Rick Rieder highlights the economic policy state-of-play today, and where it may lead to should economic growth falter, productivity not materialize, and populism continue to thrive. The major global central banks continue to draw bigger guns in their battle against deflation, yet in some places, it appears to be of no avail. The fact is that the share of sovereign yields that are in negative territory keeps increasing and the average level of these interest rates becomes eve

Are you aware of: (Executive Order 6102) & (The Gold Reserve Act) ​ Today, they might call it a "National Restoration" or "Patriotic Solvency" Soon, your government will pass an "Act" like they did in 1841... or invoke an Executive Order as was done in 1933 (Executive Order #6102) ... or simply issue a mandate to the Secretary of the Treasury (which they did in 1971). When Roosevelt signed Proclamation 2039 in 1933, with one stroke of his pen, FDR shuttered every bank in Am

When people are having a harder time paying their bills, that is a signal that the economy is slowing down. This is something that we witnessed back in 2008, and it is something that is happening once again right now. Credit card charge-offs at major U.S. banks haven’t been this high since the U.S. economy was pulling out of the last recession, and the same thing is true regarding credit card delinquencies. So even though the mainstream media keeps telling us over and over

Financial writer and precious metals expert Bill Holter is “not worried at all” about the current price smash down for precious metals. Holter says, “We live in a world where all liabilities are more than all liabilities in history. "This whole system is going to come down. . . If you see a house burn down, the only thing left is the foundation. That’s the only thing left because the foundation doesn’t burn. That’s what gold and silver are, and that’s what’s going to be left

Authored by José Antonio Ocampo, formerly United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs, via Project Syndicate, This year, the world commemorates the anniversaries of two key events in the development of the global monetary system. The first is the creation of the International Monetary Fund at the Bretton Woods conference 75 years ago. The second is the advent, 50 years ago, of the Special Drawing Right (SDR), the IMF’s global reserve asset. When it

- MMT: Modern monetary madness and pet economists - Can this really be a thing? Actually printing money as an economic policy? - Begin structuring portfolios and lives to avoid being in a tunnel with an oncoming train More than 10 years ago some Australian readers begin regaling me with the ideas of economist Bill Mitchell of the University of Newcastle in New South Wales. He was teaching about something he called (and he coined the term) Modern Monetary Theory. I

Here’s when you know that you’ve made it into popular culture… It’s when you get credit for a great quote, but no one really knows who said it first. If there’s any doubt, people’s go-to list is usually either Albert Einstein, Mark Twain or the former New York Yankees catcher, Yogi Berra. For example, there’s the quote, “predictions are hard, especially about the future,” which is often attributed to Berra. And “compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world,” attributed

Sales of Silver Eagles continue to be strong as demand for the official coins surged in February. Moreover, as the Authorized purchases of Silver Eagles jumped by 775,000 oz this past Thursday, the U.S. Mint issued a temporary suspension of sales until inventories can be restocked. This is a very positive sign as total Silver Eagle sales last year fell to low of 15.7 million, down more than 50%, compared to the 37.7 million set in 2016. According to the U.S. Mint’s most recen

The US bullion Depositary was specifically created in 1936 to house the 1933 gold confiscated from American citizens so the government could print more money! There has been skepticism about the contents of the depository since 1953 and that skepticism has never been truly satisfied. It is crystal clear to me that the nations gold reserve cold storage assets have NEVER been properly inventoried, 100% weighed and most importantly 100% assayed to validate its content and purity

Last week the markets rallied on hype and hope of a potential trade deal between the US and China… and the fact it was options expiration week. With those items out of the way, the markets will now begin to adjust to economic realities again. Those economic realities? That the global economy is slowing… and not a little. Indeed, the latest spate of economic data indicates just had bad things are getting. Japan’s core machine orders for the month of September was expected to d

Gerald says “when everything goes bad, have guns, gold and a getaway plan”.

Recent downturns in gold prices and silver prices have spurred a dramatic increase in both old and new bullion buyers snapping up physical precious metals at perceived low valuations. For many decades now, the US Mint American Silver Eagle coin has remained the #1 choice for most physical silver bullion buyers worldwide. In terms of annual sales volumes and total US dollars sold versus other silver bullion government mint and private mint competitors, the 1 oz American Silver

The trend is your friend and in this case, the trend comes tinged with a yellowish hue. As I have been highlighting recently, Central Banks around the world are finally waking up the the harsh reality that is our current geopolitical and financial situation. On the surface, things appear to be healthy, things appear to be running along smoothly, but as soon as you scrap even an inch below the surface, and look at the skyrocketing debt levels and increased fragility of many We
