💰 How Much Gold Is Left to Mine?
To visualize: • 🟨 All the gold ever mined would fit inside a cube just 22.3 meters wide — smaller than the Great Pyramid of Giza. • 🟨 Remaining reserves would form a cube of 15.2 meters per side. • ⛏️ Two-thirds of all gold in human history has been extracted since 1950, a period of accelerated mining and financialization. 📊 Source: World Gold Council, Britannica, Live Science Source: INVEST

JP Morgan: “After taking 12 years to double from $1,000 to $2,000 (2008–2020), gold doubled again in just 5 years, crossing $4,000 this month.
The move from $3,000 to $4,000 took ~200 days — and from $3,300 to $4,300 only ~60.” Source: The Market Ear, JPM

Goldman's gold forecast

Goldman on gold's Tuesday flush:
"The best answer we have for the largest % move in 10 years is (simply) positioning, and that we’ve rallied for 9 consecutive weeks. The ease of trading an ETF for quick exposure has been on full display; as of [Tuesday's] close $GLD accounted for 8% of all notional US-listed ETF volumes, its largest share of activity in our dataset. Flows on the ETF desks skewed (unsurprisingly) strongly better for sale today". Source: Neil Sethi
🟢 BTC +3% 🔴 GOLD −6%
Some rotation from gold into bitcoin? Source: Trend Spider
Gold is giving us a lesson in statistics. Yesterday's −5.7% move is a rare 4.46-sigma move.
In a “normal” world, that’s once every 240,000 trading days. In reality −4.67% to −6.00% occurred 34 times since 1971, i.e. in 13,088 trading days (0.26% = 1 in 385 days). Even bigger drawdowns happened 21 times since 1971. Message: Gold is NOT low-vol. FOMO caused the latest leg up. Now, profit taking and weak hands got shaken out. Means? Statistically speaking, chances are that calmer days are ahead. Source: Alexander Stahel 🌻@BurggrabenH on X
