Silver Stackers: Measure your Stash like a Miner  |
| When attempting to quantify the amount and quality of a possible mineralized
deposit on their property, exploration companies and producers generally follow
a process which seeks to state, in reasonably accurate and concise terms, just
what they have...or might have. Following the Bre-X fiasco, wherein 'highly
inaccurate' reserves of a supposed deposit in Borneo were publicized and acted
upon by a tidal wave of investors, sophisticated and neophyte alike, a new

Now, we will follow Ledbetter’s account of the end of Bretton Woods in 1971, up to the present.
The account of the 1971 devaluation was, following the pattern of this book, long on details but short on insight. It seemed to people at the time that they “had no choice,” thatSaturday, October 24, 2020 |

 Does Gold Keep up in Hyperinflation |
| Inflation is anatural consequence of loose government monetary policy. If those policies get too loose, hyperinflation can occur. As gold investors,we'd like to know if the precious metals would keep pace in this extreme scenario.
Hyperinflation is an extremely rapid period of inflation, but when does inflation (which can be manageable) cross the line and become out-of-control hyperinflation? PhilipCagan, one of the very first researchers of this phenomenon, defines hyperinflation as "an inflation rate of 50% or more in a single month, "something largely inconceivable to the average investor.Wednesday, August 19, 2020 |

 August 15, 1971: Inflation Unleashed  |
| The general public, the media and most financial observers were largely unaware of the momentous event that took place on August 15, 1971. However, the implications of that event have had an enormous impact on global financial conditions ever since. On that date, US President Richard Nixon “closed the gold window”. In essence, this meant the US would no longer honour the Bretton Woods Agreement of 1944, whichSaturday, August 15, 2020 |

| Devaluations of the 1930s Don't Justify Today's Funny Money Excess |
| Without question, the Great Depression was a time when the political
consensus moved from a Classical “hard money” approach towards a
Mercantilist “soft money” approach — leading, ultimately, to today’s
“print until the pain goes away” reaction. Actually, this trend had
started in the later 19th century, and was not fully expressed until
the 1970s – an evolution stretching over a hundred years or more.
But, the experience of the Great Depression period of the 1930s

| Understanding money and prices |
| This article explains the money side of prices, and why government currencies, unbacked by gold, are doomed to collapse. And why gold, which is the sound money chosen by markets throughout history, will retain or increase its purchasing power measured in the goods it buys over the coming years.Very few people have a full understanding of the relationship between money and goods. This is the relationship that sets prices. Yet, without that understanding, central banks will almost certainly fail iWednesday, June 3, 2020 |

| Angola (1991-1999)
Angola went through the worst inflation from 1991 to 1995. In early 1991, the highest denomination was 50,000 kwanzas. By 1994, it was 500,000 kwanzas. In the 1995 currency reform, 1 kwanza reajustado was exchanged for 1,000 kwanzas. The highest denomination in 1995 was 5,000,000 kwanzas reajustados. In the 1999 currency reform, 1 new kwanza was exchanged for 1,000,000 kwanzas reajustados. The overall impact of hyperinflation: 1 new kwanza = 1,000,000,000 pre-1991 kwanzas.Wednesday, April 15, 2020 |

| Debt and Delusions – Part 2 |

The problem with debt is the creditor expects to be repaid.
Sovereign debt will be “rolled over,” never extinguished, and repaid with new debt. We delude ourselves and pretend total debt will increase forever (it can’t). That explains global debt exceeding $230 trillion today and official U.S. government debt approaching $21 trillion, with unfunded liabilities adding another $100 – $200 trillion.

| OWN GOLD BEFORE PANDORA REOPENS THE BOX |
| In the old Greek mythology, the opening of Pandora’s box unleashed many evils on the world. Within the next few years, we will see a modern Pandora’s box being opened that will lead to events in the world which will be as devastating as when the ancient box was opened. The very big difference is that this time the consequences will not be part of historical mythology. Instead they will be real and catastrophic for the whole world on a scale never experienced in history.

| Future U.S. Oil Production Will Collapse Just As Quickly As It Increased |
| While U.S. oil production reached a new peak of 10.25 million barrels per day, the higher it goes, the more breathtaking will be the inevitable collapse. Thus, as the mainstream media touts the glorious new record in U.S. production that has both surpassed its previous peak in 1970 and Saudi Arabia’s current oil production, it’s a bittersweet victory.Why? There are two critical reasons the current record level of U.S. oil production won’t last and is also, a house of cards. First of all, oilThursday, February 8, 2018 |

| Interest Rates: Going Up Or Down |
| The 10 Year T-Note yields only 2.6%. But 18 months ago the rate was under 1.5%. In our current era of supposed central bank printed prosperity the low yield tells us digital currency units have little time value. Current European rates are “negative” for trillions of euros in sovereign debt. Argentina sold 100 year bonds.
HOW DID IT GET SO CRAZY?
The short version is that central banks intervened in the debt and equity markets so much that the financial system is a bit crazy.

| More mining companies should follow the example of the garimpeiro miners of Brazil who mine until they fail to make a profit, says Bob Moriarty of 321 Gold, who discusses one gold and one uranium company that may be changing the paradigm.
The garimpeiro miners in Brazil can't spell either. All they know how to do is to mine at a profit. Unlike professionally run mining companies, they mine until they fail to make a profit. Then they stop. All garimpeirosFriday, December 15, 2017 |

| Rising Powers, Global Money and the Age of Empire (2010), by Steven Bryan |
| You can tell from the title of this book alone that I would be interested in it. There aren’t very many books out there on the Classical Gold Standard era of the latter Nineteenth Century. Indeed, I would say that Giulio Gallarotti’s book The Anatomy of an International Monetary Regime: the Classical Gold Standard, 1880-1914 (1995) is about the only one I could name. There are other books, but they are collections of papers. I like Gallarotti’s book a lot — he demolishes all kinds of common miscFriday, December 15, 2017 |
