Gold and silver have been reliable money for 5,000+ years. The U.S. dollar, untethered from gold since 1971, has lost 96% of its purchasing power—its collapse is inevitable.

The Federal Reserve’s $9 trillion balance sheet and BRICS nations dumping the dollar signal its coming demise. Industrial demand (solar, EVs, […]
