The Central Bank of the UAE has significantly expanded its gold holdings.
The UAE’s gold reserves rose 25.9% in the first five months of 2025...
@LukeGromen and I spent quite a bit of time discussing the accumulation of #gold by countries in the latest GT conversation.
When you asked,
Doubt the Jack-in-the-box and Suspicion
Tied my shoelaces together,
Browsed the #past, begged AI to crystal gaze,
And
When you were at the door,
I must have asked what you asked,
Do you love me
or
Was it rhetorical
or
A statement,
say,
Get lost?

The European Central Bank's president is warning that undermining a central bank's independence would trigger economic dysfunction.
Do you know what else has already triggered economic dysfunction?
Endless QE.
Ever wondered why finance wizards are obsessed about sovereign bond market?
Why do they sound alarm on yields?
What are sovereign bonds basically?
What does it mean when yield of certain maturity change?
What is Quantitative Easing (QE) and its effects?
Thread.
Global Bond Market:
1. Investors sell because of zero REAL yield
2. Central Banks print and buy
3. Investors rush to risky assets trying to generate yield
4. Market booms
5. Negative yields exceed 18 trillion
6. Gold sits there with zero yield
Next:
7. Investors run to gold
Three key developments this past month, many have missed:
1. The European Union is preparing to build strategic stockpiles of critical minerals.
2. The U.S. Department of Defence confirmed it will continue investing in critical mineral projects.
3. China is quietly increasing its nickel reserves.
The global resource race is accelerating.
Many investors remain asleep.
The President just said it:
“You make a hell of a lot more with a weaker dollar.”
That’s fiat currency in a nutshell… devalue to survive.
But over time, currencies don’t float…
They sink to zero against gold.
The only true, sound money. @judyshel
Real power isn’t printed.
It is mined, harvested, and refined.
Financial dominance can be forced. But resource independence must be earned.
True sovereignty means being self-sufficient in energy, food, and critical elements in today's multipolar world.
That’s the new global currency of power.
