GOLD’S WARNING SIGNAL: THE SYSTEM IS CRACKING
The Stimulus Hangover Is Here
The government spent an eye-watering $4.6 trillion during COVID to keep the economy from completely imploding. Stimulus checks, loan bailouts, tax breaks—you name it, they handed it out. For the past five years, that artificial money rush has kept the illusion alive.
But here’s the problem: the money’s gone.
The economic reality is sinking in, and people are starting to feel it. Just take a look at the University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment Survey—more people now expect business conditions to get worse over the next year than at any time since the 2008 financial crisis.
Investor sentiment? It’s even uglier. According to the American Association of Individual Investors, nearly 60% of investors are now bearish—double the usual levels. People are finally waking up to the fact that this economy isn’t as strong as they were told.
The System Has Been Rigged for Decades
None of this should come as a surprise. Since at least 2008, the entire financial system has been running on life support:
- Zero interest rates to inflate asset bubbles.
- Trillions in deficit spending to paper over economic weakness.
- Emergency stimulus checks to keep consumers from realizing how bad things really are.
Every time a crisis hits, the government throws more fake money at the problem instead of fixing the real issues. And now, with record-high debt, a shaky stock market, and a banking system teetering on collapse, we’re staring down the next crisis.
There was a brief moment when it looked like things might turn around. When Trump first took office, there was talk of slashing government waste and getting spending under control. But let’s be real—the swamp fought back, and they’re still winning.
Even billionaires like Elon Musk are openly saying they fear for their lives if they expose too much corruption. That tells you everything you need to know.
Gold Is Sounding the Alarm—Loud and Clear
While Washington plays its usual games, gold is quietly sending a very clear message.
Gold doesn’t lie. It doesn’t get manipulated by politicians or bailed out by central banks. It simply reacts to economic reality.
And right now, that reality is terrifying.
- Gold just broke through $3,000 per ounce for the first time ever.
- Central banks—especially in China and Russia—are buying at record levels.
- Investors are fleeing fiat currencies and moving into real money.
If the system were on solid ground, gold wouldn’t be surging like this. But it is—because the system is falling apart.
And if history tells us anything, the government’s response will be the same as always: more spending, more debt, more printed money.
Trump’s latest spending bill is a perfect example. It cuts a measly $13 billion in non-defense spending but adds $6 billion to defense. Compared to the $1.7 trillion budget, that’s a rounding error. Washington has no real plan to fix this.
What Comes Next—and How to Protect Yourself
I’d love to be optimistic about the future, but I believe we’re in for more of the same:
- More deficit spending. Washington has no interest in tightening the belt.
- More stimulus checks. When the next crisis hits, expect handouts to calm the masses.
- More currency devaluation. The dollar will continue to lose purchasing power.
That means you need to act now to protect your wealth.
- Get out of fiat and into real assets. Gold and silver aren’t just investments—they’re lifeboats.
- Diversify outside the U.S. system. Emerging markets may offer better opportunities than the bloated, overvalued U.S. stock market.
- Prepare for the long haul. This crisis won’t be fixed overnight. You need to think years ahead, not just months.
I’m not selling my gold, silver, or mining stocks. And neither should you. The next phase of this crisis could hit at any moment.
