Robert Kiyosaki says silver will reach $70
Robert Kiyosaki urges investors to ditch “fake money” and start saving silver, gold, and Bitcoin — calling silver the top asset for the next two months and predicting it could hit $200.
“Silver for the next two months is the best of the three, gold, silver, and Bitcoin,” he said. “Today silver is about $35 an ounce. I believe silver may soon be $70 an ounce this year and $200 in a year or two.”
“The best news is, almost everyone in the world can afford at least 1 silver coin today….but not tomorrow,”

Singapore being used by the “ultra-wealthy”
The ultra-wealthy are increasingly moving their gold offshore as economic and geopolitical uncertainty roils markets — and Singapore is emerging as a favored destination.
Not far from the city-state’s airport sits a six-story facility covered in onyx and fortified by tight security. Tucked behind its steel doors are gold and silver bars amounting to about $1.5 billion.
“A lot of very high net worth clients are looking at tariffs, looking at the world changing, looking at the potential of geopolitical instabilities,” Gregersen told CNBC.
“The idea of putting physical metal in a safe jurisdiction like Singapore with parties they can trust is becoming a big trend nowadays,” he said, adding that 90% of the new orders are coming from outside of Singapore.

Copper futures fell by 22%
US President Donald Trump went ahead with 50% tariffs on copper imports but exempted refined metals, which are the mainstay of international trading. The move triggered a record plunge for US prices after a period of fat profits for traders who hurried metal to America before the levies kicked in. A large premium for New York futures over London evaporated.
“The blow-out in the CME-LME spread has been touted as one of the most profitable commodity trades in modern history,” Daniel Ghali of TD Securities Inc. wrote in a note. “In a single session, the White House’s proclamation on copper tariffs annihilated the spread and catalyzed CME copper’s largest intraday fall on record.”
Copper futures on Comex in New York fell by 22% as traders recalibrated the value of metal in the US versus the rest of the world.

Over the Weekend!
The Price Of Gold From 2021-22 Has Long Rejected ‘Bidenflation’
Considering the price of gold throughout 2021, it averaged out to roughly $1,798/ounce, meaning the value of the dollar actually rose around 3 percent right at the time that the economy-sapping tax that is government spending continued under Biden, and allegedly caused “inflation.” To be clear, government spending is the worst tax of all exactly because it substitutes central planning of resources by the government for that of the private sector. Still, it logically doesn’t cause higher prices, or “inflation,” and it didn’t if gold is to be believed.
