Converting our increasingly debauched FedBux into REAL money - physical precious metals - are literally the 99 percents’ only defense against the Fed’s fiat currency fraud.
The real cratering hasn’t even started yet, but it’s coming.
This chart is basically a loaded gun that just went off. Every hedge fund, pension, and bank that borrowed in yen for 30 years is now sitting at their desk praying this line stops moving. The “Yen carry trade” was a surefire way to game the markets, until it wasn’t.

This was originally posted to r/economy, another sub I grace with my presence. Homeowners are going to be low-hanging fruit for the tax man as the takers overwhelm the makers & vote themselves benefits that someone else, i.e. the productive will be coercively forced to fund.
The math ain’t mathing, greedhead sellers, as the “cost of living crisis” due to the Fed’s debasement of the currency compounded by the staggering costs of Trump’s military misadventure in Iran are crushing would-be homebuyers.
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, greedhead sellers, but your delusional wish price on your shack is going to be a casualty of the massive economic consequences of endless neocon wars.
Definition of irony: while the Keynesian fraudsters at the central banks are in a race to debase, they are also bolstering their gold reserves against the inevitable financial reckoning day. Got silver? Got gold?
If tapped-out Murican debt donkeys can’t afford their car payments, how will they keep up with their mortgages & rents?

Most gold miners have costs around $1,500 to $2,000 per oz ... and they are selling gold at $4,500 per oz. The silver miners have costs between $15 to $25 per oz and they are selling silver at $75 to $80 per oz.
As America’s largest foreign creditor for years, China’s pullback removes a major buyer of U.S. debt. That can push Treasury yields higher, raising borrowing costs for the U.S. government, mortgages, and businesses.
The Fed can’t print hamburger.
Oh dear….
As America’s largest foreign creditor for years, China’s pullback removes a major buyer of U.S. debt. That can push Treasury yields higher, raising borrowing costs for the U.S. government, mortgages, and businesses.
This comes as mortgage rates declined for 3 consecutive weeks in April, boosting homebuyer confidence.
Furthermore, mortgage purchase applications increased +4.0% in the week ending May 13th.
Strengthening demand is feeding through to prices, with the median home sale price rising +2.2% YoY in the 4 weeks ending May 10th, to $397,740, the highest since July 2025.
This also marks the 2nd-largest increase over the last 7 months.
The US housing market just keeps pushing higher.
Agency debt includes mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and bonds from government-sponsored entities, while local authority debt includes municipal bonds issued by US states, cities, and local governments.
This comes as rising interest rate expectations, driven by a rebound in inflation, weighed on bond prices and prompted Japanese investors to cut US bond holdings.
Japan is the largest foreign holder of US Treasuries, at $1.24 trillion, ahead of the UK, at $897 billion, and China, at $693 billion.
Japanese investors are aggressively dumping US bonds.
Our corrupt DoJ, FBI, and regulators have no intention of going after the really big criminals inside the Beltway and in Manhattan. Blatant insider trading carried on with impunity is late-stage dying empire shit.
Remain calm - all is well!
