GOOOD MORNING GOOOOLD TENT

A signals service I built from a four-year research project

Morning Goldtenters,

Bit of an update on something I’ve been building for a while.

Like many here, I lived through the 2008-2011 bull market with the scars to prove it – and watched some life-changing returns evaporate over the years that followed. Following that experience, I decided to use my data-analysis background to run a four-year research project (Theseus) into systematic precious metals timing, working with a professional statistician. That started back in 2020, and has expanded into GoldBuzz INSIDER which launched this weekend. It provides daily investing signals across gold, silver, miners and bitcoin, plus a 20-stock weekly miner portfolio.

Quite a few of you already get the free GoldBuzz newsletter – INSIDER is the paid extension of that work.

It’s been live with beta testers for over a year and just launched publicly yesterday. There’s a founding member discount available for the next week for anyone interested.

Details are at goldbuzz.com/upgrade. Happy to take questions.

EDIT ADDED

In the last precious metals bull market, select miners returned 10-20x. But most investors missed it. They picked the wrong stocks, mistimed their entries, or panicked during corrections and sold at the bottom.

The Same Opportunity is Here Again.
This Time, You Don’t Have to Guess.
“GoldBuzz INSIDER is how I invest my own money.” – Rick Adams, Founder

The Director of the National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard:

The United States border under the Biden-Harris Terrorist Administration was essentially relinquished to the cartels.

The cartels lured in pregnant women, performed illegal caesarean sections, harvested organs, and then sold new born babies.

Every single member of Biden’s cabinet should be designated as domestic terrorists, hunted down, placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, and tried for crimes against the United States government, including crimes against humanity.

CANADA — An ethics report just called on Mark Carney to sell his investments. Here’s why it likely won’t happen – National Post

The WHO Is Building A Supranational Vaccine Authorization Mechanism

Beyond the damage to sovereignty, the danger in this model is deeper.

“I need to ask someone else to take responsibility for the second part of the approvals process, so that I won’t have a conflict of interest. I’m also working with Bill Gates and the World Health Organization on the vaccine itself.”

This admission of a conflict of interest was made by Prof. Lester Schulman, secretary of the Ministry of Health’s polio committee, in March 2023, during an internal discussion about approving the importation into Israel of a new polio vaccine. The vaccine was developed and promoted by the World Health Organization in collaboration with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and its approval pathway relied on a new emergency authorization mechanism the WHO has developed in recent years: the EUL (Emergency Use Listing).

The EUL: An Emergency Mechanism or a De Facto Regulatory Infrastructure?

In recent years, the WHO has developed mechanisms that expand its influence beyond recommendations and, in effect, enable it to directly influence regulatory authorization processes within states. The central mechanism is the EUL, an independent WHO emergency procedure that is not part of national authorization systems.

BACKROOM DEALS

While the world watches Hormuz headlines, the real story is in the quiet bilateral deals being signed behind the noise.

On April 15th alone:

Trump announced the permanent opening of the Strait of Hormuz with Chinese cooperation on Iran weapons.

China and the UAE signed a major investment pact to mobilize sovereign wealth fund capital across priority sectors, targeting $300 billion in non-oil trade by 2030.

Japan accelerated its shift away from Middle East oil, locking in parts of a $550 billion bilateral energy program with the US.

Japan, which sourced over 90% of its crude through Hormuz, is permanently diversifying. India is building alternative procurement desks. The UAE is routing more oil through Fujairah, bypassing Hormuz entirely — exports through alternative routes jumped dramatically.

Every one of these deals is bilateral. Nation to nation. Sovereign wealth fund to sovereign wealth fund. Producer to consumer. No multilateral institution. No London intermediary collecting rent. No eurodollar plumbing required.

This is America, Russia, China (ARC) in practice — not a formal alliance, but an emergent architecture where competing powers independently conclude that direct settlement is cheaper, faster, and more secure than routing through an intermediary that weaponizes access when it suits institutional interests.

The Hormuz crisis forced the experiment. Major Asian economies discovered they could source and settle crude through alternative bilateral channels under the worst conditions imaginable. Nobody is going back to the old plumbing voluntarily.

The petrodollar still functions. Oil is still priced in dollars. But the petro-eurodollar settlement layer — the offshore borrowing mechanism that routes through London — is losing flow volume with every bilateral deal signed. The intermediary’s fee structure is being bypassed one handshake at a time.

The signal isn’t in the headlines. It’s in the handshakes.

