The U.S. Treasury Just Opened the Door to Gold

The President of the United States just told you how the $40 trillion gets paid. With your purchasing power.

The 10-year yield is sitting at its highest level since 2002. Central banks are passing on fatter Treasury coupons to stack more gold. And Treasury just brought in Judy Shelton, the economist who has spent decades arguing gold belongs back at the center of the system. Meanwhile, the largest gold hoard on earth is still carried on the books at $42.22 an ounce (an accounting quirk, surely, and not an option being held in reserve).

Washington ran this playbook once already, in 1934. Gold holders came out richer. Everyone holding dollars paid the bill.

So which side of the ledger are you on this time?
