Gold Fights Financial Control Grid – Catherine Austin Fitts
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (Saturday Night Post)
Catherine Austin Fitts (CAF), publisher of “The Solari Report,” is back with a new cutting-edge publication called “Plunder.” CAF has been pushing gold (and silver) as an investment for the past few years.
The record high price of the yellow metal has proven her right. In order for the few to control and steal the assets of the many, they have to build what CAF calls a “financial control grid.”
What can help common people fight the control grid being built in front of their eyes? Buy the oldest money on the planet. CAF says, “We are seeing an increased move to institute a control grid.
For example, you have the PM of England standing up and saying if you don’t have a digital ID, you can’t work. People are saying, wait a minute, I want my money outside the system because this system is beginning to act in criminal ways and manic ways.
We are seeing changes in policies at the federal level that make people nervous. So, the reality is gold is simple. Everybody can understand it. . . . Gold is looking attractive, and it is being remonetized.
It’s not just by central bankers, now we see states around the United States making gold legal tender. . .. Silver has lagged dramatically, but silver is catching up.”
Is there something wrong with the financial system for gold and silver to be flashing these warning signs with record high prices?
CAF says, “There is something very wrong with the financial system, and that is the financial system is being used to institute a control grid. If they succeed instituting an all-digital financial system that includes AI (artificial intelligence), a digital ID and an all-digital financial system, then we are looking at the end of currency
Now that you have printed so much money, you want to get control of the real assets, and that’s what they have been doing. . .. The game of growing the debt is over. Like the game of musical chairs, we are all going to scramble to get control of the real assets.
This is why they have been pushing programmable money because you are trying to suck them out of the real assets while they build the control grid and while they jump in and get control of the real assets. . .. What I keep telling everybody is to focus on what is real, and focus on what you can understand.”
In closing, CAF gives many ideas and strategies to thwart the plunder such as everyone increasing the use of cash, making good food and health choices, not financing your enemies and acquiring hard assets such as farmland and gold, which CAF says is “starting a new bull market.”
There is much more in the 58-minute interview.

Frank26 There's no other currency on this planet more valuable than the Iraqi dinar, not even the American dollar can touch it.
Militia Man Iraq is going to be a pillar. It's going to be a foundation stone in the Middle East. Notice how the Middle East has cooled down significantly? Iran's been quiet. We haven't had missiles flying in Iraq anymore. You have the neighboring countries big peace deal going on. It's calm. It's really good. It gives confidence to International investors...Now you see article that Iraq is a beacon, it's the show, it's a new showpiece, hence CNBC picks it up.
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: They came on television channel 8 saying we are in the final stages of negotiations on the HCL. They told us that directly. It's interesting because they told us they're lifting 3 zeros to give us purchasing value. Maybe that's why they say they're going to give us the HCL... FRANK: The HCL is here where it belongs. Let them vote for it...I'm sorry there is no more negotiations on the HCL. Why do you think you're in DC...with Oliver Wyman? ...This is fantastic news...
Alasdair McLeod: Debt ALWAYS Destroys Fiat Currencies
VRIC Media: 10-18-2025
In this interview, Darrell sits down with economist and educator, Alasdair Macleod, to unpack the deepening global monetary and geopolitical shifts reshaping markets.
Macleod explains why China’s tightening grip on rare earths and silver signals a broader decoupling from the U.S., how surging bullion demand exposes a looming silver squeeze, and why he believes the fiat currency era is nearing its end.
Macleod lays out why gold especially physical gold remains the cornerstone of financial survival in today's world

This week marks another crucial pivot point in global finance and geopolitics. As we navigate the complex currents driving the anticipated Global Currency Reset (GCR), Jon Dowling delivers his weekly RV (Revaluation) report, focusing on the latest developments in reconstruction funding, political volatility, and decisive shifts in the commodities and cryptocurrency markets.
The primary focus this week remains the Middle East, where geopolitical stability is directly tied to the flow of massive reconstruction funds—the very funds necessary to trigger the next stages of the GCR.

