Gold bullish wedge breakout. $1700 next.

The system is bankrupt… The system is broken and bankrupt. This did not start now with the Coronavirus. It didn’t start in August and September (of 2019) when central banks said we would do everything we can with the Fed QE, repos and the ECB (European Central Bank) QE…

We were looking for the weak point in the mountain of debt that was growing year by year, with global public and private debt at about three times the world's GDP. What would cause a crisis, such as the subprime crisis in 2008? As we can see, it was a Black Swan, external to the economy, that tur...

I'm not sure how accurately the price of gold that I see on my screen reflects the actual demand. The gold market seems split at the moment. While the price is falling, meaning there are more sellers than buyers, everything I read on Twitter is that physical gold is nearly unobtainable.

Before I talk about markets and gold further on in this article, I will mention some of the horrific effects that are now hitting the world due to Coronavirus. Just to summarise that my market views haven’t changed. Stocks will go down by at least 90% from here and gold will surge to levels that...

In 15 days, the price of an ounce of gold in euros has risen from €1555 (first fixing on February 24 in London) to €1443 at the time of writing. With a low of €1437 per ounce, this represents a drop of 7.59%. And, since March 6, the price seems to have started to fall again. Should we be worried...

This is it! The party is over. The world is now facing the gravest economic and social downturn in Modern Times (18th century). We are now entering a period of global crisis that will change the world for a very long time to come.

The economy is being hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, the risk of recession is looming, and now the central banks are rushing in like a white knight!

In the short and medium term, the value of stocks, bonds and currencies should undergo a violent readjustment due to the explosion of the debt bubble, hang on to your precious metals, which conversely will be very strongly revalued upwards.

In order to provide ever more complete information on gold and silver prices, Goldbroker.com has recently deployed new charts and tables :

I am more bullish than ever on precious metals. Look at these charts - big picture, nothing has changed. The recent correction is clearly not a concern. What do you think will happen when the stimulus comes ?

I have been standing on a soap-box for almost 20 years endeavouring to explain the virtues of gold for wealth preservation purposes. Only a very small group has understood. The great majority will sadly learn their lesson the hard way.

Not content to have surpassed its all-time high from October 4, 2012 to the end of August, the euro-denominated ounce of gold has again made its mark.

In this insightful interview, Max Keiser and Egon von Greyerz talk about the 2010s as a decade of fantasy and decadence. The Dow/Gold ratio has now turned down and will crash 95% according to Egon. That takes the ratio back to a 1 to 1 level where it was in 1980 when the Dow was 850 and gold was...

There is a secret investment that virtually no investors are aware of. This is an investment that despite government manipulation and being besmirched by MSM still has outperformed all asset classes in this century.

Silver continues to put in a laggardly performance relative to gold, but this is not a cause for concern, it is normal at this stage in the cycle, and it gives would be investors in the sector more time to position themselves.

Here is a further illustration of the damage that zero rates cause to retail banking, in France and around the world. In 2000, when the Sino-British banking mastodon HSBC wanted to buy Crédit Commercial de France (CCF), it was in competition with the Dutch ING and had to put 11 billion euros on t...

The Gold/Silver ratio is doing exactly what you would want it to do if we're about to see a meaningful bull move at this stage.

On November 1, Christine Lagarde took over from Mario Draghi at the ECB, i.e. where the destruction of our currency is being implemented. What kind of policy can we expect from her, and what conclusions can we draw from it in terms of personal finances?

There are no safe assets. In 2002 we recommended our investors to hold up to 50% of their financial assets in physical gold. Today in 2020, I consider that up to 100% is the right figure since there are no safe assets except for physical precious metals.
