Gold and Silver Keep Breaking Records… But Are We Still Early?
Gold has surged past $3,770 an ounce. Silver is trading at levels not seen since 2010. The financial media is treating it like a surprise. Analysts scramble for explanations, pointing to last week’s rate cut or softer inflation prints. But these moves didn’t trigger the rally. They simply gave the headlines something easy to print.

The suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show in the United States has set off predictable arguments about censorship and free speech.

It has been a consequential week for gold and silver. Prices reached fresh highs, yet the more instructive story sat beneath the tape.
