Gold silver and PM stocks staged a major breakout yesterday as the dollar cratered to signal the onset of a major devaluation as its loss of reserve currency status becomes a physical reality.

How long will he tilt at the inflationary windmill? A hawkish Fed has been the US dollar’s ally since tardily taking up the fight against the “transitory” inflation over a year ago. The June CPI report was yet another indication that the Fed is tardy once again,...

From the center of the continental United States to the middle of Australia is 9,241 miles. It’s a little further from London to Sydney—about 10,572 miles. But in economic matters—the laws of economics being both immutable and universal—the distances between the...
