Central banks…why bother? Inflation is here and it cannot be contained. US inflation is touching a 40-year high, the UK has hit the 40-year high, and the EU’s has already hit an all-time high. Figures of 8%, 9%, and 7% respectively are bad enough. This gives people strong enough reason to want to abolish central […]

Some of the bigger names include Zoom Video -75%, PayPal -73%, Netflix -72%, Meta Platforms (Facebook), -53%. The equity market decline is […]
‘In case of an emergency, you need physical gold and silver,’ so says this week’s guest on GoldCore TV, Lobo Tiggre of the Independent Speculator. With the Fed poised to raise interest rates and inflation hitting 8.5 %, the Biden administration is accusing the war of causing the inflation crisis rather than their own mismanagement […]
Gold and the US Federal Reserve have a love-hate relationship. Hate because they both enjoy it when the other one performs badly, but love it because the Fed owns over 8,000 tonnes of gold and would rather no one else had any. So it was a funny thing when a former Chair of the Federal […]
