Another Bell Ringing

Betting market odds now overwhelmingly see it happening this year:

The big jump occurred ahead of a potential IPO for SpaceX – which now has the twist of its merger with Musk’s xAI.

During the dotcom boom, the AOL/TimeWarner merger marked a near-perfect peak for tech stocks. AI investors should be wary about this merger and potential public IPO later this year.

But we’re not there yet! Still plenty of room for the crack-up to boom in this terrifying bull.

P.S. Markets appear concerned about Kevin Warsh, President Trump’s pick for the next Fed Chair. Warsh is a sound money advocate who would like to see the central bank’s balance sheet reduced. A great goal, but it would also require a more austere fiscal policy.

That’s led to some whipsaw moves in gold and silver. Gold is back over $5,000 per ounce this morning. Silver has reclaimed $90. Bitcoin, in the meantime, has slid to a fresh one-year low.

With the United States conducting what the Pentagon politely calls an “operation” against Iranian military infrastructure, markets have had every reason to be panicky. Instead, the past week delivered something subtler…

Gold has been consolidating after a powerful multiyear rally. Yet with America’s gold reserves equal to only about 3% of federal debt, the metal could still have significant upside ahead.

The plan to release 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve would leave the U.S. with its smallest stockpile of emergency oil in more than four decades.