This week marks another crucial pivot point in global finance and geopolitics. As we navigate the complex currents driving the anticipated Global Currency Reset (GCR), Jon Dowling delivers his weekly RV (Revaluation) report, focusing on the latest developments in reconstruction funding, political volatility, and decisive shifts in the commodities and cryptocurrency markets.
The primary focus this week remains the Middle East, where geopolitical stability is directly tied to the flow of massive reconstruction funds—the very funds necessary to trigger the next stages of the GCR.
Following the recent peace summit in Egypt, the foundation has been laid for the substantial release of capital necessary for rebuilding.
This capital is specifically earmarked for Iraq and Iran. The hosts stressed that the anticipated revaluation of certain global currencies is intrinsically linked to the successful deployment of these funds.
This process signifies a move toward regional stability and economic sovereignty, which remains a core pillar of the new global financial architecture.
However, where significant financial power is about to shift, opposition always follows.
The high stakes involved in these global financial transitions are signaling resistance from entrenched interests unwilling to relinquish control.
After recent, strong rallies, both silver and gold have experienced minor pullbacks this week. This consolidation is seen as healthy, but investors are encouraged to remain vigilant. Precious metals continue to act as essential hedges during periods of escalating global uncertainty.
As predicted in previous reports, crude oil prices are continuing their downward trend. This sustained decline impacts global energy markets and reflects anticipated shifts in energy policy and consumption patterns linked to the emerging financial paradigm.
Despite the current atmosphere of tension and market fluctuations, the report reiterated a theme of ultimate optimism. Reference was made to prophetic insights previously shared by Kim Clement, suggesting that while the world endures immediate turmoil, a monumental, positive financial shift is imminent.
This shift is expected to manifest notably in the cryptocurrency and precious metals sectors, bringing a breakthrough to those who have remained patient and watchful.
As the month of October draws to a close, the pace of global events is accelerating. The successful movement of reconstruction funds and the resolution of political volatility in key regions remain the critical markers for the next official phase of the Global Currency Reset.
Stay informed, stay vigilant, and remember that breakthroughs often follow the periods of greatest turbulence.
Watch the full video from Jon Dowling for further insights and detailed analysis of these complex global developments.
It is imperative to state clearly: This report is focused on sharing information and analysis of global events. It is not financial, investment, or trading advice. Always conduct your own due diligence and consult a certified professional before making any financial decisions.

FRANK: No gentlemen, this is purposeful. This has a reason. If they would have just sprung this on you it would have been a disaster...They're trying to tell us something...
Walkingstick It's not a float at the onset because the Iraqi dinar will be market driven. The supply and demand that is going to be put on the new currency with the new rate for the IQD will drive the value instantly. Supply and demand will determine the real effective exchange rate instead of 1 to 1 or even a float.
Jeff Article quote: "There is no intention to float the exchange rate of the dinar." Why can't the do that? The budget is calculated off the currency value...If the value of the currency were to change significantly, say more than 20%, that would force them to amend the budget. They're not going to keep amending the budget.

Silver Market Collapsing! "The Great Silver Shortage Has Begun" - Mike Maloney & Vince Lanci
10-17-2025
For decades, silver traded quietly in the background—steady, overlooked, and predictable.
Then came a shock that ripped through the system. Mike Maloney from GoldSilver.com says silver lease rates, which normally hover around zero—between minus half a percent and plus one percent—suddenly exploded to around 33%.
Imagine your mortgage rate jumping from 1% to 33% overnight. That kind of move doesn’t happen in a stable market. It signals stress, shortage, and panic beneath the surface.
London’s silver market is running dry. Vince Lanci says the city is facing a full-blown liquidity crisis—there simply isn’t enough physical silver to meet its own demand.
The vaults are thinning out, and the backup reserves London once relied on have all but vanished. In the past, this wasn’t an issue. If London needed silver, it could lease or buy it from the U.S., China, or major producers.
Silver doesn’t vanish—it can always be melted, moved, or reused. But the problem now isn’t that silver has disappeared; it’s that there’s too little available above ground.
Global mine output has been declining for years, and most of today’s production comes as a byproduct of zinc and copper mining. With those metals slowing down, less silver is hitting the market.

