"On October 21 2025, gold reportedly fell ~6% in one day — its worst drop in 12+ years."

“Gold has experienced its steepest decline in 12 years … while silver fell even more sharply at 8.7%.”

“There's speculation tying the peak to events like the IMF/World Bank meetings last week, though that's unconfirmed.”

Today this is pretty much going to be like a “blog post.” But you will not be disappointed, this is not merely me ranting about some issue, just like the hundreds of somewhat serious bloggers out there on the net. Normally, I like to give some thought and preparation to my “posts” or articles, call them “articles.”

History is being made. We are seeing the full expression of human mammal brain power. I am 67 years old, my sons call me an old man, I have really gray hair, and I just [about 12 months ago] almost died of cancer. Yes, I was dying – I came close to really dying. I could barely get out of my hospital bed, I could not really walk. The priests would come by occasionally and bless me. I would smile at them, and make jokes about God. I would tell them I did not believe in God, and they would kindly nod, and say that they understood. I was on the oncology ward [it was also for “palliative care”]. Every time the nurses and their assistants came into my room they would ask me, “are you in pain?”

“Palliative care is focused on improving quality of life for people with serious illnesses and their care partners.”

I was in a Catholic hospital here in Santa Rosa. Near the end of my 3.5 week stay in the cancer ward of the hospital, I would occasionally get visits from physical therapists, who would almost drag me out of my bed and ask to me walk down the hall. They were nice ladies – I am not making fun of them – but I could clearly see that they did not understand what it's like to be close to death. You don't easily walk!

I miss everyone there in hospital, everyone who cared for me. It was a great experience – coming close to death. I had a different nurse pretty much every day, so I met more than 20 different nurses. I talked to them all, asking them questions about medical science and cancer. And I usually joked around with them. They were all great ladies. I had several male nurses as well, and they were also pretty cool.

I start this “blog post” today with my near-death experience because I want to emphasize how important it is to have time to reflect on things. I learned that I was not afraid of death, which is hard to believe, but it is true. When you are in the hospital – and dying – you have a lot of time to think. If you can actually think. I could think pretty well, but I admit that I had some dementia. My memory was failing and I could barely do any rudimentary reasoning. Well, I am exaggerating a little, but it was pretty bad. My oncologist would come by every 4-5 days or so, and we would talk for a few minutes. Great guy, he's now a friend of mine. I am tempted to make him famous and identify him but I will spare him the fame. Early on they were talking about sending me either to Stanford Medical Center or UCSF – because they would have more experience with pancreatic cancer [which they thought (mistakenly) I had before the biopsy confirmed it was lymphoma].

Now when I go out and do a little shopping here in Sonoma County I see things very differently. I see all the human mammals out there, running around. The mestizos, the ladies, are usually pretty plump and unattractive. Sometimes, when I am in an affluent area of the county, I will occasionally see [moderately] pretty hot young women, European Americans, sometimes alone and sometimes with their infants and children. It's funny to watch them, they are all mammals going about their business here. I go back to my home on the Pacific Ocean and see the huge ocean. The Earth, spinning around, and rotating the Sun. I am alive.

Reflecting on things, I came to realize that I needed to consolidate my thinking about my mission in life, why I am here on the planet Earth. I confess that I had always felt clear about what I was doing, but the near-death experience did definitely consolidate my thoughts. It sharpens and clarifies. Before I entered the hospital and I was really ill, I would sleep a lot and I remember feeling very strange after waking. It was if my sleep was entering a new dimension. I knew, quite frankly, that I was dying, but I did not understand what was going on. It was very weird.

So, finally I get to the purpose of this article. The job I have is getting kind of intense and amusing at the same time. This job is to bring “rationality” and logic and reason to the human mammals out there, all 8 billion of them. They are all running around, doing what they do, but pretty much lacking in cognition and consciousness. Most are poor in cognition and consciousness. I would like to see them raise up their levels of cognition and consciousness. It's a tough job, some might say it's a thankless job. Yes, it is pretty demoralizing and frustrating – but I am optimistic.

And that's why precious metals seem to have peaked. Yesterday, and this morning. At $4380/ounce for gold. Yesterday I had a call scheduled with my friends in New York City and London. Their job is raising capital. I am going to get some “capital” – maybe up to $50 million.

Looks to me like word is traveling fast on Wall Street and around the world, in the financial markets around the world.

My mother and father had expected me and wanted me to work on Wall Street. I always liked Wall Street, it is definitely super cool. But I had to do what I am doing, and that's to get an understanding of the world, the entire world, every corner of the Earth. To understand all the human mammals out there, all of them, the huge diversity of human mammals.

If we have peaked, then that will be utterly amazing. I tend to think we have. I do not expect there will be a Central Intelligence Agency in the future. I do not expect there will be any of the “journalism” we see out there today. They will be all gone. Bankrupt, vanished. Hilarious. We will only see the truth. Yes, the truth. Well, we will see a fight, a struggle, to get the truth. Yes, the facts, the reality. But the truth, I mean the Truth.

We are going to be building a new world, a world with a very secure foundation. Information, knowledge, reasoned analysis, logic, factual information – this is all what we want and what we know will give us a better life, a better life for everyone. We are entering Phase 3 of human history. I have defined "Phase 3 of human history" in my other articles, so I will not define it for you now. The human mammal brain is advancing, to be sure. We are being propelled into a new world, a much better world, a much much better world.

I quote myself, some words from Supreme Court Will [Likely] Agree with Me: “Requesting Judicial Review of the Tariff Imbroglio” (Part Two). Published October 11, 2025 at

“1+ expect to see gold peak; it will certainly not go above $5000, as I have predicted; the gold/silver ratio is pretty low, meaning that silver is rising in price against gold.”

'Yes, silver could reach $100 an ounce, though it is not a certainty and would likely require extreme economic conditions like a major recession, high inflation, or geopolitical instability. Analysts point to a potential path to $100 in the future, driven by high industrial demand and a possible supply deficit, but reaching this target is not expected to happen soon and may require several years and significant market catalysts.'

“As soon as I get back to work, and the entente is established between the United States and China and Russia, the price of gold will plummet, probably going back to some $300. Bitcoin will also get sold off, massively. Bitcoin will probably drop to $10,000, even less.”

“With monetary unions in the world – with the loss of sovereignty that goes with monetary unions – inflation will become almost nonexistent. Inflation will [globally] not drop to zero, but close to it. Of course, this may take a little while, like a few years, to become apparent. On the other hand, it may not take too long. Could be several months. It's going to be insane. No one will believe what's happening.”

This was supposed to be like a “blog post” – well, I lied. Let's see if precious metals have peaked. I tend to think they have. What do you think?
