Keep It Simple: Gold vs. a Mad World<\/a><\/h3>\n

\n

Psychologists, poets and philosophers have written for centuries that many who have eyes refuse to see, and many who can think, refuse to think clearly\u2013all for the simple reason that some truths, like the sun, are just too hard to look straight into.<\/p>\n

Or as others have said more bluntly: \u201cTruth is like poetry\u2014everyone [fricking] hates it.\u201d<\/p>\n

When it comes to bloated markets, debt orgies and helicopter money, the rising fun of such \u201cstimulus\u201d is embraced, yet the template for its equally market-tanking, social-destroying and currency-debasing consequences are\u00a0simply<\/em>\u00a0ignored.<\/p>\n

The same is true when it comes to the \u201cgreat inflation debate,\u201d which is\u00a0simply<\/em>\u00a0no longer a debate but a neon-screaming reality playing out in real time and growing more pernicious before eyes otherwise blinded by\u00a0calming Fed-speak<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0bogus inflation scales<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each passing day, the evidence of the inflationary cancer beneath the smiling surface of our still rising markets and \u201crecovering\/opening\u201d economy increases, and thus, like it or not, the inflation topic just won\u2019t and can\u2019t be over-stated enough.<\/p>\n

In short: Here I go again with the inflation thing\u2026<\/p>\n

From the Grocer to Buffet: Inflation is Obvious<\/strong><\/p>\n

Extreme US \u201cstimulus,\u201d vaccine rollouts, Europe\u2019s eventual reopening, and rising commodity costs are accelerating the inflationary tailwinds which everyone from grocery store clerks and home builders to Warren Buffet can no longer deny or ignore.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

As facts rather than theories confirm, commodity prices have surged from steel to copper, or corn to lumber while precious metals steadily rise against\u00a0COMEX price fixers<\/strong><\/a>, CPI lies and other unsustainable boots to the neck of a coiled gold market positioned for big moves into late 2021 and beyond.<\/p>\n