He notes that open interest continues to rise alongside prices, signaling sustained demand and a lack of short covering among major traders.
Steer explains that the squeeze on physical availability reflects years of structural deficits and intensifying global investment interest.
As the market approaches a potential turning point, he emphasizes the importance of owning physical silver and staying positioned ahead of what could become a historic move higher.

What If Gold Crashes To $3,000 Per Ounce?
What If Gold Crashes To $3,000 Per Ounce?
Notes From the Field by James Hickman (Simon Black) October 16, 2025
A little over a month ago, in early September, after careful analysis and detailed study, my team and I reached an important conclusion. And we started telling our audience almost immediately.
Gold had just crossed $3,500 per ounce, silver had just crossed $40, and many gold and silver mining companies had experienced astonishing gains.
Of course none of this came as a surprise to our readers. We’ve been saying for the past few years that gold in particular was going to go much higher, specifically because foreign governments and central banks were buying up gold by the metric ton as a way to diversify their strategic reserves away from the US dollar.

Notes From the Field by James Hickman (Simon Black) October 16, 2025
A little over a month ago, in early September, after careful analysis and detailed study, my team and I reached an important conclusion. And we started telling our audience almost immediately.
Gold had just crossed $3,500 per ounce, silver had just crossed $40, and many gold and silver mining companies had experienced astonishing gains.
Of course none of this came as a surprise to our readers. We’ve been saying for the past few years that gold in particular was going to go much higher, specifically because foreign governments and central banks were buying up gold by the metric ton as a way to diversify their strategic reserves away from the US dollar.
That extra demand from central banks totaling a few hundred billion dollars sent gold prices rocketing higher. And we also said this trend would continue.
Similarly over the past couple of years, as we were predicting higher gold and silver prices, we also predicted that mining companies would benefit, and generate record revenues and record profits as a result.
At the time those mining companies had been left for dead in financial markets, with share prices so cheap they were practically being given away.
We told our audience over and over again in print and in our podcasts that this wouldn’t last, and that mining companies would surge in value.
And that’s exactly what happened. In fact, many of the companies we featured in our premium investment research are up 3x, 4x, 5x, even 6x this year alone.
But early last month we realized there was another near term catalyst that would likely send these companies’ share prices even higher. These businesses are all publicly traded, and so they have to report their earnings, usually every quarter.
Q1 earnings were great. Q2 earnings were fantastic. But we realized that gold and silver had been rising so quickly, that Q3 earnings—which would be reported sometime in October—would just be out of this world.
We did the math and crunched the numbers ourselves, and based on our analysis, even companies that had risen 4 or 5x were still undervalued based on projected Q3 earnings.
And we anticipated that for many of these companies, their share prices would jump after their Q3 earnings were announced.
The first of those companies reported its earnings earlier this week, and we were absolutely right. Its record profit dazzled investors, and its share price jumped nearly 20% in a day.
It’s also up almost 52% since we made this prediction a month ago.
We’ve also done the math to see what would happen to these businesses if there were a sudden drop in precious metals prices.
Well, to give you an example one of the companies we featured in our investment research, which is up more than 5x, would still be incredibly undervalued.
Based on our analysis, even if gold were to drop below $3,000—roughly 30% from here—that company would still be making money hand over fist, and based on its current share price, still trading at around 5.5x earnings.
Oh, and did I mention they pay a substantial dividend?
It’s not that every mining company is in the same boat. There are thousands of companies out there, and many are just terrible businesses with pitiful management and terrible balance sheets.
But if you’re willing to do the hard work and find the highest quality management, and the most pristine balance sheets, there are still undervalued gems out there.
This is what we focus on in our premium investment research.
And we believe that many of them could see similar upside over the next few weeks as they report bonanza Q3 earnings.

