This happened very quickly. Gold prices have already climbed back above $5,000. Those who shorted gold last week will soon suffer heavy losses. Meanwhile, Bitcoin prices have fallen below $76,000, now equivalent to just 15 ounces of gold, a 59% drop from its November 2021 high. Bitcoin is in the midst of a long-term bear market denominated in gold.

One gold mining company we featured in our advanced investment research has a combined production cost of less than $1,200 per ounce. Even if gold prices fall to $3,000, this company's price-to-earnings ratio will be in the single digits. And they also pay generous dividends. Feel free to check out our investment research report.

According to @Saylor, Bitcoin is the best-performing asset globally. However, MSTR has invested over $54 billion in Bitcoin over the past five years, but has lost approximately 3% on this investment so far. I'm convinced the losses will be even greater over the next five years!

The pullback in gold prices doesn't change the fact that foreign countries are selling off dollars—and Congress is powerless to stop it. The only difference is that some top mining companies' shares are temporarily cheaper. Don't forget to get a free preview of our premium investment research reports.

CNBC anchors tried to understand why Bitcoin hadn't risen like gold. Their confusion stemmed from a lack of understanding of the differences between Bitcoin and gold. This was partly due to their biased reporting, as their views were entirely derived from Bitcoin proponents.

Trump sued the U.S. government, seeking $10 billion in damages because the IRS leaked his tax returns. I sued the IRS, seeking only a fraction of Trump's amount, because the IRS illegally leaked classified information about my grand jury investigation to the media, then illegally conspired with foreign tax officials and Puerto Rican bank commissioners to obstruct justice, frame me for crimes I was proven innocent of in the grand jury investigation, and illegally deprived me of numerous constitutional rights, including property rights, causing me tens of millions of dollars in actual damages. However, the U.S. government is attempting to dismiss my lawsuit on the grounds of sovereign immunity. Given that what the IRS did to me is far more serious than what it did to Trump, and that there are verifiable losses directly related to their actions, why does sovereign immunity apply to my case but not Trump's? This is a blatant double standard.

When technology seems to have more power than government, will trust begin to crumble?

Trump mistakenly portrayed Walsh as an independent inflation hawk, claiming he would pursue a tighter monetary policy than Powell. This led the market to perceive rate cuts as economically motivated rather than politically driven when Walsh acted entirely according to Trump's wishes.

Bitcoin plunged to its lowest level since November 2024, with leveraged liquidations reaching $1.5 billion.

Bitcoin proponents claimed that a coordinated attack on gold and silver would lead to an influx of funds into Bitcoin. However, this rotation of funds did not occur; instead, Bitcoin crashed, falling below $80,000 for the first time since April 2025 following the Liberation Day sell-off.
