Liquidity Accelerant for the Fiat

Although we put Aurumecho notes on “the bench” in Feb 2026, the discovery of the Fibonacci low in the gold price last week from its Feb high has compelled us to share what we consider to be the continuation of one of the greatest investment opportunities of a generation. As usual, all mistakes in this note are humanly intentional so seek advice somewhere else, this isn’t advice....

Hey now, hey now, don’t green it’s over

If the old investment mantra “as goes January so goes the year” applies to the rest of 2026, we’re in for a hell of a ride. It’s not a stretch to state the financial system is being reset, not in the future, but it’s happening right now. We almost decided to discontinue Aurumecho notes this year, on account of everything we’ve written of over the last 18 years is now happening – job done....

In the pages of past Aurumecho notes over the last 16 years, we have constantly noted that we’d probably get no joy when gold retakes its inevitable position of value stability in this financialised world, despite the potential uplift in portfolio values. This is true today, for gold to shine the world would have changed, and it has. No more fiscal can kicking, rubber has met the road despite the “business as usual” demeanour of MSM not wanting alarm the peeps with any truthful analysis....

Another week, another record high for equity markets and a great set up for the start of the second half of 2025. Financial markets have now completely discarded the mid East events of the last couple of weeks, and who even remembers the April tariff tantrum? It’s just onwards and upwards. Investors were most fortunate that the mid-East agitators of the last few weeks were able to agree to conduct the most serious of actions only on weekends, allowing for minimal disruption to financial markets, giving “participants” time to manage the Monday open!...

In a world of device zombiefication it’s hard for investors to finish a read that doesn’t sufficiently entertain. Long time supporters of these notes know we are generally up for the challenge but don’t really care. Such is the importance of recognising the seriousness of current investment climate change that we’ll give a brief summary upfront. From now on, for the foreseeable future, asset allocation diversification will require extra care as it relates to…...

What a difference a couple of days makes. Just a week ago we were to lead with this, below, in our most recent note: “When a business or an individual spends more than it makes, it goes bankrupt. When government does it, it just gets bigger then sends you the bill. And when government does it for 40 years, the bill comes in two ways: higher taxes and inflation....

We normally wait for January to end before sharing portfolio ideas with dear readers but the way markets are shaping up early Jan we thought it might pay to get in front of this one. Once again, we are sharing ideas we intend to implement in our own portfolios, and nothing written below should be taken as advice. Recapping 2024, thanks to enormous stimulus participation via global .gov spending, volatility (as measured by “the VIX”) remained relatively low across key asset markets, thus enhancing already bubblicious valuations in participating asset markets....

Finally, the Obama era in the US has come to an end. We can only to smile to the army of “orange man bad” enthusiasts imagining their ship only just starting to sink. The most amazing aspect of the last 2 months of US election activity is the fact that most “orange man bad” enthusiasts seem to have never properly bothered to even try to understand what the alternate team “Kamala” was trying to say....

Not sure how many readers of these pages need reminding gold now trades at AUD $4156 on Sunday, 27th of October 2024. It is worth reiterating we could still be in early stages of precious metal investment recognition by many. Western institutional and retail investment participation in this booming sector, as a % of investable assets, remains very low. Gold and gold miners as a percentage of global assets:...

There is a massive challenge looming in plain sight for asset prices in Australia but before we lay out this threat to long standing Australian domestic bliss, we must make a quick stop at the macro station. In the US, rapid 1% plus declines across the yield curve suggest markets are spooked by something more consequential than CPI or payrolls. We’ve always believed, as nature intended, the legacy imbalances of modern era unconventional central banking are finally coming home to roost....
