Read excerpt
The free version of Episode 379 of Investing in Bizarro World is now live. Gold briefly broke below $4,400 this week, falling to approximately $4,370 before reversing sharply and climbing back toward $4,480. Silver made a similar move below $66 before recovering toward $68.

AI: Building the Cage for Your Enslavement — Bizarro World 378 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Artificial intelligence could eliminate corruption, automate the economy and usher in an age of abundance.

Meanwhile, the dollar has weakened below 100 on the DXY even as longer-term Treasury yields remain stubbornly high — giving gold the macro relief it needed. The Fed increasingly looks likely to sit on its hands. Ma
You Can’t Executive Order a Mine Into Existence — Bizarro World 375 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The free version of Episode 375 of Investing in Bizarro World is now live. Gerardo is away this week, so Nick goes solo with a chart-heavy look at the dollar, Treasury yields, gold, silver, copper, critical minerals, and uranium. The biggest macro development is the dollar breaking back below 100 on the DXY, helping gold rebound toward $4,300 even as Treasury yields remain elevated. Gold still has work to do technically, but the summer correction increasingly looks like it is trying to bottom. C
