Gold lacks the juice to break through 2000 this week but analysts don’t recommend shorting it

Gold lacks the juice to break through $2,000 this week, but analysts don't recommend shorting it

Gold’s inability to convincingly break above $2,000 an ounce is creating some cautious sentiment in the marketplace, with some analysts saying that prices might need to consolidate in the near term before the precious metal takes a run at its all-time highs.

While analysts are not looking to short gold in the environment, some have said its price action is disappointing as gold has not benefited from a sharp drop in yields and weakness in the U.S. dollar.

 

Currently, at $1,999, gold has ended a three-week winning streak as it looks to close the week roughly unchanged from last Friday. However, prices are down nearly 1% from its opening gap at the start of the week.

Commodity analysts have said that gold continues to be driven by global geopolitical factors as waning fear in the marketplace takes its toll on the precious metal’s safe-haven allure. Although Israel’s war with Hamas continues to rage, the conflict remains within Gaza, keeping the ongoing chaos in the Middle East in check.

"The geopolitical crisis that has fueled gold’s rally is becoming exhausted,” said Christopher Vecchio.

Vecchio said that while a geopolitical event can provide the gold market with tradeable momentum, it does nothing to attract long-term investors. He noted that a gold rally based on a specific geopolitical event needs to see constant escalation to maintain its safe-haven bid.

Vecchio said he exited his gold position last week and will remain on the sidelines in the near-term as he expects prices to consolidate.

"The bulk of gold’s big move is done. But I would not want to short gold as the fundamental backdrop of a weaker dollar and lower bond yields are positive for gold,” he said. "I think gold can continue to grind higher, but it will be a frustrating grind for potential traders.”

David Morrison, senior market analyst at Trade Nation, described gold as a market that is in search of a new catalyst.

Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said that he is neutral on gold; he also noted that a consolidation around current levels would be healthy. The neutral outlook comes after gold saw a nearly 7% rally in October, its best monthly performance since March.

"Gold has paused after rallying almost 200 dollars last month after profit-taking emerged once again above $2,000 per ounce. Having rallied so hard in a short space of time, the market needs consolidating, but so far, the correction has been relatively shallow, with support appearing at $1,953, ahead of $1,933, the 200-day moving average and 38.2% retracement of the mentioned rally,” said Hansen.

On the downside, Hansen said that gold prices would have to fall back to $1,900 an ounce to put this new uptrend at risk.

With little economic data on the docket next week, analysts have said investors will continue to digest the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy decision.

Although the U.S. central bank left interest rates unchanged for the second consecutive time in this tightening cycle, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell maintained his tightening bias.

"Is monetary policy restrictive enough to bring inflation down to 2%? That is what we are asking ourselves," said Powell in his press conference following the monetary policy decision.

"The Fed has left the door open to another rate hike. Even though we are confident that interest rates have already peaked, market participants are nonetheless likely to remain cautious in this respect. Assuming there is no further escalation in the Middle East, the upside potential for the gold price will probably be severely limited,” said Barbara Lambrecht, commodity analyst at Commerzbank.

Markets will get a chance to hear more from Powell as he participates in a panel discussion on "Monetary Challenges in a Global Economy" at a conference in Washington.

The only major economic report to be released next week will be the University of Michigan’s preliminary consumer sentiment survey.

Last month’s revision to the survey surprised markets as one-year consumer inflation expectations rose 4.2%. Powell, during his press conference, dismissed the reading, saying it was an outlier and most consumer surveys show inflation expectations remain "well anchored.”

Both the SEC and the defense request a summary judgment in lawsuit against Terraform Labs and Do Kwon

Both the SEC and the defense request a summary judgment in lawsuit against Terraform Labs and Do Kwon

With justice served for one of the “crypto villains” of 2022 – Sam Bankman-Fried – the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is looking to speed up the process for the other major villain of 2022, Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon.

In May 2022, the $45 billion Terra ecosystem collapsed after its TerraUSD (UST) algorithmic stablecoin lost its U.S. dollar peg. In February, the SEC filed a lawsuit against Terraform Labs and Do Kwon, charging them with securities fraud.

According to a document filed with the courts on Oct. 27, the SEC has asked the judge presiding over the case to make a summary judgment on the claims without a full trial.

“Terraform and Kwon orchestrated a fraudulent scheme that ultimately led to $45 billion in market loss, including devastating losses for U.S. investors,” the filing said. “Defendants fabricated Terra blockchain activity to create the appearance of real-world transactions on the blockchain that did not exist. And they lied to investors about the stability of Terraform’s so-called stablecoin, while concealing the secret deal Defendants had entered into with a third party to save the asset from collapse. When this scheme unraveled, investors in Terraform’s crypto asset securities lost nearly everything.”

“In addition to defrauding investors, Defendants engaged in unregistered public offerings of certain of their crypto-asset securities,” the SEC added. “Defendants distributed LUNA and MIR to intermediaries that were expected to, and did, resell those securities into public trading markets accessible to investors in the U.S.”

“As set forth below and in the SEC’s Statement of Undisputed Material Facts Pursuant to Local Civil Rule 56.1, the evidence that establishes Defendants’ violations is clear, undisputed, and overwhelming,” they said. “The Court should grant summary judgment in the SEC’s favor.”

The filing included more than 45 pages outlining the evidence and arguments against Terraform Labs and Kwon as the SEC made its case for summary judgment.

“Summary judgment is appropriate when the record shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law,” the SEC said, citing Case v. City of New York. “If the moving party meets its initial burden, the burden then shifts to the opposing party to establish a genuine dispute of material fact.”

The SEC presented evidence showing that “Terraform repeatedly violated the Exchange Act” by making “numerous material misrepresentations in statements to investors and potential investors” regarding the depeg of the stablecoin TerraUSD, “and engaged in other deceptive conduct, including causing ‘fake transactions’ to be put on the Terra blockchain.”

