Gold Surpasses $1,900! Get You Some!
Gold surpassed $1,900 last week and stayed above that new floor for the rest of the week, closing out May at $1,912 an ounce. Gold had not closed above $1,900 since the first week of January and silver surpassed $28 an ounce for only the second time since September 1, 2020, so the metals were on a strong surge going into Memorial Day. In the past 10 days, the 10-year Treasury yields have come down about 10 basis points, from 1.68% to 1.58%, giving gold an advantage while inflation is rising – pushing “real” interest rates further below zero. Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index continues to meander lower, falling 1.5% during May, while the Biden Administration continues to over-spend and the Federal Reserve continues to be “accommodative” or more commonly known as, printing money.

The first four months of the Biden Administration feel eerily similar to the four full YEARS of the Carter Presidency as foreign powers sense the new weakness in Washington. So, they are flexing their muscles overseas, while the spendthrift Congress is creating record deficits and high inflation at home. This may be bad for America but it is good for gold and rare coins!
