First to Report: Russian Gold Breaks Away from London – A New Era Dawns

Russia’s new gold exchange severs London ties, challenging Western price control and signaling a seismic power shift in the global precious metals and financial order.

In a transformative move shaking the bedrock of the international precious metals market, Russia is preparing to launch its own gold trading platform, decisively severing ties with the London Stock Exchange and the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). This bold initiative signals not only a dramatic assertion of financial sovereignty, but a direct challenge to three centuries of Western dominance over global gold pricing.

St. Petersburg, Russia – Russia, the world’s second-largest gold producer, will begin trading physical gold on the St. Petersburg International Mercantile Exchange (SPIMEX) by year-end, in a strategic move to establish domestic price benchmarks and reduce reliance on the London’s LBMA Bullion benchmark.

Michael Oliver Just Predicted The Price Of Silver Will Hit $160-$240

Today Michael Oliver, the man who worked directly with the Chairman of the Comex during the wild 1970s bull market when the price of silver hit an all-time record of $50, and who is well known for his deadly accurate forecasts on stocks, bonds, and major markets, told King World News in one of his greatest audio interviews ever that he predicts the price of silver will hit $160-$240.

July 12 (King World News) – Michael Oliver, Founder of MSA Research:  “What is going on right now is silver is compensating for having been restrained for so long by forces that are trying to hold it back.  And the problem with that is that when it bites them they are on the short side of the market so the squeeze is them exiting what are now vulnerable short positions.  And so I think that is the main driving force in silver in this slingshot move is killing the forces that have stood in its way for several years.

Bloomberg: Silver Rises Highest Since 2011 as US Premiums Grow

Silver markets are flashing red as the amount of physical silver available for immediate delivery in London has plunged to the lowest levels ever recorded.

According to Daniel Ghali, senior commodity strategist at TD Securities, the so-called “free-float” inventory at the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) has dropped to just 155 million ounces. That’s less than a single day’s worth of trading volume for spot silver in London, and it marks an unprecedented squeeze in the world’s most important silver trading hub.

War, Debt, and Distraction: The Hidden Collapse Behind the Iran Hype

While we are all having our attention directed towards the war with Iran, we should always be looking at the “why.” Keeping in mind the absolutely true adage that all wars are bankers’ wars, I noted this from ZeroHedge.

So while we’re being directed towards the Middle East, I note the easing of the capital rule on banks. This — together with the war — are absolutely totally part of the same equation, despite the fact that not one in a 100 folks will ever know it or realize it, and for that very reason it will progress. Here is the problem…

The US government has quietly initiated a stealth liquidity backdoor for banks by easing capital requirements on Treasury trades.

Administration Takes Steps to Target 2 Officials Who Investigated Trump

The Trump administration appears to be targeting officials who oversaw the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s connections to Russia, examining the actions of the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey and the former C.I.A. director John O. Brennan, according to people familiar with the situation.

John Ratcliffe, the C.I.A. director and a harsh critic of his Democratic-appointed predecessors, has made a criminal referral of Mr. Brennan to the F.B.I., accusing him of lying to Congress, officials said. The bureau is also scrutinizing Mr. Comey for his role in the Russia investigation, other officials said, although the exact basis for an inquiry remains unclear.
