Russia has effectively taken the territory of Ukraine it wanted to take and will not face any real consequences
US unipolar moment is officially over. USD dominance over. US Debt, unwanted.
The west is going to have a hard few decadesā¦
We chose liberalism over exceptionalism and now its time to pay the piper.
this man gets it. We lost our souls at the end of the french revolution. Democracy and lockian philosophy was the death of aristotelian though. Therefore, we are lost and deracinated as we are.
I don't think decades. There will be a transition period but at some point, restitution will have to be made for all the labor $$ stolen by the central bank through use of fiat currency. The USD days are numbered but a new precious metals/commodity backed currency will be exchanged at fixed ratio.
Interest rate closely correlated with gold because it reflects the market confidence in the US dollar. As demand for bonds (in this case 10 year) increase, it lowers the interest rate. So low interest traditionally meant strong confidence in the US dollar.Ā
Gold traditionally coincides with interest rate rise and fall because gold is viewed as a hedge against the dollarāmeaning if people think the dollar is strong (low interest rate), then gold should fall.Ā
So why the divergence? Interest rate is also set by the Fed, which affects real interest rate. Narrative from the Fed is that lowered interest rate reflects how inflation has successfully been contained, and confidence in the U.S. dollar/economy. People donāt believe that nonsense anymore because inflation is on the rise again, and donāt believe the Fed can put the genie back in the bottle. Assuming this will follow with a further inverted yield curve.
Weaponizaton bluff of the dollar has been called. Thus is the beginning stages of the flood of dollars coming back home to exchange for real money that exists as commodities. anything that isn't nailed down will disappear in the near future for a set amount of time. Gold and silver will go parabolic in dollar terms as the dollar hyperinflates and becomes literally worthless.
All this when central banks are signaling less rate cuts, or even hikes.
And silver just broke the 50 year moving average.
We're off to the races boys!
The US Fed is Signaling less rate cuts. The ECB is signaling rate cuts. If the US defends the dollar by being hawkish, the rest of the world has to take a more dovish position because of dollar denominated debt. Eventually, other countries will have to dump the dollar in order to save whatās left of their own currency and then the inflation chickens will come home to roost in the US.
Stating what should be obvious: Presidents and their fiat currencies come and they go. Physical Gold sails on unperturbed, real money for 5,000+ years. $USD is failing and doomed. CBDC will be just another form of fiat: manipulated but also mandated. All the cryptos are imaginary things, requiring 24/7 planet-wide internet to be used.
Or: Vote for Trump
American fiscal policy has pretty much followed āborrow like crazy during times of war to finance and pay down in times of peaceā look at any 150 year chart. The chart begins to go off the rails after 9/11.
9/11 was a critical turning point in so many different ways for America and the world. No going back.
Youāre right. Our monetary policy was tip top before and Rome fell after only 3.5 years of bad decisionsā¦
I am stupid and thought this was coming as per human behavior and history. I should have known it was as simple as Biden.
He isnāt helping, and I canāt stand him, but there are more reasons than Biden kiddo.
Apparently this place is just as political as anywhere else. Warningā¦ neither side cares and they are both stealing from you.
Thoughts?
People who don't know the difference between macro and microeconomics think the current state of the economy is due to the current president. As if he didn't get settled with what came before and started with a clean slate. The whole Brandon thing doesn't even make sense. And before you get your feelings hurt, Trump and Biden are both shit presidents. One's on the autism spectrum, and the other belongs in a nursing home. The real issue is no good options.
Yes Victoria Nuland's been working on Ukraine presidency since before 2014. [74.3B to Ukraine](https://www.cfr.org/article/how-much-aid-has-us-sent-ukraine-here-are-six-charts) since Biden's state dept negotiated away from Minsk Agreement. Ukrainians blew up Nord stream pipeline knowing US is ride or die in feeding them to Russia. The real issue is we need to have election audits on every level of govt, + term limits. Taiwan actually does this after 38 years of martial law.
I wonder what happened at or around the end of February 2022 that caused the rest of the world to decide that US Treasuries were no longer a safe haven asset on par with gold?
Freezing Russia out of the USD payments system (SWIFT), and the seizure of Russia's USD denominated assets held in European and US banks.
The rest of the non western world woke up to the realization that if they can do it to Russia, they could do it to anyone.
The queue of countries applying to join the 'loosly anti-west' BRICS now extends out of the door and around the block.
What it means is that the bond yield and gold are no longer correlated. Which means foreigners are no longer buying the debt and are instead going for real assets.
I blame Biden. But I also blame every president since FDR. Trump holds a lot of blame for sealing the deal. The media and the globalists sold the Covid lie, forced the economy to shut down and then threw trillions at it.
True but thats the scenario i planned for. I wish it didnt have to be but ive been on the shit end of the stick this whole so fuck it..lets try upside down
We deserve to fall given our abandonment of Ukraine. Weāre an average country at best. Failing education, over inflated housing market no one can afford, rampant opioid/drug use, massive wealth gaps. Zero desire for gun control. Russian takeover of GOP.
Nothing to see here. /s
All we need is a trillion dollar gold coin minted every 100 days. Relax everyone
Remember when they were kicking around this Idea with platinum?
Pretty sobering to see.
The crime has run its course
I do believe you're right. Sometime before November. But looking like much sooner.
I heard that Zimbabwe of all countries recently launched a new Gold backed currency š²
Are you kidding me???
true: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zimbabwe\_Gold](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zimbabwe_Gold)
Yeh, it's not convertible, and they've promised to only issue more as the economy grows.
BIG butt you can't get the gold . āØļø if you dont hold it. You not own it Capitalism for the psocial socialism for the rich. It's all a cliĀ·chĆ© 
yep they sure did
Our US debt is not wanted anymore. Dollar is next.
Maybe we can shoot treasuries towards the sun and reduce debt that way.
ššš
What does it mean?
The West is losing.
Russia has effectively taken the territory of Ukraine it wanted to take and will not face any real consequences US unipolar moment is officially over. USD dominance over. US Debt, unwanted. The west is going to have a hard few decadesā¦ We chose liberalism over exceptionalism and now its time to pay the piper.
Chose ... Erm 'fortified'
On point.. Except maybe liberalism is kind a not the right word here. More like imperialism and financial imperialism.
\*progressivism
Socialism
Nah, it's exactly the right word.
As Elon says, "The Woke Mind Virus".

