The whole of French wealth owned by individuals totalled 5.233 Trillion euro at the third quarter of 2017, up 8.5% year-to-year. This is the equivalent of 178,200 euro of gross financial wealth per household. It means that French households were 15% richer than their German counterparts (107,700...

You’ve probably noticed that most European medias communicate the price of gold in US dollars. I find this quite curious, be it with the timing of the rallies and corrections or their magnitude, depending of the currency.

Strategic investments are made for the long run and with no intent of short term gains or concern of short term fluctuations. This kind of investing is based on buying undervalued and unloved assets and holding them for a very long term.

Gold is actually at a good point to turn up here, as it is close to a zone of support which is underpinned by the rising 200-day moving average in quite close proximity. This looks like a pretty good point to undertake more accumulation.

Silver appears to be in the very late stages of its Head-and-Shoulders bottom, and with the price still not far off the Right Shoulder lows, we are a very good point to continue accumulating silver investments – silver itself, silver coins, silver stocks and ETFs, and for those who are set up to...

As stated by La Tribune, “Emmanuel Macron wishes the implementation of the European Banking Union – a system for joint management of bank failures – to be finalised as soon as possible in order to draw lessons from the Euro zone’s debt crisis.” Well, alright, but why is it so urgent? Is the Frenc...

Gold in Venezuelan Bolivars moves up exponentially every week. The price has gone from VEF 200 to VEF 75 million in this century and that won’t be the end. We will see similar moves in all currencies in coming years including the Dollar, Euro, Pound, Yen etc.

A war with Iran would eliminate the largest non-USD oil exporter. One thing leads to another. The gold repatriations are a precursor to a currency war and armed conflict. That’s what drives US foreign policy.

As Dennis Gartman summarized in his Friday letter to clients, "at the current pace of sales, Venezuela will effectively be out of gold by May or June of next year. Having fallen from $21.3 billion seven years ago, it’s now down to $6.6 billion as of the end of January and we suspect that it’s sol...

Jeff Gundlach said that the next big move will likely be in gold prices which have broken their downtrend line, and are on the verge of breaking out to the upside. "It’s getting almost exciting... something big is happening,” he said cryptically.

The time to own physical gold and silver is today and not when they move to new highs. Both metals are at inflation adjusted historical lows and the downside risk is minimal. Also, they probably are the most undervalued of all assets currently.

A Bundesbank exhibit pays tribute to Germans' deep-seated love of the precious metal while honoring postwar economic prowess.

Amid the current events, it would be wrong to see the information that the Turkish Central Bank has repatriated its gold reserves stored earlier in the US Federal Reserve System as a mere coincidence.

Many banks are ailing in Europe, notably in Italy, Greece and Spain, but Deutsche Bank, sitting at the core of Europe’s largest and most competitive economy, is like an atomic bomb that could spark a worldwide financial crisis, just like Lehman Brothers did in the past. Even Mario Draghi, ordinar...

In addition to the insoluble economic and financial problems in the world, the geopolitical situation is now so serious that we might not need to worry about the economy.

For many years I have warned people about the coming risks and changes that the world will experience. Very few people are aware of these risks and even fewer understand them. In this piece, I will make an attempt to summarise what I see coming.

A major new silver bullmarket looks imminent that is expected to kick off with a dramatic spike, due to a wave of panic short covering.

Here’s new proof of the incompetence of French governments to manage the country’s debt. France issues 10% of its debt in inflation-indexed securities. This insane risk-taking will bring it to ruin if prices start to get into a skid.

It is certainly not a coincidence that this trade war started right before the oil trading in Yuan begun. Eventually this will lead to the demise of the dollar and a major power shift from West to East as well as much higher gold prices.

Gold bulls are finding 2018 offers plenty of reasons to be cheerful. Bullion’s wrapping up a third quarterly gain, a feat not seen since 2011.
