In another sign that things aren’t so great on Main Street, bankruptcy inquiries hit pandemic-level highs in Q1. More and more people are worried about a looming recession. The mainstream blames these economic worries on tariffs, but it’s pretty clear Americans started feeling the squeeze long before the trade war. Tariffs may be the pin that pops the debt-riddled bubble economy, but if not, there is another pin out there. Most families don’t go from “everything is great” to “we need to declare bankruptcy” in a matter of days. It is typically the last resort. In other words, this surge in bankruptcy inquiries likely reflects economic struggles that have been ongoing for months.

Gold has outperformed most asset classes for the last 25 years. If you think about it, that is a pretty remarkable run. Economic conditions varied widely, but gold held up better in tough times as well as during periods of growth. In all likelihood, no one who held gold through the past couple of decades regrets it. Why has gold done so well, and when will that change? Clint Siegner Money Metals - Buy Gold, Silver & Precious Metals for Investment #SellYourGold #When #PreciousMetals #Investing #Commodities

Central banks continued to stockpile gold in the first quarter. Official net gold purchases came in at 244 tonnes, 21 percent below Q1 2024 (310 tonnes), but 25 percent above the five-year quarterly average. As the World Gold Council put it, central bank gold buying remained “comfortably within the quarterly range of the last three years.” Official central bank gold demand topped 1,000 tonnes for the third straight year in 2024. To put that into perspective, central bank gold reserves increased by an average of just 473 tonnes annually between 2010 and 2021.
