Tom welcomes back Alasdair Macleod to the show. Alasdair notes that gold prices rose significantly last week, but the miners did not hedge their positions. He belives this is because mining boards have come to realize that it is the weakening US dollar, not gold, that is the cause of the price increase. As a result, they have decided to hold off on hedging their positions. However, energy costs are still a concern as they can rise unpredictably.
The reverse repos facility provided by the Federal Reserve has seen a decline in usage as money market funds have shifted to investing in Treasury bills, which offer better interest rates. Despite the rising government debt, funding frustrations have been avoided as money market funds find alternatives. However, this could put pressure on the bullion banking community if liquidity dries up and makes it difficult to fund government debt.
There is speculation that a significant amount of gold, half of the world’s total reserves, may no longer exist due to leasing and potential disappearance from the New York Fed. The Fed’s announcement of a dovish pivot has caused the US dollar index to drop, leading to a decline in the yen carry trade. Investors are seeking alternative investments like gold.
The Middle East conflict, particularly due to Houthi-Iranian aggression, could introduce further instability to the credit market. The Federal Reserve’s priorities are shifting to focus on job creation for the upcoming presidential e------n. This shift has resulted in a fall in profits for the carry trade and a decline in the US dollar’s trade weighted index.
Central banks, including the Federal Reserve, have become more focused on funding governments rather than protecting the public from inflation and devaluation. The banking system, particularly in Europe, is highly leveraged and vulnerable to rising interest rates. The return of free banking is advocated by many, where banks are responsible for their own problems.
The LBMA is experiencing a decrease in market share due to the popularity of places like Dubai, where gold is sold based solely on weight at the gold souk. The LBMA’s efforts to gain preferential treatment from the Bank of International Settlements have been unsuccessful.
Gold’s value has been denied and downplayed by the US government, as a rise in gold prices would not be geopolitically beneficial. The situation in Argentina, with its President Milei considering switching to gold, is worth watching. Escalating tensions in the Middle East and U-----e are also impacting energy prices and geopolitical dynamics.

Arab nations, particularly Saudi Arabia and the UAE, find themselves in a state of growing dissatisfaction with the perceived inadequacy of U.S. support during the Gaza war. This discontent has prompted these nations to reevaluate their relationships, seeking a new balance under the leadership of President J-------n. Simultaneously, Russian President P---n, despite facing his own set of challenges, is actively positioning himself as a formidable global leader. In a strategic move to solidify ties with the Arab world, P---n is aligning with their calls for a Gaza ceasefire and advocating for the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state.
This diplomatic maneuvering by P---n takes place against the backdrop of historical ties between Russia and Israel. However, the Russian leader is demonstrating adaptability by adjusting his stance. Furthermore, he is confronted with the economic impact of falling oil prices, a matter that requires careful navigation. OPEC Plus, which includes Russia, initially aimed for a $100-per-barrel oil price, but the current market reality hovers around $75. This deviation is attributed to China’s economic slowdown and an increasing global focus on renewable energy. While Saudi Arabia and the UAE possess the economic resilience to manage this situation, P---n finds himself in need of additional revenue for the ongoing U-----e war.
In response to these economic challenges, P---n embarked on visits to Saudi Arabia and the UAE, seeking lucrative oil and trade deals to secure financial support. However, the efficacy of these efforts remains uncertain, as the Arab nations maintain strong and longstanding ties with the United States across various sectors. Despite their discontent, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have refrained from taking concrete actions against the U.S., opting to preserve normal diplomatic relations.
The recent unveiling of a new master plan during discussions between P---n and Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince, Mohammed bin Salman, signifies a significant development in their collaboration. The agreement encompasses various domains, including but not limited to the oil and gas sector, energy, geoscience, and environmental research. Additionally, the discussions explored potential collaboration in diverse fields such as food security, technology, justice, tourism, sports, and education.
Upon returning to Moscow, P---n engaged in talks with Oman’s Crown Prince, Theyazin bin Haitham Al Said, with a focus on exploring possibilities for cooperation in energy, tourism, and investment. During these discussions, the Crown Prince expressed Oman’s interest in investing in Russia and emphasized the need to rectify the current global order, advocating for a fair system free of double standards.
The multifaceted nature of P---n’s diplomatic endeavors is further highlighted by his participation in international forums, such as the 14th International Forum on Peace and Security ‘Sir Bani Yas’ in Abu Dhabi and the 21st Doha Forum in Qatar. These events underscore the region’s keen interest in alternative viewpoints beyond the Western narrative.
P---n’s visits to the UAE and Saudi Arabia serve as tangible evidence of the growing closeness between Russia and the Arab monarchies. Traditionally staunch allies of the United States, these nations appear to be shifting their geopolitical alignment as a counterbalance to American dominance in the Middle East. This shift reflects a broader trend in a world that is increasingly becoming more multipolar, with Russia assuming a more significant role in shaping the dynamics of the Middle East.
The geopolitical landscape is further enriched by expert opinions, which illuminate the frustrations in Washington regarding the Gulf monarchies’ approach. The perceived failure of U.S. policy in the Middle East in recent years is evident, with Moscow’s active diplomacy playing a pivotal role in Syria’s reintegration into the League of Arab States and the normalization of relations with key players like Saudi Arabia and the UAE. China, too, has acted as a mediator, initiating a reconciliation process between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Despite political differences, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has improved relations with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Israel, and Egypt. The prevailing emphasis among Arab monarchies on “regionalization” highlights their commitment to synchronizing relations among regional players and engaging in dialogue to resolve conflicts.