“Second, the undisputed record shows that Kwon – as the founder, CEO, and majority shareholder of 92% of Terraform – had the ‘power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of’ Terraform,” they said. “Kwon admitted that he had ultimate authority for decisions at Terraform.”

“Third, Kwon was a culpable participant in Terraform’s deceptive conduct and misrepresentations,” they alleged. “In fact, he was the genesis of that conduct and he repeatedly used Terraform to advance his schemes. Kwon conceived and directed the plan to ‘fake transactions’ on Terraform’s blockchain and then falsely represented them as real.”

“Kwon personally negotiated the deal with [redacted] in May 2021 to restore the peg, and then misrepresented to the public that the algorithm had ‘automatically self-heal[ed]’ the peg,” they said. “At the same time, Kwon directed Terraform employees to omit that information from public statements.”

“No rational jury could conclude that Kwon was not liable for Terraform’s violations of Exchange Act Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder pursuant to Exchange Act Section 20(a),” the SEC argued. “For the foregoing reasons, summary judgment is warranted against Defendants Terraform and Kwon on all of the SEC’s claims.”

  The Kwon Identity: Fugitive Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon arrested using fake papers in Montenegro

In an opposing filing from Kwon’s defense team, his lawyers also asked for a summary judgment on the case, arguing that the judge should reject the SEC’s lawsuit, claiming it has failed to prove he or his firm did anything wrong.

“After two years of investigation, the completion of a discovery period that resulted in the taking of more than 20 depositions, and the exchange of over two million pages of documents and data, the SEC is evidentiarily no closer to proving that the Defendants did anything wrong,” the lawyers wrote.

“Indeed, with the close of fact and expert discovery, the deficiencies in the SEC’s case have gotten worse, as it is now apparent that admissible evidence does not exist to support many of the SEC’s claims and that the SEC knew some of its allegations were false when it filed the Amended Complaint,” they said. “It is evident that the SEC’s preferred witnesses have trafficked in rumor and innuendo about the Defendants, but few, if any, have any firsthand knowledge about anything relevant to this case.”

Kwon’s lawyers provided 35 pages of arguments backing their motion for a summary judgment, and concluded that, “For all the foregoing reasons, the Court should grant summary judgment in its entirety with prejudice.”

Both motions for summary judgment are now in the hands of the presiding judge and will be ruled on in the near future. Kwon is currently detained in Montenegro and has previously asked the court to reject the SEC’s motion to extradite and interview him in the United States.

Gold Price News: Gold Falls for Third Day Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Gold Price News: Gold Falls for Third Day Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Gold is down for its third consecutive day with the precious metal now trading comfortably below $2,000 an ounce.

While safe haven demand continues to be strong amid Israel’s ongoing attacks on Gaza, today also brings the latest Federal Reserve interest rate announcement that will provide a reminder of the “higher for longer” stance of central banks.

As a result, even though gold has dipped slightly from the highs achieved at the end of October, the price remains at a very high level historically with the recent movement more reflective of a slight correction rather than a broader downward trend.

Today’s Fed rate decision is widely expected to see the US central bank keep its rate unchanged at 5.5% but while rates may not rise further, the prospect of any cut in the coming months looks remote. As such, gold will have to face this permanent headwind of high-interest rates, making the non-yield-bearing asset less attractive.

While the peak of gold above $2,000 an ounce may have passed for now, the precious metal is unlikely to slide much further before fresh support rushes in.

Bitcoin price whipsaws on Fed rate decision reclaims support above 34600

Bitcoin price whipsaws on Fed rate decision, reclaims support above $34,600

The broader crypto market experienced a slight uptrend in trading on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve announced that it would be holding interest rates steady in a range of 5.25%-5.5%, the highest level in 22 years.

While rates remain unchanged for the time being, the central bank left the door open for future increases as they work to bring inflation back to their 2% target. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said the committee “is proceeding carefully” and will continue to make decisions “meeting by meeting.”

Stocks climbed higher following the announcement as traders saw the pause as evidence that the risk-on environment has returned. At the close of markets, the S&P, Dow, and Nasdaq finished in the green, up 1.05%, 0.65%, and 1.43%, respectively. Treasury yields sank lower, with the 10-year yield trading around 4.755%

Data provided by TradingView shows that Bitcoin’s (BTC) price whipsawed near midday, spiking to a high of $35,200 before dipping to $34,080. The top crypto has since climbed back above support at $34,600.

BTC/USD Chart by TradingView

Senior Kitco technical analyst Jim Wyckoff noted that “November Bitcoin futures prices [were] a bit weaker in early U.S. trading Wednesday,” and said, “Recent price action has formed a bullish pennant pattern on the daily bar chart.”

“However, prices need to see a bullish upside breakout this week, or the bullish pennant will be negated,” Wyckoff warned. “The BTC bulls still have the solid near-term technical advantage as a price uptrend is in place on the daily bar chart.”

MN Trading analyst Gunter Lackmann said the daily chart for Bitcoin shows its price is “in a bullish consolidation resembling an ascending triangle chart pattern as the 8EMA, a reliable source to look for relative strength, is catching up with price.”

“Currently, the most obvious invalidation of this pattern would be daily candle closes under $34k, but we should also be ready for an intraday retest of the 8EMA, which last got tagged on October 23,” he said. “Upside resistance is at around $34.8k.”

Zooming in on the 1-hour chart, Lackmann said there is a “clear consolidation pattern, especially focused between $34,240 – 34,760.”

He said the “most preferable entry into long exposure here probably would be a raid of the range low ($32.2k) followed by a reclaim of the range.”

“Most conservative traders wait until after the move to the upside (often divided into two – three legs up) completes” to reenter the market, he said. “My targets for those potential legs up from here are the areas of $36 – 38k and $40 – 42k. From there, it will become more likely that we get a retest of the previous HTF range high of around $31.5k, just when the market gets excited for more upside.”

