| may be he is... i do not know his portfolio... but the rational was that he does not know when he makes money in dollars if he is growing his capital or shrinking it... so he goes gold.. feels his capital is safe and then borrows to produce income and hopefully some cap gain and does not care about the value of the principal of whatever he buys because he owes as much. |

pillz.. now imagine that the US continues spending 30% more than it intakes and the fed continues cutting rates into rising inflation... may be gold does not go from 1% of portfolios to 2... but to 10, 20..whatever...

Stock index futures rose Sunday evening on hopes that the U.S. and China can again defuse trade tensions.
S&P futures (SPX) +0.9%, Nasdaq 100 futures (US100:IND) +1.2% and Dow futures (INDU) +0.6% were higher.
President Donald Trump posted Sunday that "it will all be fine" and described Chinese President Xi Jinping as “highly respected” and suggested that both nations want to avoid economic pain, writing that the U.S. “wants to help China, not hurt it.”
That came after China's Commerce Ministry urged Washington to resolve disputes through dialogue rather than threats, adding: “We do not want a tariff war but we are not afraid of one.” |

pillz... i think it is more complicated than choosing a percentage number to allocate to gold.
//
yes , but the allocation will go up with the time , the funds are under allocated ... even a 1% change in allocation will do to the gold to go up big way , the only question is when , I think it is al started .. btw , gold is already up at the start of trading ...today |

The issue is not gold as an asset part of a mix of assets... it is about but gold (and silver) as the only of value currently available.
Fiat is a short 50 years experiment. And it has failed. Politicians advised by servile central bankers can not run money and banking.
The previous 5000 years it was gold and silver, and it served the world well until the US went to war in Vietnam, ramped up the budget deficit and all hell broke loose. They defaulted on the promise written on the dollar notes to exchange dollars for gold and inflation started... first oil.. then other commodities.. then the rest.
Dollar, Yen, Euro profits do not mean anything anymore. Gold can help to sort that out.
It will be a process. Somehow some form of gold standard will come. And it will start with the revaluation of the 8,200 tons of gold that the US has in Fort Knox valued at......42 dollars per ounce. |

my opinion is simply that portfolios are under-weighted gold.
//
Yes , I know , but everybody speak about it , and now the gold is above 4000$ ... I know that it can go up or down short term , but I imagine longer term it will go up , if every fund , pension funds atc.. will start to make from 1% holding gold to 2% .. |

Trump, Binance, and a 20 Billion-Dollar Crypto scam
Donald Trump’s announcement of 100% tariffs on China triggered a global financial shockwave, erasing hundreds of billions of dollars in value across world markets within hours. Yet the timing of several massive cryptocurrency transactions suggests this was far from an ordinary market reaction.
In the hours before the announcement, over $1 billion was quietly funneled into crypto markets, particularly into Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins. When Trump made his statement, both traditional and crypto markets imploded—Bitcoin plummeting by over $20,000 in a single candle, while altcoins lost 60–90% wiping out every single trader that was long
Meanwhile, one brand new anonymous wallet reportedly made over $200 million in profit in a single day. a gain that would have required precise knowledge of when the market crash would occur. That precision appears to have been no accident.
On-chain data shows that a HyperLiquid whale had been adding shorts on Bitcoin and Ethereum right up until 20:49 GMT—exactly one minute before Trump’s tariff threat at 20:50 GMT. What an incredible stroke of “luck.” Don’t be so silly, This is no coincidence.
Adding to the suspicion, Binance, once again showed why it remains under intense regulatory scrutiny. During the crash, Binance reportedly froze user accounts, disabled limit orders and stop-losses, and blocked access to funds—trapping traders leaving them to do nothing but watch themselves get liquidated.
This could represent one of the most blatant cases of coordinated manipulation in recent years and raises serious questions about potential coordination between Binance and Trump’s circle. Binance have since publicly apologised to try damage control the situation but those affected will never forget. There is 0 excuses for what happened. People lost every dollar to there name, some people even took there own lives.
Its CEO, Richard Teng could face major legal consequences if these actions are confirmed. Just like CZ did.
Regulators must investigate immediately. The public deserves to know whether powerful political and financial figures manipulated global markets for personal gain. Shorting up until 1 minute before trumps tweets shows clear undeniable insider trading. |

i think it was a very bad move to give MCM the nobel price... it is going to make now even more difficult to negotiate an exit.
Norway was supposed to be an impartial mediator... now there is no mediator.

| OpenAI may very well be the hottest start-up of all time—and there is a long line of investors looking to back them—but a trillion dollars is, to put it succinctly, nuts. It’s roughly 3.4% of 2024 U.S. gross domestic product and about a quarter of all nonresidential private investment. All this from a start-up that still has large and growing losses. |

Since the turn of the century, the geniuses on the FOMC have pegged the real Fed Funds Rate at negative levels nearly 80% of the time. And even as of July 2025—three years after allegedly pivoting to inflation-fighting—the real Fed funds rate is only positive by 110 basis points.
... what’s not fit for purpose here isn’t merely the numbers crunchers at the BLS, but the 12-person monetary politburo at the FOMC, which has been foolish enough to make the monthly nonfarm payroll survey the be-all-and-end-all of the “incoming data” by which they supposedly macro-manage the entire $30 trillion US economy.

As usual as good rant from Stockman - although only half an explanation ... which is seemingly the best anyone has. |
