by request …. “Jupiter enters Leo”

Trump elevates Gold on the very day Jupiter enters Leo. Take the hint.
Comex December expiration $20,000 strike gold call option open interest surpassing 30,000 contracts?

When you realize “why” Trump hung the Gold Eagle plaque on the White House and why it was made of gold instead of “cast iron, wood or bronze,” you will catch the SIGNAL that I have been talking about for years.

What does the Gold Eagle plaque represent? It’s called the “Freedom Flyer.”

“The “freedom flyer” is a metal eagle plaque, typically made of cast iron, wood, or bronze, that represents financial freedom from debt.”

“Historically, homeowners hung these plaques above their front doors, garages, or on porches to publicly celebrate that they had paid off their mortgage in full.”

“Originating in the post-World War II era, the tradition was fueled by the G.I. Bill, which helped veterans purchase homes and sparked a culture of patriotism and financial independence.”

“While the custom declined in the 1970s, it remains a recognized symbol of a debt-free home” Why did the custom decline in the 1970’s? We went off the Gold Standard. I have been saying for years now, that the ENTIRE national debt is FRAUD.

Trump is going to get rid of income taxes and prevent the American people from paying the debt. Several things are happening at once, but they are all leading down the same path. A return to the Gold Standard is coming.

And here’s some stories flying under the radar that are pointing to massive transformation coming.

1) “The talk of a U.S. 50-year bond, redeemable in gold…to be announced on July 4…is still floating around out there — and not only refuses to go away, the commentary on it is increasing.” Do you remember who first brought up the “50 year bond redeemable in gold? It was Trump’s nominee to the Fed in his first term, Judy Shelton.

https://youtu.be/yhbD3Zkkxx0?si=MIqAypD0VepRWAFn

Is Trump going to announce a Gold backed Treasury on Independence Day? Is that why Trump placed the Gold Freedom Flyer Eagle on the White House this week?

2) “Then there’s the eye-popping price tag for the limited U.S. mintage of the ‘Freedom Ringing – Liberty Bell Gold Coins and Silver Medals’. The 1-ounce gold is $19,600 — and the half-ounce is $10,050. And dare I mentioned the price of the 1-ounce and half-ounce silver Liberty Bells…$1,500 and $750 respectively.” Is the price of Gold and Silver about to massively spike higher?

3) “But the big kahuna continues to be the $10,000 to $20,000 December call options in gold…which first came to my attention in early March.” “To quote@IntlStacker

: Something very unusual is happening in CME Gold Options: $10,000 Call ? 11,757 Open Interest! $15,000 Call ? 27,348 Open Interest *$20,000 Call ? 30,021 Open Interest Total open interest in all of these has risen substantially since I reported on them last about a month ago. As @MBAeconmics added to the above thread: Today let us celebrate the #Comex December expiration $20,000 strike gold call option open interest surpassing 30,000 contracts. You are living through history ladies and gentlemen!” There is a growing number of bets on COMEX that the price of Gold is getting ready to massively spike higher.

4) “And quietly over in China, was this news item from the South China Morning Post headlined “Major Chinese banks suspend individual trading on Shanghai Gold Exchange amid volatility.” “It appears that the word is out to China’s large banks. China Construction Bank is closing its customer trading facilities for gold and silver on the Shanghai Gold Exchange from July 24th and ICBC made a similar announcement for the same date: “it would close agency personal auction trading through mobile banking, online banking. After the closure the closing selling and delivery operations of customers holding positions will be restricted”. Coupled with Chinese banks reducing transaction fees to 0.2% on their customers’ gold accumulation accounts, these moves are clearly aimed at reducing speculation and encouraging accumulation.

The common date of 24th July suggests an event is in the wings.”

LETS HAVE A CHAT …FOR 10 YEARS

US Trade Ambassador Jamieson Greer tells me in an interview that the US is deciding not to renew the USMCA trade agreement, instead entering rolling talks with Canada and Mexico for up to ten years

Are China and USA moving to currency backed by gold?

