Watching the progressive commentary over the @JoeSquawk - @PeteButtigieg spat is enlightening because it shows how little the left knows about economics, or understands economic history. Buttigieg is literally taking credit for bringing the RATE of inflation down by the end of the Biden presidency, ignoring the fact that he RATE hit 9% and prices remained elevated throughout the @JoeBiden years because of trillions of dollars in unnecessary fiscal stimulus and Fed money printing. Prices NEVER came down; it's one big reason @KamalaHarris lost (that plus the Dem Party believes men can be women and women men, but I'll save that for another posting). @realDonaldTrump inherited those elevated prices. He also grew the economy without a massive uptick in inflation. Ok the war will have an economic impact, but the people who think this guy "won" an argument about inflation really need to take econ 101. Also where was Pete during the supply-chain crisis? Paternity leave? What a joke

PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH: Trump Crushes Iranian Threat as Ceasefire Takes Hold thenevadaglobe.com/articles/…

BREAKING: Gold prices fall below $4,700/oz and silver prices fall below $73/oz after President Trump's speech on the Iran War.

🔥Gold is making history: Gold now makes up 24% of global central bank reserves, surpassing US Treasuries at 21% for the first time since the mid 1990s. This is a complete reversal from Q4 2015, when Treasuries made up 33% of reserves and gold just 9%. Gold as a % of central bank reserves has NEARLY tripled over the last decade, driven by both aggressive central bank purchases and surging gold prices. At the same time, central banks have steadily reduced their exposure to US government debt, driven by China. The shift signals a historic move away from Dollar-denominated assets as the global reserve system evolves. Gold is no longer an alternative reserve asset; it is now a major reserve asset.

🚨 The US Treasury announces a full audit of the nation’s gold reserves with a live stream of the vaults later today, headed by President Trump and his sugar Daddy, Elon Musk.

Gold is above $4,700. Since bottoming on March 23rd (my birthday), gold has rallied close to 15% in just over one week, finishing the quarter up about 7%. Despite today's rise, March was the worst month for gold since 2008. As a result, April may be gold's best month since 1980.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 US Treasury just bought back $15,000,000,000 of its own debt. This is the largest Treasury buyback in history.

🚨 SOMETHING REALLY BAD IS HAPPENING IN CHINA RIGHT NOW!! $1.4 TRILLION has just vanished from China’s balance sheet. $650B wiped from FX reserves $750B dumped from U.S. Treasuries Meanwhile, their gold holdings are rising every single day. They’re funneling every dollar into gold. That alone tells you everything. Gold is pumping again and this isn’t just “hype.” It’s a repricing of TRUST. This isn’t “diversification.” THIS IS STRATEGIC. Let’s break it down simply. Treasuries sit at the foundation of the dollar system. So when a giant like China keeps pulling back, the system must rebalance. And gold doesn’t move like this when things are stable. Gold moves first when TRUST starts cracking. China isn’t speaking. They’re signaling through capital flows. They’re done with paper promises. They’re choosing the one asset with zero counterparty risk. When the largest players shift like this, others follow. Markets don’t react early. They react AFTER the shift is obvious. Not through headlines. Through FLOWS. I’ve spent 10 years studying macro and called nearly every major top - including the October BTC ATH. Follow and turn on notifications. I’ll post the warning BEFORE it becomes public news.

Insiders are bullish on Silver. Insiders are buying silver options at $900 - $1,000 for December 2026. Silver is currently at $70, that means they are expect a 12X MINIMUM by the end of the year. What do they know?

🚨 WARNING: SOMETHING VERY UNUSUAL IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW!! Insiders are buying silver options at $900 - $1,000 for December 2026. Meanwhile, silver is sitting at ~$70. This means THEY EXPECT THE SILVER PRICE TO PUMP 1,300% THIS YEAR. And this is NOT just reckless gambling… Let me break it down simply: This positioning didn’t show up at the highs. It’s concentrated FAR out of the money. We’re talking 10–15x ABOVE the current price. That’s the part most people miss. Retail trades what’s in front of them. Smart money positions for what’s coming. Even with silver at ~$70… Open interest is HEAVILY stacked at the $900–$1,000 range. We’re talking tens of thousands of contracts clustered at the extreme end. And here’s what matters: Max pain sits way down near ~$300. Price is ~$70. But the biggest positioning is nearly 15x higher. That’s NOT normal. That’s not hedging. That’s not routine positioning. That’s a tail-risk bet on a full repricing of silver. Now connect the dots. No mainstream forecast is calling for $1,000 silver. Yet that’s exactly where size is building. That tells you everything. This is NOT positioning for a normal bull run. This is positioning for a monetary event, a system shock, or a market collapse. Any of these events will send silver into true price discovery. And the timing matters. This isn’t happening during peak hype. It’s building quietly, far from attention, while most people aren’t even looking. That one detail explains a lot. Because real money doesn’t chase narratives. It builds where disbelief is highest. So if you’re wondering what this means, it’s simple: Someone with serious capital is paying for EXTREME upside in silver - from $70 to $1000. That’s not speculation. That’s preparation. I’ve spent 10 years studying markets, and I’ve called most major tops and bottoms along the way. And I’ll call it again in 2026. Follow me and turn notifications on before it’s too late. Don’t become the exit liquidity.

In a debt crisis, your currency can be devalued overnight. Gold and silver can’t be printed into oblivion.
