To say that the Japanese financial system is in trouble is an understatement. They are currently unwinding $20 T carry trade and they are the single largest owners of US Treasuries.
Commodities are poised to continue running … and in a significant way.
Are they unwinding the carry trade or rather is it being forcibly unwound? The issue is the derivatives that are off into the quadrillions of dollars are all intertwined.
How many times has the LBMA and COMEX rehypothecated the metal they do have? The old adage of if you don't hold it you don't own it will come home to roost somepoint in the next decade.

I fear this is correct …

Holding on like it is my first tidday.
It has run up, like the little train that could, to $59.46 then dropped to $59.28. 45 minutes from now, the Nikkei opens. If they feel they are in trouble, they will run to metal and bust through $60. The Shanghai and Hong Kong openings could take up even more slack. I am thinking $63-65 tonight.

Absolutely with you on that one.
I think mid $60s is optimistic however that we keep moving laterally and then up after every pullback means the momentum structure has broken to the upside and so I am hoping for a $65 price at the end of the month.

Nikkei is barely moving the needle. Hang Seng and Hong Kong open in 31 minutes. I am thinking it busts a move about 12:30-1:30 EST.

When I realized that the secret to financial prosperity was aggressively fading the dollar, everything got so much easier.
That’s been my life for the last couple of years, be it gold, silver, bitcoin or literally any other hard asset. I have absolutely no use for a stockpile of green paper and I’ve got plenty of exposure to the stock market via 401ks. Fixed income and CDs can get bent.
I’ve gone full degen mode. My balance is just barely going to cover my cc payment this month because I bought my first rare basketball card. I get paid and all the assets fight for their taste of the proceeds. I’ve been hammering silver the most recently for sure. I want to start grabbing some platinum and palladium.

Get ready. Rocky economic numbers mean the govt will turn up the money printer even further in 2026.

I was watching it last night like it was the NFL Draft and what I learned is that it looks like the Asian markets couldn't GAF less about silver.

China and India absolutely love silver but typically speaking India loads up when it breaks below the 200 day moving average which is like $40. China has basically ceased all exports and has moved into buying silver ore direct from mines and then refining it in China basically bypassing the corrupt western exchanges entirely. When the dust settles we will never trust in a futures exchange it will be purely a cash and carry price setting mechanism which will likely drive the pricing ratios closer to their pre 1970s numbers inside the precious metals realm.
James Anderson went off earlier today he always has the best charts

this spells favorable news for silver, even though they are referencing gold … and it is led by China and Poland ….

After taking a breather earlier this year, central banks are once again gobbling up gold, with October purchases hitting the highest level of the year. Central banks globally increased their gold reserves by 53 tonnes (net) in October. That was up 36 percent from September, and the highest level of monthly purchases this year.
October central bank gold buying built on a strong third quarter, with official reported purchases coming in at a net 220 tonnes. That was up 28 percent from Q2 and 6 percent above the five-year third-quarter average.

Momentarily broke $59 for the first time but then they drove it down $2.50 this morning.
The more we move sideways and still hold is going to be amazing support going forwards. This is not 1980 or 2011
John Rubino goes into the carry trade unwind and the need for physical in hand assets in 2026.
I don't care what team you root for I want you to be beyond the pale successful as this decade closes out so you can rotate your profits from bullion back into stocks when they bottom out. Always buy when consumer sentiment is negative and sell when consumer sentiment is high. Just following that simple system will make you generationally wealthy if you have the discipline.

What did you grab? People laugh at me buying Pokémon boxes and sports cards on the side. If you know what you are doing it can be a solid side investment

Yup. But you need to be increasingly careful. The Chinese have gotten exceptional at counterfeiting the products as well as the authentication methods.
