a single 20kg dumbbell would cost 5000-6000 usd.
I have a better idea. Let’s create a new revenue stream for central banks by turning their gold reserves into gym equipment. You can come to exercise at central banks vault-gym conversions, and lift solid gold barbells! That’s way more gangsta! Never rusts.

I want to start a gym equipment company that makes everything out of tungsten instead of steel or cast iron.
This way you could truly justify every home gym purchase as an “investment.”

Posts like this are precisely why it so important you're careful who you follow. This displays a lack of knowledge of even the basics...

Honestly, this should make gold bugs uncomfortable. We just watched a real stress test, and gold failed it. This is supposed to be gold’s moment. Instead, gold went from roughly $5,600/oz at the late-January high to about $4,354/oz by today. that’s about $7.3 TRILLION erased. A "safe haven" that breaks when the world gets more dangerous is not as safe as advertised. I’ve studied this long enough to know the difference between a story people repeat and an asset that actually survives pressure. Gold still has history. But history didn’t save it from getting wrecked when the market finally mattered. Where are the gold bugs?

This is leverage being violently flushed from one of the major physical gold hubs. China strategically reduced leverage over the past months by cracking down on hubei, re-inteoducing VAT, introducing limits, etc. Once leverage is gone from the middle eastern gold hubs the spring coil is reloaded. Ukraine/2022 is not comparable, they are not a major physical gold hub 💁♂️

Gold is now down 8% from before the war (blue). That may be due to the crazy run-up in precious metals and people locking in gains now that uncertainty is so high. But - the longer this sell-off lasts - the more damage it does to the "debasement trade..."

@AlexMasonCrypto no, they are not expecting gold price to triple. you can make money on these options simply if the price moves closer. don't have to hold it to maturity, and can offload early for profit.

🚨 THIS IS UNUSUAL
Insiders continue buying gold options at $15,000–$20,000 on COMEX for December 2026.
Current price: $4,961.
This means THEY EXPECT THE GOLD PRICE TO TRIPLE.
This buying didn’t start during the rally.
It started after gold printed ~$5,600 and then dumped hard.
That’s the moment retail sold.
Insiders kept buying.
Even below $5,000.
Now they’re sitting around 11,000 contracts.
That tells you everything.
Nobody puts this on because they’re optimistic.
They don’t have to.
BTW, I’ve predicted all the market tops and bottoms for the last 15 years.
When I EXIT the markets completely, I’ll say it here publicly, like I always do.
Many people will wish they followed me sooner.

@J_Wise_geology @tonitrades_ News out of china claims banks are restricting app access to slow down everyone trying to buy this dip. In Singapore I see people queuing on the street to buy bullion despite BullionStar’s S$20,000 (~15k usd) minimum order requirement.
English
@tonitrades_ Wondering if the momentum out of China is sustainable given their 5-year long real estate crash? How much of the buying in the east pertains to people on the street seeking safe havens for savings and how much is state sponsored using debt?
English
@satoritrade I can't find another day with similar draw down in history, but to be fair tradingview only has daily data from 1991. The closest on record is in 2006 April with -19%
English
@satoritrade In 2011 it took ~6 days from the top to drop 33%, and in 2026 it took <1 day to drop 38%.
English
@VincentCrypt46 i’m not sure where the 190usd coming from, Shanghai/SGE physical price is ~125usd, and in Singapore/Bullionstar sells for about ~110usd; you can check both on their websites.

@barkmeta 15T went nowhere. E.g. the silver drawdown was achieved with a single ~350 million short.
English
@barkmeta This was a 12% drop, on 26-Jan there was an even larger 13% drop, and on 25-Dec a 16% drop. BAU
English
@Ben__Rickert hoards of respectable traders warn that such 6 sigma moves we have seen to unfold in gold and silver have the tendency to violently reverse, but i fear what all of them are missing is exactly what you just underlined… this is a once in history type event and it’s just started.
English
Gold and silver at record highs and the crowd is still confused.
“Too late?”
No — too late is when your savings buy nothing.
This isn’t an investment. It’s an exit.
The dollar is on a one-way path to zero and most people are sleepwalking into it.
It's up $400 in the past 24 hours. You are watching history unfold. The dollar bubble is bursting.
English
@barkmeta I’m not sure where your quotes are from, the latest Shanghai price for 1kg silver is 17004 CNY or about $78/oz. The highest ever price at the SGE was about $89/oz, but that went down to $78/oz by the last close. en.sge.com.cn/h5_data_Silver…

🚨 THEY ARE RIGGING SILVER TO SAVE THE BANKS.
The charts say SILVER is $71, but actual prices on street are much higher.
🇯🇵 Physical Silver $130
🇦🇪 Physical Silver $115
🇨🇳 Physical Silver $110
🇺🇸 COMEX Paper Silver $71
How is this possible? Because if SILVER charts go to $130 (the TRUE value), several banks go insolvent OVERNIGHT from margin called short positions.
They’re using paper contracts to force the SILVER price down and protect them from liquidation. The charts are a lie.
We are witnessing MANIPULATION on a scale that’s never been seen before.
When the short positions are offloaded, silver price will go vertical to catch up 🪙📈

@ODB123 this is most likely a coding error, like a timestamp accidentally formatted into an integer. happens pretty often. you wanna pull a value at a timestamp, you accidentally pass the timestamp only. bam, large number appears.

👀....Barclays accidentally leaked MOASS endgame settings.
$11,669,634,048,000,000 =
$GME + every naked short ever written + every ETF loop + every counterparty’s tears.
In other words…
pre-split / post-squeeze / post-liquidity-reset / final boss level.
Buckle up indeed 😏🚀

@Nostre_damus …but to be fair, everything is red. where is all the money going to? i can’t accept the “bonds narrative”
English
@spomboy inverse-dxy algos. the correlation broke above $2000/oz but these past weeks it’s back.
English
@TheBubbleBubble i’d say don’t worry about the comex and lbma price, the only chart worth watching is the SGE. For example silver is not a double top there at all but a clear breakout and retest.
English
Don’t worry about volatility in precious metals today.
They’re doing exactly what I expect, which is to bounce around in a sideways consolidation for a few more weeks and then break out to fresh all-time highs.
This is designed to scare the dumb money.

investment grade bullions through approved retail sellers are still exempt, so this doesn’t imply the otherwise logistical impossibility of all retail traffic having to go through SGE if they want tax exemption. but if the VAT exemption was applied on jewelry until today and 16% VAT kicks in overnight, that will definitely dampen jewelry demand. Doesn’t matter if that VAT exemption was given legitimately or hush hush under the table by shifty Shuibei jewlery stores. Regardless of the nuances here, the bloomberg article was picked up by virtually all news outlet, so i would expect algos trade that sentiment monday morning, even if it will last short.
English
that sounds pretty normal. you need to pay vat for retail stuff, jewelry, whatnot.
allegedly this is to crack down on Shuibei, which allegedly moves almost as much gold as SGE.
in theory this should steer traffic towards approved sources, but i’d reckon jewlery demand will go down if they were really giving out tax-breaks for gold jewlery.
whatever the truth is, the algos will read the bloomberg article which had been copied over to all major media sites already, but like word by word, and it seems to be painting a not so accurate picture of what’s going on, so i’d still expect a selloff on monday morning 💁♂️
