President Trump renewed his attack on Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell Thursday for not cutting interest rates, even as Trump’s own trade war makes rate cuts more difficult. source

It is no secret governments around the world seek to destroy their own currencies with the concern of psychopaths when it comes to how this will affect the citizens. Destroying the purchasing power of the dollar will bring unimaginable suffering as inflation destroys lives, breaks up families, and decimates the middle class.

The end game is openly to eliminate the paper dollar system and the privacy it represents and use the misery that it causes as a means to force Americans into a surveillance monetary technology that substitutes digital credit for money.

As I unfold this report today, it is important to understand that the dollar could begin to strengthen by raising rates and reducing spending (debt creation). After the pain of creating a stronger dollar eases, a return to commodities back, monetary system could be begin the ending the system of debt-based piracy that has crippled the USA since 1913.

Today’s Report From An Austrian Economics POV

Amidst a financial landscape saturated by alarming debt levels and perturbing inflation, the towering presence of precious metals remains a north star to those averse to the cyclical tempests of fiat currencies. Gold’s relentless climb, now surpassing the $3300 mark, is more reflective of market trepidation than mere asset appreciation—a veritable canary in the coal mine signaling monetary disquiet.

Near-Term Juxtapositions and the Inevitabilities of Long-Term Outcomes

In the immediate future, precious metal prices will likely react reflexively to hindrances such as trade policies, monetary tightening, and geopolitical unrest. In Silver’s case, the rumblings of a ‘SilverSqueeze-2.0’ suggest both speculative fervor and a deeper recognition of its essential role in the industrial and monetary domains. Meanwhile, platinum and palladium confront their own unique confluence of factors, including trade exclusions from tariffs and industry usage trends.

It is our believe that Silver suffers from 24-7 price rigging, while most believe there are more than 300 paper ounces (fake) to each physical (real) ounce that exists. It is my conclusion that Silver is the Most Undervalued Monetary Asset on Earth.  Currently the number of ounces of silver needed to purchase an ounce of gold is over 102 and heading for stars. This represents a severe monetary distortion only possible through price fixing.

This now brings us to the long-range vista that Austrian Economics views through the prism of praxeology, where the discernible reality is one of value-preserving investments. It is no coincidence that as the U.S. debt clock operates with alarming alacrity, the citadel of precious metals draws a legion of investors who recognize the insidious erosion of fiat currency’s purchasing power.

The Digital Currency Frontline: Crypto’s Crescendo Amid Fiscal Fiascos

The digital currency domain, led by Bitcoin and peers, continues its trajectory toward integration and normalization. Yet, these assets are not bereft of the volatility and unpredictability they claim to surmount. As bastions of philosophical adherence to decentralization and self-sovereignty, cryptocurrencies stand as testaments to the marketplace’s yearning for an alternative monetary system—one devoid of the heavy hand of centralized financial arbiters.

Nevertheless, much like the commodities they side with, digital currencies find themselves at the mercy of regulatory crosshairs and market dramatics. This encapsulates a paradox of monetary evolution that Austrian Economics is watching closely.

Fiscal Fecklessness and the Consequences of Political Hubris

The political sphere holds considerable sway over market dynamics, as well as illustrated by the fluctuating premiums of New York precious metals and the shifting sands of Systematic Investments’ strategies. The U.S.-China trade saga continues to puzzle and perturb, with precious metals benefiting from these less-than-mercantile maneuvers. Exclusion from Trump’s recalcitrant tariffs reflects a dichotomy between political gamesmanship and the realities of market forces.

The Path Forward: Bridging Ideological Rigor with Pragmatic Strategy

With the looming specter of a fragile equity market supported by quantitative easing and historically low interest rates, it is paramount to prioritize the parsimonious management of sovereign debt and the restoration of policies that encourage sound money. Austrian Economics warns against the distortive effects of interventionism, preferring instead market-driven solutions that advocate for competitive currencies, whether metallic or cryptographic.

Market segments bear the imprint of prevailing uncertainties, with traditional investment vehicles losing luster to the more stable alternatives of precious metals and, to a lesser extent, cryptocurrencies. Echoing the wisdom of Rand and Hayek, we must heed a strategy of diversification that leans heavily on tangible assets—assets that provide a bulwark against the tempests of inflation and the debilitation of debt.

In this era of economic unease, the ultimate truth remains: the preservation of value and wealth transcends the illusions of ephemeral gains. As such, the ascent of gold and its kin serve as a constant reminder to enact tempered, judicious measures designed for preservation and thrivability in an environment of fiscal uncertainty and monetary metamorphosis.
