John Rubino: The Silver Bull Market Will Be Totally Spectacular

The case for owning precious metals is easy to make, especially silver. According to financial writer John Rubino, it now takes 100 ounces of silver to equal the value of 1 ounce of gold. That’s a near record of 100 to 1 silver/gold ratio. 

Rubino contends, “The silver/gold ratio says silver is clearly a buy based on historical trends and the relationship between gold and silver.

You would expect silver going forward to outperform gold, and you would expect gold to go up as well.

This is now a bull market, and they will both go up, but silver will outperform gold.

There is just so much more debt in the world, and there is so much more of a need for safe haven assets that you would expect silver to blow right through its previous high levels. 

This time around, it could be totally spectacular with what happens with silver. There is going to come a time when everyone will want to talk about silver, but that day is not yet.”

Peter Schiff: Buy Gold and Silver Now before It’s Too Late

Money printing by the Fed and Congress is off the charts. This is why money manager Peter Schiff thinks precious metals are a no-brainer investment. 

Schiff says, “It’s not that gold is gaining in value, it’s that fiat currencies are all losing value. 

Gold is the one stable factor. It’s the one thing governments can’t create out of thin air. Every currency in the world, except the dollar, are hitting new record lows against gold. You need more Euros, Rands or Aussie dollars to buy an ounce of gold.

The U.S. dollar is losing value more slowly, but this is going to change. We are going to win the race to the bottom.

People need to convert their dollars now into gold or silver. If you think the price of gold is going up now, wait til the dollar is the weakest of the currencies.

That’s going to accelerate the appreciation of gold and that’s going to put gold in the spotlight as the replacement to the U.S. dollar as the main reserve asset for global central banks.”

Two French kids reportedly discover gold bars worth over $100,000 during lockdown

Two French kids reportedly stumbled upon more than $100,000 worth of gold while they were in coronavirus lockdown.

According to local media, the children — both around 10 years old — made the discovery when their family went to stay with an older relative in the French town of Vendome after lockdown measures were enforced in March.

A few days after their arrival, they decided to build a fort, BFM TV reported, which led them to search for objects they could use around the house. During the search, the children found the two gold bars wrapped up in old sheets.

Until he saw the bars, the children’s father thought they had found his mother’s antique knife holders, according to BFM.

But when he saw the bars, which weighed around a kilogram each, he contacted local auctioneers who confirmed that they were gold bullion.

The bars are set to be auctioned off at Rouillac auction house in Vendome on June 16. Reportedly worth just over 100,000 euros ($108,979) combined, the bars are estimated to fetch at least 80,000 euros at auction.

Philippe Rouillac, an auctioneer at the organization, told BFM the bars had been bought by the children’s grandmother in 1967 but had been lost since then.

“We are going to wait for gold prices to rise a little more,” he said. He added that at the start of 2020, each bar would be worth around 43,000 euros, but by June, their value could rise to 54,000 euros.

Bo Polny: The Coming Gold Rush Will Be Epic, Like Never Before Seen

Cycle expert and financial analyst BoPolny thinks the stock market will have another leg down to “around 15,000 on the DOW, if not lower, by June of 2021.” 

Polny also says, “The markets are finished. We have only seen the start of a recession, and the next thing coming is a worldwide depression. So, what we have seen in the markets is only a warmup. 

We are in a recession going into a depression. This is the third seal of revelation which is a rebalancing of the financial system as we know it. 

The rebalancing specifically relates to gold, silver and paper. The world has been using a paper based monetary system that is, in essence, backed by nothing. 

You might want to say it is backed by good faith and confidence, but I don’t see much faith and confidence in this world anymore. We are going to have a gold rush, and it is going to be epic.”

Global Economic Depression And Why Another $500 Surge In The Price Of Gold Will Surprise Investors

During the Great Depression, stocks lost 90 percent of their value, people lost savings and jobs. Today there are a record 33 million jobless Americans, double the 15 million jobless in the Thirties or 25 percent of the population then. And today, there are long food lines that rival those of the Great Depression. Yet looking at the stock market and its robust snapback rally, the juxtaposition between the comeback and an economy in freefall is contradictory. Of interest is that at the onset of the Great Depression, stocks actually rallied 50 percent, before losing 90 percent of their value three years later. And, looking for clues about the future from the bond market is futile given the Fed’s dominant presence. While there are similarities, they are differences.

Yet few are putting forward the consequences of the inexorable rise in debt to save the world and fewer are looking at a “never normal” future.

As the world spirals into the worst crisis since the Great Depression, the Fed and Congress have bailed out everyone and everything in conjunction with a “whatever it takes” fiscal policy to keep the economy from seizing up. Desperate times call for desperate measures. However, the grievous economic costs keep piling up. Indeed the economy has rightly been considered “essential”, and to “flatten” the curve, the cure might kill the patient. To replace their zombie economies, the world’s central banks have injected trillions of bridge financing to replace the fallout in demand. In the United States, because of the escalating cost, they are set to borrow a record $4.5 trillion, with much of the debt monetized through the printing press. The Fed has not only pledged to buy more government debt but also riskier high yield corporate debt in a move to drive rates lower and save America’s economy. However, in opening the flood gates, the extraordinary multitrillion dollar bailouts estimated at 15 percent of GDP, eclipses World War II levels. Worse, the trillions are meant to buy time, but the lack of a treatment or a vaccine means that the virus could outlast the bailouts.

Misplaced Optimism

The robust fiscal response has seen a rebound in stocks on optimistic hopes of a V-shaped recovery although much of the economy is repressed by the countrywide lockdown. Everyone wants to go back to normal. However, in the longer term are economic, financial and social consequences and worries. Even before the pandemic, debt at $25 trillion was at near record levels. Still to come is the red ink hangover from contagious corporate defaults, real estate implosions and bailouts.

On average the government borrows about 2 percent of GDP each year, however the Congressional Budget Office projects a $4 trillion budgetary deficit even before the fourth relief bailout package, on pace to eclipse the biggest shortfall in US history. Fed borrowings alone could be as high as 10 times equivalent to more than 20 percent of the size of the US economy but manageable because of record low rates. The IMF has estimated that US public sector debt will grow exponentially from 5.8 percent of national income to 15.4 percent this year and net public debt alone will rise from 85 percent to 107 percent, exceeding the level in 1986. They are not alone. France, the UK and Spain will also have debt at more than 100 percent GDP. The amounts are staggering and larger than the economic output of most countries, eclipsing soon the expenditures of the last war. Debt is growing faster than the economy, and that is just for this year, raising the spectre of a new form of contagion…

Michael Pento: How to Know the Perfect Time to Invest in Gold

Master portfolio hedging strategist Michael Pento returns to Reluctant Preppers to weigh in on the tumultuous times we are weathering. 

Michael calls out the corner the central banks have painted us into, dooming the lower class to dependency, eviscerating the middle class, and skimming off unprecedented spoils for the elite. Michael further outlines the successful strategy he follows to thrive despite the volatility, and gives us some cogent insight on why the banks know well that cash and gold impose a check and balance to their otherwise unbridled dominance over the rights and financial well-being of ordinary people, and guidance on what we can do now to protect our futures.
