The Gold price collapses as U.S. short end bond yields and U.S. Dollar surge. Oversold and holding above 1845. Awaiting a Bitcoin crash as a feigned inflation hedge. History repeats ala end of 2022.



10 year yields are now at year-to-date highs of 4.67% in tandem with the U.S. Dollar which is also surging, this of course has collapsed the Gold price, which over the many years is less of an inflation hedge and more of a Doomsday hedge.  Please refer to Chart 1.  As the liquidity hungry market is still working through Trillions of dollars worth of juice, it remains chasing yields and the USD is now offering a juicier return over most Foreign Exchange and speculative holdings such as Bitcoin, which is the bubble from hell.    Add if BTC does blow up soon and it takes a couple of banks, venture 'crypto' capitalists and illiquid Crypto exchanges with it, there should be NO bailout this time.  BTC is not an inflation hedge, but a greed train and yes, conjob.  And yes, if the Fed do indeed return to a rate bias, via their slowmo metrics, the BTC price will sink (history repeats ala Nov/Dec 2022). 

At the end of the day, the market is what the market is and one should be aware more than not.  

Gold is holding above its price support $1845 and is oversold.

Can 10 YR hit 5.00%?  And can the DXY (USD) punch through 110?
