China isn’t just buying gold anymore. It’s offering to hold the world’s reserves in Shanghai and Hong Kong, giving central banks an alternative to London and New York.

Gold and Silver Keep Breaking Records… But Are We Still Early?
Gold has surged past $3,770 an ounce. Silver is trading at levels not seen since 2010. The financial media is treating it like a surprise.

He and several Trump advisers, including Kevin Warsh and […]
BRICS vs the Dollar: What’s Really Happening Behind the Headlines
Introduction: Cutting Through the Hype Every few months, the same headline makes the rounds: “BRICS to Launch a New Currency, Dollar Doomed.” The problem is, reality is never that simple.
