From Lockdowns to “The Great Reset”
The “new world order” is coming together in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. Using the World Economic Forum (WEF) as the catalyst, global policymakers are advocating for a “Great Reset” with the intent of creating a global technocracy. It is not a coincidence that on October 18, 2019, in New York City the WEF conducted the “Event 201” pandemic exercise organized by the John Hopkins Center for Health Security. What the elites are doing is constructing a technocracy involving a close relationship between the heads of the digital industry and of governments. This new governance involves programs such as guaranteed minimum income, healthcare for all, along with strict societal control with the promise of social justice.

According to the Malaysian Reserve, the current gold rush could keep going further than some speculate. Why?

The investment firm believes the world economy is moving through a “major epoch change” in macro policy towards a greater acceptance of inflationary outcomes. “The result is likely to be more deeply negative real interest rates and greater risk of broad currency debasement. In this environment, continued increases in gold allocations could have extraordinary impacts on aggregate private gold holdings. “We don’t see why gold prices should be somehow capped at current levels at all in such an environment,” Schroder stated.

Whoa! Portugal’s Gold Reserves ‘Suddenly Worth Over 20 Billion Euros’
COVID-19 has been good to Portugal’s gold reserves. The pandemic has pushed gold prices skyward. And although this country is constantly viewed as ‘less than affluent’, it has got a glittering trump card: around 383 tons of gold bullion, stacked up and seemingly going nowhere in the vaults of the Bank of Portugal. Back in 2014, when reserves again were on a high, the value of Portugal’s gold was estimated at around 13 billion euros. There is a fascinating history tied to Portugal’s gold involving the Nazi’s in WW2 and Portugal’s dictator Antonio de Oliveira… READ MORE
