Gold in a Multipolar Currency Regime
For now, the U.S. dollar still reigns supreme as the world’s reserve currency. But cracks in this hegemony are widening, and in the wake of de-dollarization, there’s a golden opportunity for the yellow metal to re-emerge as a neutral global reserve asset in a multipolar currency regime.

Even the NYT Is Saying, “Buy Gold”
A recent piece in the New York Times encouraged readers to buy gold, noting its record-breaking run since 2020. However, what the article gets wrong is associating the phenomenon with presidential policies instead of central bank monetary policy. Treasury policies can contribute to money supply growth by issuing debt, and presidential policies can add fuel […]
