The Dow/Gold ratio is currently trading near an historically significant level near the 1929 high. We can see that price has fallen through that level 3 times in history, and when it has, the drop has been dramatic with an 87% decline after 1929, a 92% decline from 1972-1980 and a 59% decline fro...

In this 48-minute discussion, Ronni and Egon cover various topics, including the evolution of gold versus Bitcoin, predictions for rising gold prices, central banks' reserve shifts, and global economic risks.

For the third year running, our forecasts for the price of gold have come true. While a sharp fall in the gold price seems unlikely in 2025, attention is now focused on the intensity of the trend.

The question of the timing of the next rise in the gold price remains uncertain: at what point will a market crash, worsening household fragility or increased pressure on the banking system prompt the authorities to make a decisive pivot in monetary policy to avoid a systemic recession?

This 32-minute discussion between Grant Williams and me covers my 55-year professional journey from banking in Switzerland, building and running a major UK FTSE 100 company (DIXONS), and setting up a major business in wealth preservation based on physical gold.     In the interview...

Saxo Bank announced its annual Outrageous Predictions for 2025: improbable yet underestimated scenarios that could disrupt markets, politics, and technology worldwide.

With $2 trillion in bonds, notes and bills maturing in 2025, plus another $2 trillion in annual budget deficits, gross financing needs total $4 trillion. The need to finance such a large amount of new debt is the main argument supporting the forecast of a rise in the price of gold in 2025.

As 2024 draws to a close, we'll take a look this week at long term annual and quarterly silver charts that look incredibly optimistic for 2025 and beyond.

Central bank purchases of physical gold, as well as tensions on the silver market, are taking place against a backdrop of general indifference on the part of Western investors.

A very interesting review by Éric Dor, chief economist at IESEG, summarising the exposure of French and European banks to France's debt. French banks are naturally in first place, with very high levels of exposure.

Silver is woefully behind gold. Its price is expected to see a meteoric rise in Q1.

Europe’s economic situation is a matter of growing concern. Once a symbol of prosperity and cooperation, the European Union is now weakened by major economic and energy challenges. The continent’s two traditional pillars, France and Germany, are facing difficulties that could have profound reperc...

Judy Shelton is advocating for a Treasury instrument that includes the gold convertibility of the dollar upon maturity. She recently tweeted about a proposal for a 50-year Treasury bond, convertible into gold, to be issued at the initiative of President Trump on July 4, 2026.

Trumponomics promises economic recovery and renewed influence for the United States. But Trump cannot reverse the course of history. And this is happening without American power. Rising inflation and a Fed caught in a dilemma, unsustainable debt, increased economic polarization and geopolitical t...

Physical gold naturally appears to be the preferred safe-haven investment in the face of the deficit-financing impasse. It is benefiting from both growing concerns about the worsening of this deficit and the potential repercussions for US Treasuries. The latter could be amplified by rising tensio...

France, Italy, Japan and the United States all have high budget deficits of comparable magnitude, accompanied by significant public debt in excess of 100% of GDP. However, taking a step back and integrating other macroeconomic financial data, the levels of risk differ greatly, to the detriment of...