For traders waiting for a significant pullback before opening a position in Bitcoin, market analyst Rekt Captial warned that there are only 100 days left when such an opportunity could present itself.

SushiSwap (SUSHI) was the top performer, with an increase of 46.4%, followed by a gain of 26.8% for Just (JUST), and 16.3% for Uniswap (UNI). Polymesh (POLYX) led the losers with a decline of 11.64%, while MobileCoin (MOB) lost 10.5%, and Centrifuge (CFG) fell by 9%.

The overall cryptocurrency market cap now stands at $1.29 trillion, and Bitcoin’s dominance rate is 52.4%.

The Power Dynamics of A Global Economy: Who Is Ultimately Pulling The Strings?

The Power Dynamics of A Global Economy: Who Is Ultimately Pulling The Strings? 

The question of who controls the global economy can vary depending on one's viewpoint. Some may argue that Mega Banks such as JP Morgan, asset managers like Black Rock, tech giants like Microsoft, or international organizations like the World Economic Forum hold significant influence. However, there is an overarching entity that surpasses these institutions. It is worth noting that these entities share common goals and interests, such as Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), Digital IDs, and Smart Cities. This alignment is not a mere coincidence.

In this article, we will uncover the true power behind the world's most influential institutions. Surprisingly, it is the United Nations that is orchestrating it all. There seems to be a pattern, so it’s worth investigating as to whether it is the UN pulling the strings. We embark on an eye-opening journey through the hidden depths of global control, where the United Nations takes on the role of puppet master, manipulating events to carry out their sinister agenda. The United Nations presents itself as a symbol of peace and collaboration, but what lies beneath its admirable facade? 

We will delve into the history and purpose of the UN, exploring its origins and transformation into a powerful force with evil intentions. Brace yourself as the manipulation tactics the UN employs, from secret agreements to strategic alliances, are exposed. They have become masters at pulling strings and subtly guiding governments toward their desired goals.

The Historical Roots

In the early 19th century, a series of relentless wars and conflicts had a profound impact on the global economy. In the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars, prominent European nations made a concerted effort to establish a prolonged period of peace. This initiative culminated in the creation of the Concert of Europe in 1815, an unprecedented international organization dedicated to preventing member states from engaging in armed conflict. Despite its noble intentions, the Concert of Europe ultimately failed to maintain peace, succumbing to the pressures that led to the outbreak of World War I in 1914.

However, a previous example has been established. Following the war's conclusion in 1918, the authorities decided to once again pursue a period of tranquility with the League of Nations in 1920. What set this attempt apart was that the League of Nations encompassed multiple objectives beyond averting war. Many of these objectives were centered around human rights, including matters such as working conditions. Unfortunately, the League of Nations did not endure as long as its forerunner. It disintegrated when the Second World War commenced in 1939, less than two decades later.

However, the third attempt was more successful. By the conclusion of World War II in 1945, the UN had been established with great efficiency, although its official foundation came a month later. Like its precursors, the UN emerged from the initiative of the ruling nations, of which there were 50 at the time. Nowadays, the UN encompasses practically every country worldwide, comprising 193 nations.

Similar to the League of Nations, the main objective of the United Nations was to maintain peace. Nevertheless, its initial Charter encompassed an extensive range of additional aims to keep member nations engaged. These objectives comprised not only humanitarian endeavors but also the promotion of global collaboration on various other worldwide concerns.

The crux of the matter is that if you purport to have concerns that affect the entire world, then it follows that you must also advocate for solutions that can address these issues on a global scale. However, the only way to achieve such universal solutions is by establishing a unified global authority, which is what the United Nations represents. This logical progression implies that a single global currency and military, among other things, would also be necessary.

In 1948, the United Nations formed its military branch shortly after its establishment. The UN's first peacekeeping mission took place in 1956. Following the end of the Cold War in 1988, the UN's military role evolved to encompass not only controlling tensions within countries but also regulating the population. Notably, the UN recently announced plans to extend its peacekeeping efforts to social media by creating a so-called digital army, which will combat misinformation and disinformation.

At this point, it should be clear that this refers to content those in authority disapprove of. The announcement explicitly mentions that the United Nations' online force will also address any data that hinders the advancement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

For those unfamiliar, the SDGs encompass 17 objectives that every member nation is required to achieve by 2030. It is the reason why countries are hurrying to introduce digital IDs, Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and smart cities. The SDGs dictate the adoption of these dystopian technologies by 2030, only seven years away. With time running out, the UN and its associated organizations are striving to expedite their implementation.

The question arises as to who has control over the United Nations. In order to provide an answer, it is necessary to comprehend the functioning of the UN. As the UN is commonly known as an international organization, its different divisions are often called organs. The UN is composed of six organs, namely the General Assembly, the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, the Secretariat, the International Court of Justice, and the Trusteeship Council.

The Roles Of The Six Organs 

There’s not much worth noting about the International Court of Justice except that it’s the sole United Nations entity not headquartered in New York City. Regarding the Trusteeship Council, its purpose was to facilitate the attainment of sovereignty for nations, but it ceased operations in 1994. 

In any case, the United Nations General Assembly comprises 193 member nations. Representatives from these countries convene annually in September to engage in deliberations and voting on resolutions. Resolutions of great importance necessitate a 2/3 majority approval, while less significant resolutions require a simple majority (over 50%). 

Moving on to the Security Council, it consists of 15 countries, with five permanent members and ten rotating members who change every two years. The permanent members are France, Russia, China, the United States, and the United Kingdom, which were the victorious nations of the Second World War.

The United Nations Security Council's five permanent members hold the authority to veto significant resolutions, a contentious issue because it enables these countries to dismiss any UN decisions that negatively impact them. Although Russia's use of veto power has garnered significant attention, it was the United States that insisted on veto power in exchange for its membership in the UN. It is believed that the veto will remain an integral part of the Security Council, as removing it would require the United States and its allies to relinquish their own veto power.

