There aren't too many upsides to the widespread loss in confidence currently underway. It would be far better if major institutions were trustworthy, competent, and efficiently run. But fixing these institutions requires recognition of the problems.
The people who spent all of their time marginalizing gold bugs as nutjobs and conspiracy theorists are starting to find themselves out on the fringe.

The U.S. dollar may lose its traditional safe-haven status as global markets adjust to a new geopolitical order, according to Deutsche Bank AG.
"We do not write this lightly. But the speed and scale of global shifts are so rapid that this needs to be acknowledged as a possibility," said George Saravelos, the bank's global head of FX strategy, in a note to clients. "It is hard to overestimate the scale of change taking place in global economic and geopolitical relations in a matter of days."

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
We are so close to victory now. Gold is all over mainstream financial news organizations now even as they strive not to expose the real reasons for the monetary metal's spectacular rise: the collapse of the derivatives-based gold price suppression system.
Gold price suppression is almost a respectable topic now, even if GATA is still not respectable enough to get mentioned by mainstream financial news organizations even as we pummel them every day with evidence of their dishonesty.

Even casual observers know that gold has been trading near all-time highs lately.

Since November 1, 2022, gold has rallied from $1,650 per ounce to $2,955 per ounce, an 80% gain in 28 months.

Toronto's claim as the top mining hub is under threat as exploration companies leave Canada and listings dwindle on the nation's resource-heavy stock exchange.
Canada's once-thriving mining industry is facing challenges to its decades-old model, in which explorers and developers woo investors with promises of mining breakthroughs and established producers feed on their success, swallowing them in lucrative takeovers.

Citigroup erroneously credited client account with $81 trillion in 'near miss'

Citigroup credited a client's account with $81 trillion when it meant to send only $280, an error that could hinder the bank’s attempt to persuade regulators that it has fixed long-standing operational issues.
The erroneous internal transfer, which occurred last April and has not been previously reported, was missed by both a payments employee and a second official assigned to check the transaction before it was approved to be processed at the start of business the following day.

Right now there's 109 million ounces worth of Comex March silver contracts standing for delivery. This is 90% of the registered inventory of silver in the vaults and 27% of the total amount of silver in Comex vaults.
Those are big numbers. But it's irrelevant if the entities taking delivery do not remove their silver from Comex vaults.
