The disturbing thing about America’s Vietnam-style departure from Afghanistan is not that the Taliban are back in charge. If the 2001 invasion had never happened, they’d be in charge. And if the US had pulled out at any time in the intervening two decades they’d be in charge. So that was pretty much a done […]
After 50 Years Of Fiat Currency, Guess What Looks Good
Let’s start with a look at how the dollar has fared since the Federal Reserve gained control of it: Chain reaction A depreciating currency typically causes a chain reaction in which soaring debt leads to financial instability which in turn forces the central bank to intervene ever-more-aggressively to prevent an implosion.

Wall Street Journal Proves It Doesn’t Understand Gold
Gold bugs should never assume that the mainstream investing community actually understands finance. That includes the Wall Street Journal, which recently published an article (Gold as an Inflation Hedge: What the Past 50 Years Teaches Us) purporting to show that gold does not protect against a depreciating currency. The article begins with a couple of subheads… […]

Because Debt Slaves Don’t Have Enough Ways To Borrow…
This week, US household debt jumped by the most in 14 years to a new all-time record. The last time it did something like this was in 2007, just as the housing mania was cresting and the Great Recession was looming. The biggest part of the recent gain was from mortgages (it’s official, we’re in […]
“Creeping Fascism” Isn’t Creeping Any More
Would-be dictators aren’t letting the covid crisis go to waste. Instead, they’re using it as a pretext for sometimes shocking, sometimes silly impositions on what used to be seen as basic freedomes. Some examples, starting with this from Consent Factory’s CJ Hopkins: It’s August 2021, and Germany has officially banned anti-lockdown demonstrations. Other public assemblies, like […]

Michael Pento: The Fed Is Murdering The Markets And The Middle Class
From Michael Pento’s Pentonomics: The Fed’s manipulation of the money supply and its cost has served to obliterate the function of asset price discovery, just as it has also caused the middle and lower classes to reduce their standard of living. Since a greater percentage of their falling real incomes goes to the purchase of […]

Big Gold Miners To Buy Up Juniors At “Eye-Popping Multiples”
Last week, US-based miner Corvus Gold got an unsolicited, all-cash buyout offer from industry giant AngloGold Ashanti. The offer was about 20% higher than Corvus’ prior-day price but barely above its year-to-date high. In other words, reasonable but not aggressive.
