Gold Just Issued a Warning the Fed Can’t Ignore

Gold just broke above $5,100 — and almost no one is talking about it. While politicians argue over tariffs, the real story is accelerating stagflation. GDP growth collapsed from 4.4% to 1.4%. Core PCE inflation is rising again. The Fed is openly debating rate cuts while inflation runs 50% above target. This is not a […]

Risk-Off Rotation: Tech & Crypto Decline, Gold & Silver Shine

Wild week for precious metals: despite violent intraday swings, gold still closed up ~2.2% around $4,080 and silver up ~4.7% above $50—with silver briefly tagging $54+ overnight.
