GOLD BULL FROM 600 BC
How to understand this rocket up move in gold? Normal. Things in the gold market are absolutely normal. The Fed has lost control of the Gold market, which they had systematically supressed for years as the economy loaded up with mountains of debt. Every time they try to crash gold the central banks of the world stept in and buy. They just don't have the muscle to compete with that.
So gold is moving according to unrestricted market forces. Normal.
And old measures like COT releases and Elliot Waves and whatever bizarro trading methods you think can predict gold movements are all out the window. Because we are now in the End Game of fiat currency.
MMT - Modern Monetary Theory - which basically says that you can print as much money as you want to fund whatever you want was once a fringe left wing joke. Now it has been embraced by both parties. Print Print Print. That is the mantra of Republicans and Democrats alike. And Europeans. They're in the same boat with the Euro. As is Japan with the yen
It used to work better here because we had the world's reserve currency wherein we would print debt and the whole rest of the world would buy it thus subsidizing our profligacy. They needed it as a settlement currency for oil, and all other commodities.
But that game is rapidly eneding as the BRICS+ seek to aggressively de-dollarize. They have stopped buying our debt. In stead they buy GOLD. And they craft intercountry settlement agreements for commodities - and goods - that cut out the dollar. And Gold is the stabilizing currency behind other settlement currencies.
This is the NEW REALITY
And it is only just beginning. Becuase of the collassal stupidity of our politicians from both parties we are about to elect a president - no matter from which party - who has ZERO understanding of this new dynamic. They talk about Tarrifs and Sanctions. They talk about closing our borders and demonizing other countries. They talk about ending Global Trade. All of which causes the BRICS+ countries which accounts for 40 percent of GLobal GDP and a much higher percent of the Global Commodity Trade to DEDOLLARIZE at ever faster rates.
And as they dedollarize the Fed loses control - not only of the GOLD market - but much more importantly to the LONG END OF THE BOND MARKET.
When they cut - as they must - regardless of inflation because they have to bring down spriraling Debt Service costs - the long dated bond yeilds RISE. Not fall. Rise.
This is the ultimate catastrophe for the US economy.
If you don't understand this you really should do some work to understand it.
Because it is the key to everything that will follow.
Including the continued Ascendency of Gold.
It won't be straight up day after day. (today it's down big time - take advantage gold in on sale)
But it will be straight up Year after Year.
Until a new monetary system is agreed upon - Globally.
That will take a while.
A good long while.
Meanwhile the GOLD BULL WILL RAGE,
