When Europe Went Dark, Gold Still Worked | A Lesson in Real Resilience
At 12:35 pm this week, major parts of Europe came to a standstill. Power gone. Trains frozen. Payments offline. Communications… silent. Spain, Portugal, parts of France—suddenly and without warning—were reminded of something we too often forget: the modern world depends entirely on systems that can fail. This wasn’t just a blackout. It was a stress […]
The King’s Gambit: Trump, the Dollar, and the Coming Collapse
In August 1971, President Richard Nixon appeared on television, flanked by American flags, and calmly told the world he was “temporarily” closing the gold window. It sounded procedural, almost dull. A housekeeping matter. Behind the scenes, Treasury Secretary John Connally, who famously quipped “the dollar is our currency, but your problem”, knew it was anything […]
Gold Didn’t Peak. It Sent a Signal.
When gold hit $3,500, the world blinked. Then shrugged. A spike, a pullback — business as usual? Not quite. This wasn’t just another gold rally. It was a moment of clarity — a jolt that revealed just how fragile the global financial architecture has become. Gold didn’t move because it got stronger. It moved because […]

Who Really Owns Central Bank Gold Reserves?
With gold holding firm around $3,000 an ounce—even amid solid selling pressure and sharp market volatility—questions about central bank gold reserves are more relevant than ever. As the global economy reels from President Trump’s sweeping import tariffs, fears of a broader trade war have triggered market deleveraging. Yet gold continues to find support, thanks in […]
The End of the Petrodollar Era: Trump’s Trade War and the Twilight of American Exorbitance
The Grey Dawn of 1974: A Secret Mission The grey, damp dawn of July 1974 mirrored the mood aboard the 8am flight departing Andrews Air Force Base. William Simon, America’s new Treasury Secretary, and his deputy, Gerry Parsky, carried the weight of a nation in crisis. The official story spoke of economic diplomacy, a standard […]
Trump’s Tariffs Just Put the Dollar in Danger – Here’s Why Gold Wins
The press called it “sweeping.” Economists called it “reckless.” Markets called it something unprintable. But former President Trump called it liberation. His latest policy announcement—an all-out trade offensive laced with tariffs up to 50%—may have sounded like more political theatre. But behind the slogans and spectacle lies something more strategic. Or perhaps more dangerous. Maybe even […]
