Some interesting quotes by Donald Trump about rates, the dollar, macro and gold thru Ronnie Stoeferle:
- "I am a low interest rate person. If we raise interest rates and if the dollar starts getting too strong, we're going to have some very major problems." - "This is the United States government. First of all, you never have to default because you print the money." - "The Dollar is too strong. Our companies can’t compete with them now because our currency is too strong. And it’s killing us." - "The golden rule of negotiation: He who has the gold makes the rules." - "We used to have a very, very solid country because it was based on a gold standard. We don’t have the gold. Other places have the gold." - "I have been complaining about currency devaluations for a long time. I believe that we will all eventually, and probably sooner than people understand or think, be on a level playing field because that’s the only way its fair."
Bitcoin flips Silver as it breaks above $71,000 for the first time Ever
It's a milestone that Bitcoin has seen often since the beginning of March. It was only Friday afternoon when Bitcoin broke above $70,000 for the first time ever. Among the catalysts -> uk's financial watchdog said on Monday it will now permit recognised investment exchanges to launch crypto-backed exchange-traded notes, the latest regulator to pave the way for digital asset trading products. Theses products would be only available for professional investors such as investment firms and credit institutions authorised to operate in financial markets, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said in a statement.

Capriole has developed a model to calculate the intrinsic value of bitcoin as determined by energy spent.
The current intrinsic value based on this approach is close to $81,000. Some highlights of this methodology: - Energy, raw Joules alone, can be used to estimate Bitcoin’s fair value - Increased energy input increases the fair value of a Bitcoin (and vice versa for decreases) - Bitcoin’s price is mean reverting to its Energy Value - The Energy Value model states that if all miners were to stop mining Bitcoin tomorrow, the power input would be zero and Bitcoin would be worthless This approach might be of interest for Pershing Square Capital Management founder and CEO Bill Ackman who turned some of his attention to Bitcoin on Saturday afternoon, cheekily suggesting a scenario in which the price for the world's largest crypto could soar far higher than anyone might imagine. "Bitcoin price rise leads to increased mining and greater energy use, driving up the cost of energy, causing inflation to rise and the dollar to decline, driving demand for Bitcoin and increased mining, driving demand for energy and the cycle continues," said Ackman in a post on X. "Bitcoin goes to infinity, energy prices skyrocket, and the economy collapses," he continued. "Maybe I should buy some Bitcoin." "The problem of course is that it also works in reverse," he later added. https://lnkd.in/eEd7D9gw Source: Capriole.com, Charles Edwards
