the Fed curbed the appreciation of the dollar, which had just set an all-time record against the Japanese yen. The depreciation of the dollar is benefiting the gold price, which is once again approaching its $2,000 resistance level.

In addition to its representation in various holy places in the form of different objects, gold is also the subject of numerous traditions. Here, we take a brief look at its place in various civilizations and religious currents.

This week, I'd like to look at some big picture charts of gold and silver fractals. I'm dedicating this week's analysis especially to those who believe that technical analysis works only on smaller time frames to see if these charts might make you reconsider.

Rising interest rates have led to a significant increase in the burden of public debt. The United States now has to pay over $1 trillion in interest, an amount that has doubled in just nine months. This burden is set to rise considerably further, as most of the debt is short-term, requiring refinanc...

China topped up its gold holdings for a 12th straight month in October, adding to a wave of purchases by global central banks that’s lent support to bullion prices.

Is the price of gold linked to other markets? Conversely, is the price of gold independent of market trends? This question is all the more important as gold is often perceived as a "safe-haven" asset, capable of behaving independently of other markets. In this paper, we will focus on the short-term,...

Despite the recent push toward new highs, gold remains severely under-allocated in investment portfolios.

We are on the inevitable road to perdition for the world economy & financial system, ending in a potential global conflict of uncontrollable proportions. Evil begets evil as The Cycle of Evil hits countries at the end of an uncontrollable debt expansion.

Far removed from the turmoil of the bond markets, gold continues to move ahead without the slightest speculative excess, and in a climate of general indifference.The price of gold in yens is now rising exponentially, just as it would against any currency of a country in a sovereign crisis.

Escalating geopolitical tensions and the risk of aggravation in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are adding new challenges to a fragmented world. The international economic and financial system can only emerge from this situation weaker, as inflation persists and growth remains weak....

This week we will look at the performance of gold compared to the United States financial sector. When this relationship is rising, it can be said that investors are showing a preference for hard money. When it is falling, investors are showing more confidence in the paper money system.

Increasingly, countries are beginning to openly express their intentions to strategically explore using gold as a medium of exchange in the coming years. The Malaysian government is now considering using the gold dinar as a reserve currency to reduce dependence on the US dollar.

The relationship between gold and real rates broke down when real rates turned positive again. What counts now is the search for solvency, not the search for yield. The return of investment takes precedence over return on investment.