Frank26 Article quote: "Central Bank of Iraq confirmed there is no intentions to float the Iraqi dinar exchange rate" You're saying it for 1 of 2 reasons. #1 You want the speculators to hear you say, "We're not going to float." And then you'll float. #2 You're not going to float and that this is an RI and you're going to come out at $3+ maybe even more to make up the difference of the last 20 years...
Jeff Article quote: "Iraq has increased its gold holdings rom 90 to 170 tons of gold". Yeah, they're absolutely Basil 3 compliant. They're backing the value of their currency with reserves getting ready to revalue and the article clearly states they are ready to delete the zeros, meaning phase out the large currency notes in the very close proximity or future...They have stated in older articles that...old notes with three zeros and small replacement notes without the 3 zeros will coexist at the same value...
Nader From The Mid East Article says they agree to remove three zeros from the currencies...I stick to my word, after the election everything will happen...The election will start on the 26th and the last day of it is on the 11th of November. The good news is for sure they're going to remove their three zeros. They said it now. I know it's going to happen before the end of the year.
They're Not Enough Silver: It's That Simple | Clem Chambers
Liberty and Finance: 10-15-2025
Clem Chambers explains that silver’s explosive rise above $53 stems from deep structural shortages and geopolitical tension.
He contrasts gold’s demand—driven by central bank accumulation—with silver’s more retail-driven surge, noting that only eight times more silver than gold is mined each year, yet the price ratio remains around 80-to-1.
Chambers links both metals’ rallies to a larger U.S.-China industrial and technological conflict, where nations are stockpiling real assets amid rearmament and reindustrialization.
Silver’s backwardation, he argues, signals immediate physical demand overwhelming paper supply—proof that the market is “running out” of deliverable metal.
While warning that prices may overshoot, Chambers still sees triple-digit silver as plausible if geopolitical and monetary “natural stupidity” persist.

Surging Gold EXPOSES How Dollar System Is Being Abandoned
Surging Gold EXPOSES How Dollar System Is Being Abandoned
Taylor Kenny: 10-14-2025
For the first time since 1996, central banks now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries.
That’s not a coincidence. It’s a silent vote of no confidence in the dollar.
It’s no secret that the world of finance can feel like a labyrinth, with complex systems and jargon that often leave the average person feeling lost.
Surging Gold EXPOSES How Dollar System Is Being Abandoned
Taylor Kenny: 10-14-2025
For the first time since 1996, central banks now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries.
That’s not a coincidence. It’s a silent vote of no confidence in the dollar.
It’s no secret that the world of finance can feel like a labyrinth, with complex systems and jargon that often leave the average person feeling lost.
But sometimes, a significant shift occurs, a seismic tremor that even the most casual observer should notice. According to a recent video from ITM Trading featuring Taylor Kenney, such a shift is not only happening but is accelerating – a profound repositioning of gold at the very heart of the global monetary system.
For the past three years, gold prices have been on a spectacular ascent, nearly tripling in value. This isn’t just a minor fluctuation; it’s a powerful signal, a message largely flying under the radar or dismissed by many as a mere market anomaly.
Kenney’s core argument is potent: gold is re-emerging as the ultimate monetary anchor, driven by a deep and pervasive erosion of trust in the US dollar and fiat currencies worldwide.
Let’s unpack why this is happening. The United States is grappling with a colossal and seemingly unsustainable debt burden, approaching a staggering $38 trillion.
The annual cost of simply rolling over this debt is around $7 trillion, an amount that forces the US to become heavily reliant on foreign entities to purchase dollar-denominated assets. This delicate balancing act, however, has revealed its vulnerabilities.
A pivotal moment, as highlighted in the video, was the 2022 freezing of Russian dollar reserves. This action sent shockwaves through international financial circles, exposing the inherent risks and lack of true monetary sovereignty that foreign central banks face when holding US dollars.
The implication is stark: if these assets can be frozen for one nation, they can potentially be frozen for others. This revelation has spurred a crucial pivot, a move away from the dollar and towards gold.
Why gold? Because it possesses qualities that fiat currencies simply cannot replicate.
Gold carries no counterparty risk – meaning its value isn’t dependent on another party’s promise to pay. It cannot be arbitrarily frozen by geopolitical decree, nor can its value be diluted by the endless printing of money. For centuries, through every imaginable geopolitical upheaval and economic storm, gold has remained the unchallenged store of value.
The implications of this shift are already being felt. For the first time since 1996, central banks are holding more gold than US Treasuries. This isn’t a subtle indicator; it’s a resounding declaration of lost confidence in dollar assets and a clear sign that the dollar’s reign as the world’s reserve currency is beginning to wane.
The ITM Trading video sounds a stark warning: as the dollar’s dominance fades, we can expect desperate measures from the Federal Reserve.
Think liquidity and aggressive money printing, all aimed at maintaining a fragile illusion of stability. The inevitable consequence? A currency crisis, where escalating inflation morphs into hyperinflation, decimating the purchasing power of the dollar. Your savings, your paycheck, your very standard of living will be severely impacted.
History offers cautionary tales, like the 1933 gold confiscation and revaluation under President Roosevelt. While this event wiped out personal wealth overnight for many, it dramatically rewarded those who held gold. Such “currency resets” are a stark reminder of how quickly fortunes can change.
The presenter’s call to action is clear and urgent: prepare yourself. The path to wealth protection and the creation of generational wealth will no longer be paved with dollar-based assets. The solution, according to the video, lies in acquiring physical gold and silver.
For those seeking to understand this accelerating monetary reset and how to safeguard their wealth, ITM Trading is offering a free educational resource on currency resets and gold protection. They also encourage viewers to connect with professional analysts for personalized guidance on navigating these turbulent financial waters.
This isn’t just another financial prediction; it’s a wake-up call. The world is undergoing a profound monetary transformation, and gold is reclaiming its rightful place. Are you ready to listen?
In this video, Taylor breaks down what’s fueling gold’s surge, why the dollar is losing trust, and what that means for your savings.

