The age-old game Rock, Paper, Scissors is a fast-paced, two-player hand game based on three gestures:
-
Rock (fist)
-
Paper (flat hand)
-
And scissors (peace sign)
It operates on a cycle where rock crushes scissors, scissors cuts paper, and paper covers rock.
But in today’s financial world Rock is beating paper.
Translation: Gold is preferrable to dollars.
And this is a trend that still has huge upside in it.
Why do we say that?
Because banks (who historically hate gold) have been very quietly loading up on gold.
The biggest Banksters in the industry (Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan) have been manipulating the price of gold and silver via their bought-and-paid-for COMEX cronies for decades.
But are now doing a “Mea Culpa” and calling for significant increases in the precious metals.
Goldman (aka “The Squid”) is on record saying its forecast for gold in 2026 is $5,400.
But at the same time saying the words “with significant upside risk” to their forecast, which translates to they actually expect a much higher year-end price move.
JP Morgan spoke far more directly/bullishly, announcing a $6,300 gold price as their “base case” for year end, and went on to confess an upside as high as $8,500.
To see banks suddenly joining the gold narrative is not only a confession of the dollar’s declining global role, it’s a signal of a global financial system in trouble.
In other words, even the big banksters can no longer ignore the signals we have been revealing for years.
Ironically (or NOT) seeing such gold price confessions from two pillars of a banking system historically terrified of rising gold is beyond telling.
In fact, it’s revolutionary in its implications.
But don’t sell the farm and put it all in gold yet.
We hope their “targets” are right but (flying under the radar) they just hiked gold margins 3x on the COMEX.
And may be trying to con us into another unwind/puke where they sell tons of paper gold to drive the price down while saying, “I’m shocked, I tell you…Shocked. Who could have foreseen this happening?”
It’s happened multiple times in the last decade. So, never underestimate the desperate determination of “fiat”. There are ways and means to win a currency war, even against gold.
Gold has many characteristics that make it an ideal currency.
And of all the elements available it is perhaps the best physical element to serve as a currency.
But don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.
Instead, be comfortable with the fact that gold and silver are in the early stages of a major bull market.
