As a result of data released over the past week (mostly, the last three days), it seems clear to me that we may be facing a market emergency in Comex silver futures.
I am trying hard not to be alarmist, but what I see alarms the heck out of me -- to the point that I believe we are at the most critical juncture in Comex silver since the peak of prices back in early 1980, when all sorts of emergency measures were enacted to deal with the Hunt Brothers that are debated to this day, 43 years later.
Are the BRICS ready to trade one master for another?

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Prompted by the confiscation of Russian assets by the United States and its Western European allies, governments, central banks, and even mainstream news organizations are acknowledging what they should have known all along: that the more you use another nation's currency, the more subservient to that nation you become.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
London metals trader Andrew Maguire, speaking on this weekend's "Live from the Vault" program from Kinesis Money, says central banks keep using the "exchange for physicals" mechanism of the New York Commodities Exchange to obtain gold at a discount in the London market. Official demand is so great, Maguire says, that the discount can't last much longer.

Why isn't gold dead yet?
It hasn't served a vital economic function since the government stopped treating it as money back in 1971. Actually, you could argue it stopped being necessary long before that.

Aside from speculation, there hasn't been official confirmation by any BRICS nations that they will either issue a new currency backed by gold or peg their currencies to gold any time soon.

The U.S. dollar's reserve currency status is one of America's greatest strengths, but President Joe Biden seems hellbent on toppling the dollar from its throne through both his domestic and foreign policy agenda.
Americans need to pay attention because we've seen this movie before, and it doesn't end well.

The importance of Russia's announcement that a new gold-backed trade currency is on the BRICS meeting agenda for August 22—24 in Johannesburg seems to have gone completely over everyone's heads, with mainstream media not even reporting it.