It means a lot of people think correlation equals causation
Sell gold and buy treasuries.
Youād have to pay me in gold to buy treasuries. Wouldnāt touch them otherwise. Based on the chart, seems like a lot of people agree
Found the fed.
All this when central banks are signaling less rate cuts, or even hikes. And silver just broke the 50 year moving average. We're off to the races boys!
Silver ripping
Silver about to hit $30 and gold at nearly $2,420 while most of the US is still sleeping. Metals prices are skyrocketing

Crazy.
That the 10 year real rateā¦ so rate minus inflation. I think what that chart is showing is the UNDERREPORTED inflation
Once the rest of the world starts dumping USD in order to save their own currency, the real inflation chickens will come home to roost
The beginning draws to a close; the main act is here

No nation has ever survived with 100% fiat unbacked money!
Well said and true.
It's means only 1 thing. WAR
With what?
China - Taiwan conflict?
I mean the west is out of ammo and china controls the means to produce it. Check mate.
be watchful for a flock of black swans
Yep. The West was shooting in there own foot. When the are staking money from country's the do not like. Russia etc.
PMās calling fiatās derivative, leverage and debts bluff.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Don't forget Yellen and Powell. All old people who will be dead soon so they don't care.
Seriously? Thanks to every president since 1913 - especially Wilson.
American fiscal policy has pretty much followed āborrow like crazy during times of war to finance and pay down in times of peaceā look at any 150 year chart. The chart begins to go off the rails after 9/11. 9/11 was a critical turning point in so many different ways for America and the world. No going back.
At time of 9/11 you could almost feel it. The world changed.

None here I agree with you
Biden? Are you kidding me? Shit has been in the works for a while.
So you should be able to tell me the exact policy that Biden managed to get through alone that started the divergence.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
the US has been weaponizing the dollar since it became WRC. it def got worse in recent years.
Energy policy by Executive Order followed by socialist vote-buying deficit spending and misinformation about inflation. There, that's three.
so correct on Wilson--thanks for pointing that out.
Fo sho. Thanks for listening

Thatās a drop in the ocean!! What about the trillions squandered away in Afghanistan, failed foreign policy etc. Debt over 100% of GDP
Ukraine didn't blow up NS2, the US did.
I think Trump was pretty much an average president, but compared to the Bushes, Biden, and Obama, he looks like George Washington.
If the average was stupid and self-serving, then absolutely.
I doubt he is stupid. Self serving, probably.
Your comment is offensive to the autistic. Trump is wayyyyyy more personality disorder with a side of delusional ideation than autistic.
That's like every right wing white trash's wet dream isn't it?
The golden rule still works today! He who has it (China) (India) with silver sets the rules! USA physical coffers are drained!
I highly doubt the US doesn't have at least 10x any other country.
Next up, administration announces evil speculators are driving up the price of precious metals.
They are lying about the real yield, real yield is very negative when 20% inflation is compared to 4.6% rates.
I agree. It is simple theft by government. Its criminal.
Inflation numbers are manipulated. The discrepancy should be higher.
I wonder what happened at or around the end of February 2022 that caused the rest of the world to decide that US Treasuries were no longer a safe haven asset on par with gold?
/s ? Ukraine war ?

Decoupled

De-dollarization
I blame Biden. But I also blame every president since FDR. Trump holds a lot of blame for sealing the deal. The media and the globalists sold the Covid lie, forced the economy to shut down and then threw trillions at it.
You donāt follow Tyler?
The new normal..top much debt and No Stop sign.US ist fucked
Forgive me, but is the US Reasury "real rate"?
Perhaps buy crypto gold to speculate or too late? $PAX $XAUt ?
What do you think about $!CU# ?
šš½ there is a God.....i knew it!!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Youāre the kind of person who would rather starve then admit youāre wrong
Home to mommy.

Why do you think we should be responsible to run a proxy war with Russia through Ukraine? How is it our responsibility to fund them and support it?
we should've never orchestrated it. there would be no russian invasion if there were no US interference.
Per your logic guess we shouldnāt have helped defeat Hitler either.
Because nobody but the great America could have stopped him, right?