Interesting ideas in the below video of what is going on between China and US financial policies wrt gold backed currencies.
1. China’s banks restricting retail paper gold access and raising margins
2. Speculative thesis: paper markets suppress gold prices
3. Central bank buying as evidence of a shift toward physical gold
  • 244 tonnes of central bank purchases in Q1.
  • 10 of the last 11 quarters exceeding 200 tonnes of purchases.
  • Gold now represents a larger share of global reserves than U.S. Treasuries.
4. Building a parallel gold-clearing system in Asia
The system is intended to:
  • Emphasize physical delivery rather than paper settlement.
  • Expand vault capacity .
  • Support yuan-denominated commodity pricing anchored by deliverable physical gold.
5. Speculation about a U.S. policy response
The U.S. officially has 8,000 tonnes of gold.  At a market price near US$4,000/oz. a market value of over US$1 trillion. References are made to research discussing the potential monetization of U.S. assets and to proposals for a 50-year Treasury bond redeemable in either dollars or gold, attributed to Judy Shelton.
The timing is uncertain and notes that could result in substantial dollar depreciation rather than an official gold revaluation.
Executive Summary
The discussion centers on the view that the global gold market may be entering a structural transition from leveraged paper trading toward physical settlement, with China positioned as a key driver.
On the U.S. side, participants speculate about the possibility of future gold-linked Treasury securities or a revaluation of official U.S. gold reserves.
Overall, the consensus is that physical gold markets, central bank demand, and evolving market infrastructure warrant close monitoring.

Russia Closes Border Crossings With Several NATO States After Finland Lifts Nuclear Ban

Finland officially became the 31st member of NATO in April 2023 – having abandoned its historic neutrality in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, in what was among the fastest accession processes in the Western military alliance’s history. Now it is already willing to host allied nukes on its territory, making it a target of Russian retaliation. Moscow has long warned against such an ultra-provocative move. The Kremlin said Monday that this requires a response – given also the fact that Russia and Finland share an over 800-mile long border, which is made up largely of Arctic frontier.

Study Claiming COVID Vaccines Benefit Heart Health ‘Hopelessly Flawed,’ Scientists Say

A new study linking COVID-19 vaccines to a significantly lower risk of heart attack and stroke joins “the latest in a growing body of research about the vaccine’s benefits for heart health,” according to The Washington Post, which reported on the study. But Dr. Vinay Prasad, a professor of epidemiology and biostatistics, and other scientists said the study is flawed and its findings skewed.

Still waiting, but like the July 1st action today in PM’s…

AYA, this stock has weathered the drawdown very well.  Looking to see if it can finally break through 22 on the next silver advance.  We will see, but still think this is a must own silver play if you are bullish on silver over the next 2-3 years.  Bounced off the 200 day, and now flirting with retaking the 50 day and staying above it.

Fire Fighting in European Union: Don’t Forget The Decade of Policy Failures in California

The parallels are startling, and they reveal a fundamental misunderstanding of what actually causes these catastrophes.

Canada’s House passed radical internet bill (C-22) that could lead to ‘surveillance infrastructure’

Mark Carney’s government pushed Bill C-22 through the House of Commons last week. The bill requires internet companies to ensure that their systems include surveillance capabilities. It gives bold new powers to police, as it permits them and government officials to open and examine Canadians’ personal mail, and would also have banned cash donations over $10,000.  The bill mandates that telecom and internet companies ensure that their systems include surveillance and monitoring capabilities, which could be shared with police and intelligence agencies.

National physician network warns a 12-month wind-down for drugs and biologics leaves these unsafe products on the market far too long.

“The deadline to announce the decision to extend is tomorrow, July 1st. There is no deadline on the timeline to announce an exit or withdrawal from the USMCA. That announcement can happen at any time.

Put simply, announcing a non-renewal is a 10-year exit. Announcing a withdrawal is a 6-month exit. The announcement to withdraw can come at any time after the statement of non-renewal.”

However, Canada will still be oblivious to what comes next because their media will tell them they have a decade to work things out. They don’t.

“You DON’T feel my pain. Because the next words out of your mouth were, ‘BUT.'”

“There’s no ‘BUT’ when your child is in a coffin!”

“And I need you to understand that. And if you ever want to talk about it, I’m here, I’m going to buy you a bench. I’m going to buy. You can put that on the record.