Trump just OFFICIALLY CANCELED Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner’s flight to Pakistan for talks with Iran — Fox

“I’ve told my people a little while ago they were getting ready to leave, and I said, ‘Nope, you’re not making an 18 hour flight to go there. We have all the cards. They can call us anytime they want, but you’re not going to be making any more 18 hour flights to sit around talking about nothing’.” — Trump tells Fox’s
@aishahhasnie

Trump could smell the BS from 18 hours away

No more wasting time. BLOCKADE CONTINUES and Trump is in no rush.

Iran better get its act together before it’s too late!

JD Vance was on standby if talks got productive. It’s now canceled entirely, unless Iran gets serious.

Accelerated Timeline

It looks like President Trump has finally started the countdown towards justice with his recent posts about Hillary, Obama et al.  I don’t know why he has waited so long to do so but it seems pretty clear there is going to be some speed going forward.  First and foremost, it needs to get done well before the midterms.  Second, it would make sense that you would want the process to be well under way, so the American public can understand what it is all about and actually have something to celebrate on the country’s 250th Birthday, rather than just a big politcal, unresolved clusterfuck.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             Two months to get it all out there and begin the accountability phase.   It looks like Pam Bondi was always just a temporary place holder as AG, more so than her being either incompetent, nor obstructionist.  If she were either, Trump would have thrown her under the bus the way he has done with others who were either bad choices and or turned out to be disloyal.  I’m not sure why it was perceived to be necessary to drag this out for so long, but the accelerated timeline is about to begin.   One aspect of this is to line it up with aggressive new ATH’s for the stock market.  That is likely to allow for the fallout politically(an overdue correction technically) to occur from levels so high up, that even a 20-30% correction will just seem normal.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              The next two months leading up until July 4th, should be wild and wacky, and that just sets the stage for the run up to the midterms.

A little humor

Dave Collum’s kind (first comment)

DOJ Brennan subpoenas being withdrawn

“Suddenly we see reports of DOJ Brennan subpoenas being withdrawn immediately after the DOJ criminal referral for Eric Ciaramella is introduced.

**nudge-nudge* *wink-wink**
See the dynamic?”

Sundance sees this as VERY POSITIVE.

As usual, its complicated. Back to Sundance (and more in comment one)

“I suspect, well, let’s consider, Ciaramella has been given the opportunity to cooperate as a witness in the 2017 Brennan case; perhaps in exchange for something like limited immunity in the 2019 impeachment issue. The timeline tracks.”

NEM is up 5%+ today…a few analysts must have put 2 and 2 together this morning…in any case, NEM is showing a beautiful set up for a breakout with a consolidation at higher levels, and a fantastic inverted H&S shoulders formation showing.  Iran capitulates with peace deal in the next week, watch this sucker take off and take out old highs.

Put in a buy with a stop loss at 107, and that’s a low risk high reward play.

The Old Extraction Machine Is Cracking — Treasury and DOJ Are Striking Multiple Fronts

In just the past week, the U.S. Treasury and DOJ have delivered several significant blows against the networks that profit from opacity, exploitation, and manufactured division:

This is mercantilist realism in action — using sanctions, law enforcement, and transparency tools to disrupt foreign predation and domestic grift. For decades the old globalist scarcity model tolerated or benefited from these extraction channels. That era is ending.

Secretary Scott Bessent and the Trump administration are sending a consistent message: Americans will no longer be easy marks for foreign criminals, domestic fraud networks, or unaccountable NGOs. The more these operations are exposed and dismantled, the harder it becomes for the old system to keep functioning in the shadows.

Against US Dominance: Europe’s Hormuz Mission And The Illusion Of Geopolitical Power

The four leading European states are planning a naval mission to secure the Strait of Hormuz. This much is clear: the hot phase of the conflict appears to be over, and the key players have already made their moves.

What we are witnessing in Brussels and the leading capitals of the EU are desperate attempts at coordinated foreign policy – and the realization that the cooperation of powerless individual entities does not necessarily lead to better outcomes than bilateral cooperation.

That this realization must have reached the highest circles of European politics could be observed at the end of this week. The four “big ones” – Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy – called for a maritime alliance and the protection of the Strait of Hormuz.

Dow CEO says clearing the Strait of Hormuz logjam will take almost a year

  • Dow CEO Jim Fitterling said that clearing the Strait of Hormuz will likely take longer than investors expect.

  • “Some scenario planning that we did said that even if the straits were to reopen today, just to clear the logistics logjam… is going to take 275 days, maybe more now,” he told Jim Cramer on CNBC’s “Mad Money” on Thursday.

“You’ve got to get empty ships back. We’ve got to clean out the strait and the Arabian Gulf. We’ve got to get empty ships back in,” said Fitterling, who is retiring on July 1 as Dow’s chief executive after an eight-year run. “This is not going to be in a month or two. This is going to be several quarters before you’re going to see things return to normal.”
