Peter's Blog

On Thursday, Peter joined Danny at CapitalCosm for an interview. They explore several timely financial topics, including the unprecedented highs in gold prices and the corresponding drops in fiat currencies. Peter critiques the Federal Reserve’s policies and how they fostered America’s dependency on debt and fiat money. They also discuss BRICS countries’ move away from […]

Gold’s phenomenal year so far is thanks in part to foreign central banks buying the yellow metal. With BRICS nations expanding their membership and growing in prestige, superpowers like China will likely turn to gold to escape the collapsing dollar.

Peter recently appeared on the Bald Guy Money show for a conversation on gold’s role in American and global politics, the influence of the BRICS coalition on metals markets, and, as always these days, the disastrous monetary policy coming out of the Fed.

Many people believe the growing influence of BRICS could ultimately dent Western economic power and undermine the dollar’s role as the world’s reserve currency. Many people frame the rise of BRICS as a battle between East and […]

The BRICS economic bloc announced it will add six new members, including Saudi Arabia. The growing influence of BRICS could ultimately dent Western economic power and undermine the dollar’s role as the world’s reserve currency. In this episode of the Friday Gold Wrap, host Mike Maharrey talks about the ramifications of BRICS expansion, de-dollarization, and […]

The sell-off in precious metals which started in late July continued this week, but its momentum slowed with silver even showing a modest gain on the week so far. In early European trading, gold was $1892, having traded down to $1885 yesterday, for a net fall of $19 on the week. Silver was $22.78 having […]

Globally, further falls in consumer price inflation are now unlikely and there are yet further interest rate increases to come. Bond yields are already on the rise, and a new phase of a banking crisis will be triggered. This article looks at the factors that have come together to drive interest rates higher, destabilising the […]
