Gold hovers near $4,450 as the market signals more than just a bull run—it’s a warning. Decades of relentless money printing have hollowed out the dollar, and investors are waking up, stacking “junk silver” and physical metal. Jeffrey Tucker, founder of the Brownstone Institute, warns of a second wave of inflation heading into the 2026 midterms.

“I would not be at all surprised to see inflation of 3% or higher,” he says, calling any rate cuts “disastrous.” The real danger? A crisis of confidence. The fiat system is losing trust, and history could repeat the 1970s.
