We are pleased to announce the issuance of a bond paying principal and interest in gold. The term is one year, and the interest rate on invested gold is 13%. According to company CEO Keith Weiner, Ph.D., it is the first proper gold bond in 87 years.

The thing that most likely raised quite a few eyebrows this week was – in addition to gold’s recent move by itself – the fact that gold rallied mostly without the dollar’s help. Yesterday (Jan. 5) I wrote that one swallow doesn’t make a summer and that a single...

In this article, I will explain why I own StrikePoint Gold Inc. (SKP:TSX.V; STKXF:OTCQB) and why I was happy to have the company on as a passive banner sponsor. My Case For StrikePoint Gold in Short:

As you know, the year 2020 saw some remarkable developments for the precious metals. The price of COMEX gold hit new all-time daily highs in August, and price finished at new quarterly highs in June, September, and December. But 2020 was not just about price alone....

In investing, as in life, perspective is everything. To some, gold at $1,525 as we started out 2020 seemed expensive. Today, it's trading at $1,940, producing a 27% gain.

We now have a very rare setup for gold which is in position to "go ballistic" as the dollar collapses. The dollar is being intentionally destroyed by the Fed, which is creating dollars in vast unprecedented quantities in order to buy up distressed assets on the...

The year 2020 was a solid year for gold, silver, and associated miners.The juniors were particularly impressive. The important weekly gold chart. It should be clear that the traditional Chinese New Year gold price rally is officially underway.

Gold ended 2020 at $1,891, partially thanks to monetary policy easing. In 2021, the Fed may not trigger a comparable rally in gold, but it should offer gold prices some support.

The best performing precious metal for 2020 was silver, up 47.86% as investment demand and the outlook for more solar power improved. Gold had its biggest annual advance since 2010, up 25.11%, after a tumultuous year that included four straight months of declines...

What is it with billionaires and gold? When billionaire Sam Zell warned at the end of December that the dollar’s status as the world’s principal reserve currency was in jeopardy, it nudged something in the back of the mind about the number of billionaires over the...

If global elites have their way, 2021 will be the year of the “Great Reset.” They believe now, after the coronavirus and lockdown policies have inflicted a heavy toll on the public, is the perfect opportunity to implement their technocratic vision.

Gold and silver continue to be bullish, the gold miners are mixed and bitcoin continues to outperform. Despite the unprecedented events of 2020 the precious metals have had a positive year, the pandemic brought volatility to the market with a sharp drop followed by...

The fate of the U.S. Dollar will weigh heavily on the future of the precious metals in 2021. At first glance, the USDX’s prospects look rather bleak in the first months of the year, but as the pages of the book turn, the dollar’s likely later ascension could prove...

2020 was a year of misery on a global scale as COVID19 turned our world upside down. 2021 looks like to be a year of recovery as vaccines are coming to the rescue. We were very fortunate to close out the year with good profits.

We now have a very rare setup for gold which is in position to “go ballistic” as the dollar collapses. The dollar is being intentionally destroyed by the Fed which is creating dollars in vast unprecedented quantities in order to buy up distressed assets on the cheap...

2020 came to a rather muddled up end, with the election still undecided and prices of gold and silver having spent nearly five months under tight control. The new year was barely one day old when the fireworks that rang out the old year were followed by fresh...

As I sat down in mid-December to formulate the draft outline for my 2021 Forecast Issue, I was immediately engulfed with a feeling of impending dread, not by way of dissatisfaction with the investments currently being held in my portfolio and trading accounts but by...

SPX Long-term trend: There is some good evidence that we are still in the bull market which started in 2009 and which could continue into the first quarter of 2021 before coming to an end. SPX Intermediate trend: New intermediate uptrend ending?

It should and will come as no surprise that fundamentals like valuation basics and sane credit levels have left the building (and securities markets) for some time. Today, we literally invest (i.e. buy and sell) in a veritable market Twilight Zone beyond sight,...

It’s no wonder so many people have been unable to attain proper market positioning in 2020. You invest with your heart, soul, fears or even sometimes your intellect and you risk blowing yourself up at worst, or missing out at best. For much of 2020 Twitter has been...