It is essential to be aware that the United States attempted to obtain a resolution from the United Nations to justify its invasion of Iraq following the 9/11 attacks. Despite the rejection of this resolution by the United Nations, the US proceeded with the invasion anyway, contributing to a complex and controversial struggle for dominance on the global stage, with no party emerging untainted from the conflict.

The United Nations' administrative organ, the Secretariat, plays a crucial role in the creation, passage, and enforcement of UN resolutions. The leader of the Secretariat, known as the Secretary-General, is selected by the Security Council and elected by the General Assembly for a five-year term. Interestingly, while there's no limit on the number of terms a Secretary-General can serve, none have stayed in office for more than two terms – yet.

However, the past records of selecting Secretariat officials expose the individuals in control. It appears that the UN underwent a significant transformation in the early 1990s. It is important to note that the approval of resolutions necessitates a 2/3 majority vote or a simple majority vote. It should be clarified that every member nation holds an equal vote in this procedure, regardless of their contribution level to the UN.

The implications of this go beyond what you might initially think. The country with the most sway over other nations can effectively control the United Nations, which has major consequences. In the 1990s, it seemed like the developing world was gaining momentum, and the US and its allies were not pleased with this shift in power dynamics.

During the early 1990s, the United Nations Secretary-General was Boutros Boutros-Ghali, a representative from Egypt. However, the United States strongly opposed his leadership and went so far as to offer him a nonprofit foundation in exchange for his resignation. Despite the offer, Boutros-Ghali refused to resign and was subsequently denied a second term (vetoed by the US) even though most member countries had supported his return. Since then, the United States has exerted significant influence over the selection of subsequent Secretary-Generals, ensuring that they have been aligned with American interests.

Kofi Annan, a Ghanaian diplomat, succeeded Boutros-Ghali. He also introduced the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) before the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were established. Notably, he drafted the original letter that spawned the concept of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing in 2004. Interestingly, the SDGs heavily influenced the criteria for ESG. Moreover, Antonio Guterres, the current Secretary-General from Portugal, actively promotes the SDGs. He has played a crucial role in advocating for digital IDs, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and smart cities.

Unelected and unaccountable international organizations advocating for the interests of both private and public sectors, including large corporations and governments, are driving the development of these dystopian technologies. For example, the World Economic Forum (WEF) collaborated with the UN to expedite the adoption of its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) using Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) measures in 2019. Additionally, entities such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, operating under the UN umbrella, represent the public sector's involvement in these efforts.

In organizations such as the WEF, there are influential financial institutions like Bank of America and investment managers like BlackRock who oversee the allocation of funds, making sure that individuals and institutions adhering to ESG principles receive the necessary financing to support the achievement of the SDGs. Additionally, technology companies like Microsoft play a crucial role in developing critical technologies for this purpose.

The World Economic Forum aims to shape the public sector through initiatives like the Young Global Leaders, which identifies and develops future leaders of nations, and Global Shapers, which focuses on cultivating local leaders, including mayors. Additionally, institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank offer loan programs to developing countries with favorable terms, provided they align with the Sustainable Development Goals and US interests.

Organizations such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) have also had a significant impact in this area. Likewise, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) aims to influence the private sector by implementing regulations that lead to centralized systems in developed nations and corrupt leadership in developing nations. This enables developed countries to maintain control over their own populations and also manipulate developing countries. Consequently, very few developing nations have been able to transition into developed nations in the past fifty years.

The current state of affairs has left much to be desired for most of the United Nations member states. Over the past few decades, numerous leaders have taken to the podium at the UN's General Assembly to express their opinions. One of the most notable figures to do so was former Libyan Prime Minister Muammar Gaddafi, who delivered a lengthy and impassioned speech that lasted over 90 minutes in 2008 and even included a dramatic moment where he tore a page from a copy of the UN Charter.


Screenshot: Muammar Gaddafi's speech at the United Nations General Assembly

Since 2011, Libya and North Africa have been in turmoil following the assassination of Gaddafi, allegedly orchestrated by US interests. Hillary Clinton's infamous quote, "We came, we saw, he died," references this event. Considering Gaddafi's demise, it is unsurprising that UN countries have been cautious about challenging the United States. However, this has not prevented other leaders from expressing their views, although they have become more careful in doing so. 

Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin are particularly notable examples. In recent years, they have refrained from personally attending the UN's annual assemblies, choosing instead to send their top diplomats. The last time they physically addressed the UN's General Assembly was as far back as 2015. Strangely, their speeches appear absent from the UN's YouTube channel, as if they have been deleted.

Covert Operations of the United Nations

NGOs and education systems often work closely with the UN, assisting in various initiatives. These organizations, while seemingly well-intentioned, have a significant presence in society, including our education systems, where they aim to convey their message. It's as if they are gradually influencing how we learn, one classroom at a time. They cover topics like identity politics and climate change, potentially shaping the minds of young learners.

If you look closer at the materials they produce, you might find that they emphasize what to think rather than how to think critically. This raises questions about independent thought when a collective "woke" mindset is seemingly imposed.

The UN has become a master of manipulation, employing a wide array of tactics to advance its agenda discreetly. Behind their polished image, they offer promises of global harmony while quietly working to shape the world to their liking. But how exactly do they pull off this elaborate act? Well, they've honed the craft of charm, coercion, and cleverly concealed power plays. These manipulation tactics are carefully designed to ensure their agenda remains unchallenged.

One of their most favored tactics involves using funding as a strategic weapon. Governments that align with the UN's objectives receive financial aid and international support as a reward. Conversely, those who dare to question the UN's motives may be cut off from vital resources and isolated diplomatically. Their influence extends far and wide, infiltrating and subverting national sovereignty through a web of alliances, treaties, and agreements.

