The US Dollar is still way over priced, it was historically around 80 on the index. For a while it was up to 110, so 96.38 today is still way over priced. And besides all that all prices on the futures market are priced in US Dollars.
So when the dollar goes down, all the others go up, shown below. The only currency that sort of matches the dollar, or is pegged is the Japanese Yen and the Chinese Yuan.

Lest face it, if back around 1989 they were promoting off shoring our jobs to China, don’t you think American companies would want assurance that things stay the same, re currency exchange rates? Like a business needing a 50 year “lease” so they don’t waste their money moving everything over there.
One time I saw a trucker moving machinery out of a manufacturing business. I asked him, where are you going with all that machinery? To the docks in Manhattan going overseas.

I wonder if it is about to be thrown out the window like it was in silver?
Good riddance.

Seems to be a non-factor today. I wonder if Holter is onto something. Could it just be that all fiat is going to its true value of zero? While silver is in shortage, gold is in the early stages of sniffing out a total fiat collapse?
The perfect excuse to usher in a CBDC, because a digital currency made of air holds so much more value.

Another key piece of the macro puzzle is now on the table:
A decisive breakdown in the US dollar.
The world remains heavily overweight U.S. assets and is not positioned for a sustained dollar downtrend.

Refinancing, new purchases were ugly. I think the economy is slipping and inflation may join the fray again.
OTOH – Gold shares are stellar. What does it mean? 🤫😂

Silver shares are less than impressive today so far. Wondering if we still aren’t going to face some Fed games after the announcement.
They’d spend their last dime if they knew they could hurt the pm sector.

I agree, in fact I know all about it. That’s why I became a nurse. Concerning our elders veterans and even children. You find it’s not so easy to make things better and learn the games that will try to stop you that are endless and try not to settle in and find like minded to work together. The problem with repubs is they don’t work together as well and need to seriously work on that as well as not think they get a vacation when Trump’s in and knowing he only has a few years they better get things set in stone like the borders and none senile nut like Biden can’t break the law again that will end them and this country with it amongst a plethora of other things.

I totally agree. I made it sound very black and white. I certainly recognize that there’s a lot more to it than just simply looking at the overall general view.
I digress a bit, but I do think that there are some honest, well meaning politicians out there. It’s the system that makes them conform to wrong doing and drags them into the cess pool if they want to politically stay alive.

I’m not taking sides cuz no sides perfect but every what event? Some would call Islamic event. What’s going on in Europe, Ukraine, Iran, China, Canada, South Africa killing white people. As far as these globalist and there CBDCs who caused the devaluation of the dollars? They will use any event as a excuse.

Unfortunately I think you are likely right. Chaos will be a premium time for instituting a CBDC system. They will “SAVE” everyone and if it gets the grocery trucks moving again how much opposition will it get? We are truly COOKED if put under that yoke!

Glad gold going up and keep that ratio up.

I think that there may be some truth to what Holter is saying.
China is already using a CBDC monetary system. Europe is beta testing a CBDC system. How can the Global elites rationalize using a CBDC system ( especially here in the US)? To provide stability after a tumultuous, cataclysmic fall in the markets…….We seem to lose more of our liberties after every seismic event (2008, 9-11 etc….)

In closing, Holter predicts, “There will be failure to deliver silver in the first part of March 2026…”
” The currencies will zero out. It is a collapse of the entire financial system…
The real economy runs on credit. Everything you touch, everything you do . . . credit has been involved in its creation.
If credit becomes unattainable, the real economy completely shuts down, and that is where your Mad Max comes in.”

in a two-minute window, silver went up over a buck. Silver shares turned around quickly.

It’s not only that. Trump is going to prevent China getting chummy with oil and metal resource nations like Venezuela now Iran next preventing them out to corner real assets for themselves. So meanwhile China is over in Canada getting chummy with their PM bought another mine and will dangle IOUs in front of him for real resources and rob them blind.
