Here are three Sunday Morning thoughts…
Sometimes these thoughts are on the economy, life, or hard assets.
If they’re helpful or hopeful to you, that’s great… Sometimes it just comes down to reality. That’s what I’m interested in…
So, here we go.
Here are three Sunday morning thoughts for you:
1. You know what all the Bitcoin Maximalists won’t admit right now? They’re eyeing up gold.
Gold prices are driving closer to the $3000 all-time high, while Bitcoin keeps going lower.
Even after Trump established the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve just a few days ago, Bitcoin is dropping.
And you know what?
Gold is looking damn good right now.
Investors are pouring into gold.
Physical gold, and gold funds like ETFs.
February had the largest 4-week inflow to gold funds on record.
The demand for physical gold is also at a record high.
Now we are just waiting for the gold and silver miners to take off.
They’re making serious profit margins, but it is not yet showing in stock prices.
2. Last year, the United States was headed in the direction of Germany, down. The US was spending just as much on social benefits as Germany, about 45% of their entire budget. US spending might be down but they are still printing their way to doom.
It’s a good thing that DOGE is here to set precedence on government spending…
Or at least establish some standard for fiscal sense.
If we were to look for a comparison of fiscal non-sense, Germany is probably the best example.
More than half of their budget is spent on social services.
Yet their economic productivity, output, and even their population are all way down.
The United States was headed in the same direction…
With all the DEI programs packed into the “other” category.
Some of the programs in the “other” category are cancelled now that Trump won the Presidency, but deficit spending is still moving forward… by the trillions!
3. Are we there yet? Take a look at the massive spread between commodities and the USD.
The last two times the USD and the Commodities to Equities ratio were spread this far apart, it was during the 1984 Plaza Accord and the 1999 Dot Com Bubble.
Except this time is different.
The spread is almost twice the distance.
All this means is that commodities prices will eventually go that much higher in the next few years.
See those spikes?
It’s all about gold, silver, and oil.