Countries are entangled in a complex web of obligations and dependencies, often unable to make decisions without considering the UN's interests. It's like a colossal chessboard, with the UN skillfully moving the pieces while governments scramble to stay in their good graces. They strategically cozy up to key players and cultivate a network of loyal followers, all while maintaining a facade of impartiality and neutrality.
As for the governments under the UN's influence, the list is extensive, encompassing both developed and developing nations. From superpowers like the United States to smaller countries striving for independence, no one is immune to the UN's puppeteering. How does this connect to the UN's broader agenda? Well, fasten your seatbelt because it's quite a journey. Their ultimate goal is nothing less than global domination, albeit subtly and inconspicuously.

Population control stands out as one of their key strategies. Under the guise of family planning and reproductive health, they promote policies that restrict individual freedom and interfere with personal choices. This is a clever means to manipulate demographics and ensure their vision of a controlled world becomes a reality. But their agenda doesn't stop there. 

Economic manipulation is another tool in their arsenal. By concentrating power and widening the wealth gap, they create a world where a select few hold all the cards, perpetuating the cycle of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer.

Climate change has also become a convenient crisis for the UN's objectives. They exploit the fear and concern surrounding environmental issues to push for global regulations and policies. While protecting the planet is undeniably important, it's hard to ignore that the UN leverages it as a tool to advance its agenda of centralized control. And let's not forget about global governance. By eroding national sovereignty and promoting the idea of a new world order, they aim to establish a system where the UN reigns supreme.

But what about freedom of speech and independent media? Well, they might as well be a thing of the past. The UN's influence on media and its inclination for censorship and control directly threaten the fundamental principles of democracy. They dictate what information is disseminated, effectively molding public opinion to align with their agenda. It's as if George Orwell's "1984" has never felt more relevant.

Now, who are the puppeteers behind this grand operation? At the forefront is the Secretary-General, the face of authority but perhaps just another puppet dancing to the UN's tune. Then there's the General Assembly, which should serve as a voice for all but often acts as a rubber stamp for the UN's decisions. And let's not overlook the Security Council, supposedly a protector of nations but frequently serving the UN's interests instead. Behind closed doors, the real power lies within the Secretariat, an intricate web of bureaucrats and administrators who make the strings dance to the UN's tune.

Furthermore, the UN employs the tactics of infiltration and indoctrination as part of its core strategies. They infiltrate non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and educational systems, subtly spreading their ideology and molding minds to align with their vision. It's like a slow and steady form of brainwashing, with the UN orchestrating the process. Then there's Agenda 2030 and beyond. It may sound harmless, a plan for global development and sustainability, but upon closer examination, it reveals itself as a blueprint for control and manipulation.

Manufacturing crises are another tactic in the UN's extensive toolbox. From conflicts to humanitarian disasters, they exploit these situations to push their agenda and gain more control. It's akin to a dark and twisted chess game where innocent lives are treated as mere pawns. And we must not underestimate the UN's ability to employ treaties and conventions as instruments of global influence. They effectively legalize control, disguising it as international law. By manipulating these agreements, they can override national sovereignty and dictate the terms of international relations.

Conclusion

The United Nations is often portrayed as the world's saviors, but behind the scenes, they are the puppet masters, orchestrating the actions of institutions and governments to further their agendas, sometimes controversial objectives.

In this exploration, I've uncovered a world where appearances can be deceiving. It's a world where institutions and governments may find themselves unwittingly influenced by the UN's behind-the-scenes maneuvers. Our journey has taken us through the UN's history, its manipulation strategies, and the influential individuals who play a role in its intricate web of global influence.

The key takeaway here is that knowledge is power. By understanding the UN's tactics and strategies, we can liberate ourselves from potential manipulation and contribute to a world characterized by genuine freedom and sovereignty. It's time to shed light on the puppeteers and reclaim control over our destinies. If you once considered this article a mere conspiracy theory, it might be time to reassess. Reality often surpasses the strangest fiction. So, it's vital to stay vigilant, question the status quo, and remember that the United Nations' actions are constantly under scrutiny.

UK to implement first set of crypto regulations in 2024 Spain to implement MiCA in 2025

UK to implement first set of crypto regulations in 2024, Spain to implement MiCA in 2025

The government of the U.K. has completed its review of comments received from the public regarding its proposed regulatory regime for crypto assets and has decided to move forward with implementing the first set of rules to regulate the crypto sector, including a requirement that all market participants be authorized before they can offer services to customers.

HM Treasury released the government’s responses to the comments received from the public on Monday, saying, “The government’s ambition to make the UK a global hub for cryptoasset technologies remains steadfast.”

“To realize this ambition, we must make the UK a place where cryptoasset firms have the clarity needed to invest and innovate, and where customers have the protections necessary for confidently using these technologies,” said Andrew Griffith, economic secretary to the Treasury.

“The learnings gathered from our engagement have been invaluable for further informing our approach,” he added. “While most aspects of our proposals were well received by the large majority of respondents, we have modified certain features of our future framework to take onboard the evidence presented.”

The Treasury said it would move ahead as proposed in a February public consultation, requiring firms undertaking cryptoasset activities to be authorized by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), although it gave no start date.

“By and large, the government intends to implement the territorial scope of the future regulatory regime as proposed in the Consultation,” they said. “This means a person (whether legal or natural) will generally be required to be authorized by the FCA under Part 4A of FSMA if they are undertaking one of the regulated activities or are providing a service in or to the UK.”

The rules that the Treasury intends to enforce focus on crypto assets like Bitcoin (BTC), the underlying blockchain technology that underpins the sector, and providers that are looking to offer crypto asset services to the U.K. public.

Regulated activities include offering a cryptoasset, operating a trading platform, swapping cryptoassets for currencies such as sterling, arranging investments and lending in cryptoassets, and safekeeping or custody.

“The government’s position is that firms dealing directly with UK retail consumers should be required to be authorized irrespective of where they are located,” they said.

