A System Fails, Hard Assets Soar.
Today's news cycle was relentless. The U.S. government is shut down, and gold has surged to a new all-time high near $3,900/oz.
At the same time, the digital asset world saw two bombshell developments: a Trump-linked firm announced plans for a crypto debit card, and new IRS guidance just opened the door for mass corporate Bitcoin adoption.
To make sense of this historic divergence, I sat down with Emmy-award winning journalist Natalie Brunell for an essential market update. We connected the dots on Washington's fiscal decay, the institutional case for Bitcoin, and why the "hard asset" thesis has never been more relevant.
This is a conversation you don't want to miss.

"Gold is 'plain scary' at these levels..."
That's the latest warning from Bloomberg's Mike McGlone, who joined us on Kitco News to break down why the market is sending major conflicting signals right now.
He sees a "profound reversion cycle" on the horizon and warns that historically low stock market volatility could be the calm before the storm. In our new interview, he lays out his case for $40 crude oil and explains why its divergence from gold is a "very scary indication" for the global economy.
Watch our full interview with Mike to get his complete forecast for Q4 and beyond.

Our new, in-depth interview with market veteran Clem Chambers is LIVE!
One of the most stunning claims from the interview was about a major loophole in the sanctions against Russia. Chambers stated: "America is buying all the platinum and palladium that Russia will sell it... There's no sanctions on platinum and palladium from Russia to America... because they can't do without it.”
This is just one of many powerful insights from the conversation. After you've watched, let us know in the comments: What do you think is the biggest story for investors heading into 2026? Is it the coming economic boom, the crypto winter, or the rising geopolitical risk?
Watch the full, must-see forecast.

In our latest interview, Saxo Bank's Head of Commodity Strategy, Ole Hansen, declared that we are at the "cusp of an energy transition super cycle."
He also broke down the breaking news in copper, calling the simultaneous mine shutdowns "more than the market can take right now," and made the case for why "$50 silver" is on the table. We also covered his view that gold could see a "healthy" correction to $3,600 before its next leg up.
Our question to you: Do you agree with Ole's supercycle call, or do you think a global slowdown will put a cap on the commodity rally?

Our new, in-depth discussion with Axel Merk is live now, and he dropped some major insights on where the markets are heading.
A few key takeaways from Axel:
We are in the "single greatest margin expansion opportunity for the mining sector in a generation."
He names Kevin Warsh as the person who could "reform the Fed in earnest."
He believes the Fed's modern playbook is to always "foam the markets" with easier policy in response to a downturn.
Watch the full interview to hear his detailed analysis, especially his take on the historical parallels to 1929. We'd love to hear your thoughts on that in the comments!

About a month ago, technical analyst Gary Wagner joined us and made a huge call:
"My upper level target... is $3,700 plus for a Troy ounce of gold.”
His forecast was spot on. Gold hit that level, but has since pulled back.
Now, the big question is: what's next? Before we get Gary's updated forecast, we want to know what you think.
Where do you predict the price of gold will be by the end of the year?
And stay tuned for Gary's analysis dropping, later today.
