Inflation is likely to run well ahead of interest rates, like in the 1970s. This means that negative real interest rates will continue which is very beneficial for gold and silver.

The current silver price has nothing to do with supply and demand. In a real market the Price of Silver would be substantially higher. In a fake market, the manipulators have no problem to suppress the price by selling virtually unlimited fake paper silver.

Derivatives can only be netted down on the basis that counterparties pay up. But in a real systemic crisis, counterparties will disappear and gross exposure will remain gross.

Warren Buffett called derivatives financial weapons of mass destruction and he is absolutely right. Greedy bankers have now built derivatives to a self-destructive nuclear weapon. Archegos shows the world that an unknown smaller hedge fund can get credit lines of $30 billion or more that quickly lea...

Getting out of stocks and holding physical gold will not only be a seminal decision but it will also heed 2,500 years of wisdom that Confucius taught.

Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg look bluntly at the increasingly incontrovertible direction of rising inflation in concert with relatively lower yields, paving the way for longer term scenarios in which inflation rates outpace nominal yields—the ideal setting for precious metal strength.

I often hear complaints that gold is a useless investment since it doesn’t go up fast enough. Bitcoin and Tesla are much more exciting so why should an investor hold gold – an incredibly dull investment for the majority of people. If I tell investors that it is absolutely critical to hold gold for w...

With pressures on stocks and bonds, the precious metals are falling in sympathy as often is the case at the beginning of falling markets. I have been stating for 20 years, that fundamentally gold and silver are in a very strong uptrend, supported totally by central bank’s destruction of paper money....

Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg discuss the critical relationship between rising gold prices and negative real (inflation-adjusted) yields. Throughout the 20th century, whenever the rate of CPI inflation grossly outpaced Treasury yields, gold’s price saw dramatic climbs.

The secular bull market in stocks is very likely to finish in 2021. This turn could be at any time. Just like in 2000, it will all happen very quickly and this time it will be the start of a very long and vicious secular bear market. Real assets like gold, silver and platinum will be investors’ life...

When a world already in trouble was hit by a severe financial crisis in September 2019, the dose of debt was already excessive. But as the Fed and the ECB opened the money spigots fully, they filled the world with poisoned or fake money. The BY team (Biden & Yellen) will now be certain to finish thi...

Central banks will remain the best friend to precious metals, as the more fiat money they desperately create to “accommodate” broken debt markets, the greater the currency debasement and hence the more inevitable the price moves north in both gold and silver.

Egon discusses the declining purchasing power of the USD, the inevitable money creation foreseen by the Biden/Yellen duo, the interplay of inflationary and deflationary forces and the clear warning that too much debt and monetary support of the same, like too much of anything, is a toxic plan which...

Egon von Greyerz and Matthew Piepenburg discuss the “great inflation debate” and the ongoing as well as open secret of price manipulation in the paper gold & silver markets.

Egon von Greyerz discusses the impossibility of fair pricing in a distorted precious metals market with Max Keiser, of the Keiser Report.

As the price of the precious metals increase, there will be many new gold and silver “factories” popping up in China and many other countries in Asia. This will create a major supply of fake gold and silver from all parts of the world. These fake products will be distributed via the internet and als...

Even though gold has yielded an excellent return, it is what happens to the Dow/Gold ratio in the future that determines if investors should stay with stocks or hold gold.

If president Biden wants to save the US economy, his first measure should not be to print $trillions of worthless new money but instead tell his secretary of the treasury Janet Yellen to withdraw all debased currency from circulation just as Aristophanes suggested in 405BC, Copernicus in 1517 and Gr...

The state of the world necessitates holding gold as life insurance. Whether gold reaches $2,000, $20,000 or $200 trillion has nothing to do with the value of gold but all to do with a bankrupt financial system and worthless fiat currencies.

Gold and silver continue to be in correction mode. What caused the slump last Friday? Deception before the impending chaos in the U.S.? The correction is an opportunity, because the collapse can only be delayed with more trillions. Central banks inflate balance sheets and money supply, risks are neg...