The ministry said the new rules will be brought under established market law rather than exist as a standalone regime.

"It’s unlikely that crypto regulation will be easily shoe-horned into the existing regulatory framework," said Jonathan Cavill, a lawyer at Pinsent Masons. "The reality is that as the market develops at pace, the UK runs the risk of being left behind if it fails to attract crypto businesses."

The ministry said it plans to accelerate the implementation of these rules to provide the sector with greater clarity and will present secondary legislation to parliament in 2024. They also released a separate document outlining their approach to regulating stablecoins and will propose legislation in 2024 to give the FCA powers to oversee them.

The decision to move forward with establishing regulations around digital assets comes on the heels of the June passage of the Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) legislation in the European Union, which is the world’s first set of comprehensive rules specifically for cryptoasset markets.

Spain to implement MiCA ahead of schedule

The Spanish Ministry of Economy and Digital Transformation has announced that it will begin implementing MiCA at the national level in December 2025, six months before the July 2026 general deadline for implementing the crypto framework for all 27 member states of the E.U.

The Ministry made the announcement via a press release on Thursday, and the first vice president of Spain, Nadia Calviño, has since met with the president of the European Securities and Market Authority, Verena Ross, to discuss the government’s intention to advance the implementation of MiCA.

While MiCA was approved in June, E.U. countries have been given a 36-month transition period from the time the bill was published in the Official Journal of the European Union. Spain previously stated they wanted to shorten that transition period to 18 months.

"The government will shorten the transitional period of application … with the aim of creating a predictable and stable regulatory and supervisory framework," the release from the Ministry said. “[This] will provide legal certainty and greater protection for Spanish investors in this type of assets.”

But they are not waiting until 2025 to start their preparations, as multiple large international crypto exchanges in Spain have been granted local licenses. In June, Crypto.com announced that they had been granted a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration from the Banco de España that allows the exchange to operate in the country.

In September, Coinbase secured an anti-money laundering compliance registration from Spain’s central bank, and Kraken attained a VASP registration similar to Crypto.com.

Earlier this month, Banco de España issued a note to Spanish citizens preparing them for the potential introduction of a digital euro and explaining the basics of how the European Union’s central bank digital currency (CBDC) would operate.

“These preparations are multiple and complex in nature, not only for the Eurosystem but also for legislators,” they said. “The objective is clear: to be able to complement the range of payment solutions available to citizens, including cash. The digital euro would be an additional option that would ensure access to public money with all its guarantees, also in an increasingly digital environment.”

“The infrastructure that allows us to make electronic payments (machines, connections, protocols …) is a key part of our financial system and the Eurosystem ensures its soundness and availability,” the central bank said. “The digital euro would be based on a public and European infrastructure that would strengthen the European financial system and make it more independent of foreign alternatives.”

China’s gold output consumption rise in 2023 gold ETFs add 953 tonnes in Q3

China's gold output, consumption rise in 2023, gold ETFs add 9.53 tonnes in Q3

China’s gold production and consumption both increased over the first nine months of 2023, while the country’s gold ETFs also saw significant inflows in the third quarter, according to a report from Xinhua.

“China produced 271.248 tonnes of gold in the first nine months of 2023, up 1.261 tonnes or 0.47 percent compared with the same period last year,” the report said, citing data released by the China Gold Association (CGA). “In the January-September period, gold consumption in China totaled 835.07 tonnes, up 7.32 percent year on year.”

The CGA data also revealed a rise in the consumption of gold jewelry and gold bars and coins in the Chinese market. “Consumption of gold jewelry in the Chinese market rose 5.72 percent year on year to 552.04 tonnes, while that of gold bars and coins surged 15.98 percent from the same period in 2022 to 222.37 tonnes,” they said.

However, not all sectors saw an increase in gold consumption. “During the period, consumption of gold for industrial and other use fell 5.53 percent from a year earlier to 60.66 tonnes,” the report said.

The third quarter also witnessed significant inflows to the holdings of Chinese gold-backed exchange-traded funds. “In the third quarter alone, holdings of gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in China added 9.53 tonnes,” the CGA said.

This addition brought the total holdings of gold ETFs in the Chinese market to about 59.69 tonnes by the end of September.

According to a recent report from Vladimir Zernov, Market Analyst at FX Empire, China is selling off massive quantities of its U.S. assets, and has little choice but to reallocate the funds to gold.

Zernov said he believes gold is one of the few viable alternatives to U.S. Treasuries. “In this scenario, China could increase its gold purchases in the upcoming months,” he wrote.

According to recent data from the U.S. Treasury, Chinese investors sold $21.2 billion worth of U.S. assets in the month of August. “While Fed policy outlook was the biggest driver behind the sell-off in Treasuries, it looks that China’s activity contributed to the move that pushed the yield of 30-year Treasuries towards 5.00%,” he wrote.

Zernov said he believes that, contrary to the prevailing market view, high Treasury yields may actually serve as an additional bullish catalyst for gold. “Traders are searching for safe-haven assets due to geopolitical tensions,” he wrote. “Treasuries are considered to be among the safest assets in the world, but their price is falling for months, and some investors may choose to buy gold.”

Chinese investors may be among the first ones to redeploy their funds to gold markets, he said.

Recent gold purchase data supports the theory that China is moving heavily into gold as they move to liquidate U.S. debt, with the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) buying gold at a torrid pace.

According to updated foreign reserve data, China’s central bank bought 29 tonnes of gold in August, lifting year-to-date purchases to 155 tonnes. It was also the central bank's biggest purchase since December.

And it’s not just the Chinese state that’s shown a voracious appetite for the yellow metal. Recent months have seen China’s domestic gold prices spike well above international spot prices as the country’s wealthy and middle class have clamored to secure the value of their own savings.

The population’s desire for gold was so great that the PBoC intervened in the market by banning banks from importing gold, which pushed the spread between the spot price of gold in Shanghai and in London to a record $121 per ounce in mid-September.

