Gold Sustains A “Real” Historic High

Gold is up 171% versus the U.S. dollar since 2019.

There’s a genuine bull market in place here – 35% year to date.

More importantly, gold has now sustained above its inflation-adjusted high:

Gold’s peak of $800 back in 1980, adjusted for inflation, clicks in at $3,500 per ounce, making gold’s break above $3,600 the first all-time high in real, inflation-adjusted terms, in 44 years.

And retail investors have barely noticed.

The gold rally is but one reaction to persistent inflation — and this Terrifying Bull Market. Is not too late to buy.

P.S.: We see further upside in gold for several reasons — central bank buying, soaring M2  money supply… a global crisis in government debt… the endgame for global fiat… geopolitical concerns.

We’re experiencing the return of a 1970s-style macro environment. Gold could hit $10,000 by the end of the decade… and still have room to run. For a reasoned approach, check out our full research on the topic here.

American Life: Less Ordinary

But Green is describing more than just a new calculation. He’s talking about a new form of misery.’ It’s a poverty where you may still have most of the accoutrements of middle-class life. But your relationship with the financial elite has changed: you are indentured to the credit industry — for life.

The Inflation Episodes – Act I

December 2, 2025 • Addison Wiggin

Historically, when the Fed has cut into inflation above 3%, one of two outcomes tends to follow:

A brief reprieve, followed by a larger inflation wave (see: 1970s).

A crisis born from cheap money rather than expensive money (see: housing in the 2000s).

We are heading into another round of cuts with:

• A still-bloated balance sheet

• A new digital plumbing that auto-funds the Treasury

• Hard-asset markets flashing warning lights

Paul Tudor Jones summed it up in one dry quip: interest expense is now one of Washington’s largest bills; commodities are “ridiculously under-owned”; and “all roads lead to inflation.”

The Fed’s flip from QT to easing doesn’t end this inflation episode. It likely begins its next season.

Looking For 10% Monthly Returns? Google It

The question investors should ask themselves isn’t whether this trend is sustainable – it isn’t.

Instead, they should ask if the $2 trillion increase in Google’s market cap has sucked capital away from other promising parts of the market – and if so, where investors can expect a rally when Google reverses.

The Problem With Fake Money

December 1, 2025 • Bill Bonner

Long have we dwelt on the corrupting influence of funny money on capital asset prices and on the economy. Everything gets distorted, perverse…and false. We get high prices. We get low prices. What we don’t get are honest prices.

Yesterday, we looked at the ‘small time crooks’ — ripping off the public for a million or two.

Today, we move to the big fry.

You’ll recall that the money in question was never earned by anyone. No one has a genuine claim to it. And what kind of apple falls from this funny money tree? Just what you’d expect…a funny one…with the worms already in it.
