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.

“Silver’s been a laggard, and some would refer to it as the Cinderella metal, because it always misses the ball. Having said that, silver has finally woken up and broken above some key technical resistance,” independent analyst Ross Norman said. If current momentum continued, silver could challenge the $35 level, he added.

“Silver has a long history of higher volatility than gold, and that when gold makes a decisive move, silver’s amplitude is usually 2.0-2.5 times that of gold,” StoneX analyst Rhona O’Connell said in a recent note.

Gold has reached new all-time highs, and the gold-to-silver ratio now exceeds 90:1. Such a high ratio has often signaled an impending breakout for silver prices. It indicates that silver could be undervalued, and we may be on the verge of a major price surge. Sometimes, if you miss a price run-up for gold, you can make up for it by buying silver instead as it catches up to its yellow cousin.

“Taking hundreds of hours to produce, the masterworks crafted from gold and silver feature highlights from Paul’s career and his journey to becoming one of Britain’s most successful artists in history.

“The impressive five-kilogram gold coin has also been hand signed by Paul during his Got Back tour at the end of last year – a symbol of his personal seal of approval of this iconic one-of-one piece.”

People can bid for the coins online up until March 19, when the auction ends, with bidding starting at one US dollar.