“Western fiat currencies are in real trouble,” warns billionaire investor Frank Giustra in an interview with Daniela Cambone.
He paints a grim picture of the financial system and calls for an imminent monetary reset that will drive gold higher.
“It’s not a bubble... and this is a once-in-a-century dynamic.” He points out that the driving force is the central banks’ frantic gold buying. “So anything could happen that triggers a sell-off. In a debt-ridden environment, it can really become a spiral,” he warns.

Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin reports from Aruba that the London silver market is experiencing an unprecedented liquidity crisis, with massive backwardation and lease rates soaring above 100%, surpassing even the 1980 Hunt Brothers silver squeeze.
Schectman describes premiums on U.S. Silver Eagles and Gold Eagles skyrocketing as inventories across mints, refiners, and wholesalers dry up, creating what he calls a “broken market.”
He warns that the divergence between spot and futures prices is making it nearly impossible for dealers to hedge, leading some major wholesalers to temporarily halt trading.
According to Schectman, the stress on COMEX and LBMA signals a global shift toward physical metals as investors lose faith in paper contracts.
He advises buyers to cost average their positions rather than wait for a pullback, emphasizing that this time “feels different” and may mark the beginning of a systemic shift in the precious metals market.

Dr. Shelton reveals that her idea is gaining traction in Washington – a gold-linked U.S. Treasury bond that could redefine America’s monetary system.
Dr. Shelton, Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and Author of 'Good as Gold,' discusses how these bonds could restore faith in the U.S. dollar, offset currency debasement fears, and bring the dollar back to a form of sound money.
Could this be America’s Independence Day Reset – a turning point that re-anchors the dollar to gold and restores monetary trust?
Dr. Shelton also tells Makori about a potential Fort Knox gold audit that could be in motion under the Gold Reserve Transparency Act and explores the implications of a gold revaluation, the U.S. strategic position in global finance, and the future of monetary systems anchored to gold.