This is why the fiat system ‘ruins everything’ and ‘must be destroyed’ – Jimmy Song

This is why the fiat system 'ruins everything' and 'must be destroyed' – Jimmy Song

The fiat system is responsible for not only bad financial practices and mountains of debt but also distorted incentives on personal and professional levels, according to Jimmy Song, Bitcoin Developer, Author, Educator and Entrepreneur.

In his new book, 'Fiat Ruins Everything: How Our Financial System Is Rigged and How Bitcoin Fixes It,' Song dives into the fiat system and its pitfalls.

Song makes the case that the debasement of our money is the root of many of our problems and that the system of central banking has, in a way, “enslaved” us.

Song writes, “Like a zombie master, central banks have turned every organization into its slave, and much of civilization now lives a zombie-like existence. This is the debasement you’ve been feeling your whole life, the reason why everything seems to be slowly deteriorating.”

Song maintains that fiat has ruined everything from the economy to policies to relationships to family to art.

"Fiat money and the system of central banking is allowed to put new money into existence," Song told Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News, on the sidelines of the Pacific Bitcoin Festival. "And the existence of somebody that can do that changes the incentives all over the place. In our personal lives, we don't have savings vehicles anymore, so that changes our behavior."

Song broke down his argument, starting with governments being in charge of printing money to prolong their stay in power.

"Governments can print money to buy votes to essentially prolong their power. That leads to a lot of distorted incentives. And at the global level, the U.S. has the ability to print the world's reserve currency. And that means it is dominant in foreign affairs," he said.

Song makes a compelling argument on how the fiat system impacts and distorts our daily lives. Watch the video above for details.

Money debasement

Inflation and currency debasement create a population that is focused on consumerism versus sound money spending, Song pointed out.

"The debasement of money causes you to want to spend it rather than save it because saving it is a lot of work. In order to keep the value that you have, you have to put a lot of time and energy into investments, savings vehicles, and maintaining those investments," he explained. "That's a lot of time, effort, and energy taken away from pursuing something more fruitful, like providing value to other people through the market process of providing goods and services."

This is how society ends up preferring short-term consumption versus long-term goals. The consequences of this could be dire, especially when it comes to civilizational progress. Watch the video above to get the full take.

Prior to the modern-day fiat currency, there was a gold standard, which served people better. However, one of its downfalls was centralization, Song added. For more details on what worked and what didn't under the gold standard, watch the video above.

Song argues for the sound money standard, noting that if Bitcoin is adopted on a large scale, it could fix the global issues the fiat system created.

"What fiat money lets you do is suspend reality. You can certainly see that with some of the zombie companies that exist today. The more money you inject, the longer they can live, even though they really should be dead," Song said. "Fiat must be destroyed to preserve civilization."

The Role of Technology and Innovation

In today's digital age, technology and innovation play a crucial role in marketing campaigns. The use of video, digital marketing, and online advertising has become increasingly popular in recent years. Companies are leveraging these tools to reach their target audience more effectively and efficiently.

One of the key benefits of technology and innovation in marketing is the ability to personalize content. With the help of data analytics, companies can gather information about their customers' preferences and behaviors. This data can then be used to create personalized content that resonates with the audience. This approach has proven to be more effective than generic content that is not tailored to specific individuals.

In addition to personalization, technology and innovation have also revolutionized the way companies communicate with their customers. Websites, newsletters, and social media platforms have become essential tools for companies to interact with their customers. These platforms allow companies to provide valuable information, updates, and promotions to their customers in real-time.

The use of technology and innovation has also enabled companies to measure the effectiveness of their marketing campaigns more accurately. With the help of analytics tools, companies can track the performance of their campaigns, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions.

In conclusion, technology and innovation have become critical components of marketing campaigns. Companies that leverage these tools effectively can create personalized content, communicate with their customers more effectively, and measure the effectiveness of their campaigns more accurately. As a result, companies can increase their ROI and achieve their marketing goals more efficiently.

Automotive Industry and Market Trends

The automotive industry is constantly evolving, and it is important for companies to stay up-to-date with industry trends to remain competitive. Marketing campaigns, like the one offered by beyondinfinity.club, are a way for companies to not only generate interest in their brand, but also to stay current with the latest automotive marketing trends.

According to a report by Deloitte, the global automotive industry is expected to experience moderate growth in the coming years. The report suggests that the industry will continue to shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous driving technology. In addition, there is expected to be an increase in demand for shared mobility services.

In terms of U.S. sales, the automotive industry is projected to return to pre-pandemic levels with growth forecast around 9%, according to Porch Group Media. The report also predicts growth in the EV and Hybrid sector, which is expected to grow 29% from 2022 to 2023.

Automotive marketing is also evolving, with a greater emphasis on digital marketing and customer engagement. As reported by Affinitiv, the push for further digitalization is redefining sales and service strategies. Dealers are increasingly incorporating digital tools, such as chatbots and virtual reality, to enhance the customer experience and improve sales.

In automotive news, Ford Motor Company's Q3 2023 U.S. Market Performance was analyzed by Cox Automotive. The impact of the UAW strike against the Detroit automakers was the focus of Ford's third-quarter financial results. However, Wall Street analysts were looking ahead, beyond the strike, to assess Ford's future growth prospects.

Overall, it is clear that the automotive industry is undergoing significant changes. Companies that are able to adapt to these changes and stay current with industry trends are more likely to succeed in the long run.

Search Engine Marketing Strategies

Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is a crucial part of any marketing campaign. It is a highly effective way to drive traffic to your website and increase brand awareness. SEM involves placing ads on search engine results pages (SERPs) to target users who are actively searching for products or services related to your business.

One of the most important aspects of SEM is keyword research. This involves identifying the keywords and phrases that your target audience is searching for and then incorporating them into your ad copy. Google Ads offers a Keyword Planner tool that can help you find relevant keywords and estimate their search volume.

