The Bureau of Labor Statistics has just released a statement: inflation rose to 8.5% in March over the last twelve months. A figure not reached since the records of the 1970s, and an increase that nothing seems to be able to stop.

The price of gold could then rise to $3000 an ounce while the gold/silver ratio collapses at the same time. For silver, this would mean significantly higher price gains in percentage terms; a doubling of the price within a few quarters is quite conceivable, says Newmeyer. For a time horizon of three...

Russia's central bank said that due to a "significant change in market conditions" it would buy gold from commercial banks at a negotiated price from April 8.

The decline in demand for the US currency is taking place at a time when the risks of the Fed's failure to combat inflation are threatening the intrinsic value of the dollar.