Negative keywords are also an important part of SEM. These are keywords that you don't want your ads to show up for. For example, if you're selling new cars, you might want to exclude keywords like "used cars" or "car rentals" to ensure that your ads are only shown to users who are interested in buying a new car.

Another important tool for SEM is the search query report. This report shows you the actual search terms that users are typing in when they see and click on your ads. By analyzing this data, you can identify new keywords to target and negative keywords to exclude.

Competitor keywords are also an important consideration in SEM. By researching your competitors' ads and website content, you can identify the keywords and phrases that they are targeting and incorporate them into your own ad copy.

Finally, ad copy is a crucial element of SEM. Your ad copy should be clear, concise, and compelling. It should include your target keywords and a strong call-to-action to encourage users to click through to your website.

Overall, a well-executed SEM strategy can be a powerful way to drive traffic to your website and increase brand awareness. By focusing on keyword research, negative keywords, search query reports, competitor keywords, and ad copy, you can create effective ads that target users who are actively searching for products or services related to your business.

Generating Leads and ROI

BeyondInfinity.club has come up with an exciting marketing campaign where contributors have the chance to receive a brand new car. However, to make this campaign a success, generating leads and ROI is crucial.

The first step in generating leads is to identify the target audience. BeyondInfinity.club needs to identify the people who are most likely to contribute to the campaign and purchase their products. Once the target audience is identified, the next step is to create a compelling message that resonates with them. The message should highlight the benefits of contributing to the campaign and how it can positively impact their lives.

To generate leads, BeyondInfinity.club can use various channels such as social media, email marketing, and phone calls. Social media is an excellent platform to reach a large audience quickly. The company can create engaging posts, run ads, and use influencers to promote the campaign. Email marketing is another effective way to generate leads. The company can send personalized emails to potential contributors, highlighting the benefits of the campaign. Phone calls are also an effective way to generate leads. The company can call potential contributors and provide them with more information about the campaign.

Once leads are generated, the next step is to convert them into customers. BeyondInfinity.club needs to have a well-designed sales funnel that guides the leads towards making a purchase. The sales funnel should be optimized to maximize conversions and minimize drop-offs.

ROI is a crucial metric that determines the success of the campaign. To calculate ROI, BeyondInfinity.club needs to subtract the cost of the campaign from the revenue generated. The revenue generated should include not only the contributions but also the sales of their products. By tracking ROI, the company can identify which marketing channels are generating the most revenue and optimize their marketing efforts accordingly.

In conclusion, generating leads and ROI is crucial for the success of BeyondInfinity.club's marketing campaign.

Gold continues to shine as rising debt could cause bond yields to become unanchored – Sprott’s McIntyre

Gold continues to shine as rising debt could cause bond yields to become unanchored – Sprott's McIntyre

There is no question that geopolitical uncertainty caused by chaos in the Middle East was the spark that ignited safe-have demand for gold and drove prices up from their seven-month lows; however, there is another factor at play in the marketplace that is helping to support prices at $2,000 an ounce, according to one portfolio manager.

In an interview with Kitco News, Ryan McIntyre, managing partner at Sprott Inc., said that the potential for a credit risk event is also providing solid safe-haven demand for gold and could help propel prices well above $2,000 an ounce.

McIntyre's bullish outlook on gold comes as the precious metal has held its ground, holding initial support this week above $1,950 an ounce even as bond yields remain in striking distance to 5%, their highest level in 16 years.

McIntyre said that one of the reasons why gold's negative correlation to bond yields is breaking down is because more and more investors are becoming worried about the U.S. government's fiscal outlook and the growing debt, which has surpassed $33 trillion.

However, McIntyre added that this is more than just the size of U.S. government debt.

"The most frightening thing for me is the deficit. I am more focused on the trajectory of where things are going," he said. "The rising deficit means the U.S. is not getting its finances in check."

McIntyre also noted that elevated gold prices reflect the growing risk that the U.S. economy faces a potential debt spiral as higher interest rates reflect higher borrowing costs, which precipitates the need for more capital.

He said that he thinks the U.S. is experiencing a slower version of what happened last October when the U.K. bond market was roiled after then-Prime Minster Elizabeth Truss proposed substantial tax cuts to be paid for with higher deficits. The turmoil in British financial markets cost Trust her job as Prime Minister.

One reason why markets are now focusing on the U.S.' growing debt is because of the sharp rise in interest rates. With the Fed Funds rates between 5.25% and 5.50%, the U.S. government is now spending more money servicing its $33 trillion debt than it spends on national defense.

At the same time, McIntyre also noted that along with the Fed's aggressive rate hikes, it has reduced its balance sheet, significantly reducing M2 money supply, the amount of money held by the public.

  Traders wait to see if gold can break $2,000 after the Fed holds rates steady

"Because the supply of money is decreasing, asset values are inherently decreasing. You now need more assets to support your credit requirements at higher levels. This is the last thing you absolutely want because it can quickly spiral out of control," he said. "I think this is why investors are turning to gold because they see a stable asset. There is only one safe-haven asset out there if you don't just want U.S. government bonds: that is gold."

While the Federal Reserve remains primarily focused on inflation, McIntyre said they need to be aware of the potential risk that bond yields could become unanchored to monetary policy.

While it may be a little early, the scenario that McIntyre is looking for is where the Federal Reserve maintains its hawkish stance but starts buying bonds, to keep yields in line. He added that the same time, increasing M2 money supply would also help ease market tensions.

However, McIntyre added that the Fed is in a difficult position. Because of rising deficits, the Fed can be seen increasing its balance sheet too much.

"Maybe in the short term, it will have the desired effect. But I think it will make people more nervous. And that's the problem when you lose control," he said. "With all this uncertainty, I think gold will continue to do well and remain in an uptrend until the government can get its spending under control, which isn't likely to happen anytime soon."
