From the Desk of Shanon Davis, CEO — American Alternative Assets
You know, I was sipping my morning coffee this morning and reading the headlines when something jumped out at me that I had to share with you.
Gold just hit $4,700 per ounce. That’s up over $1,358 from this time last year. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is meeting tomorrow with inflation running at 2.7% — well above their target — and they’re basically stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Here’s what I saw walking through my neighborhood yesterday: a “For Sale” sign on every third house, people shopping with calculators at the grocery store, and my neighbor telling me his savings account is earning half a percent while everything costs more every month. That’s the real America that the Fed doesn’t see from their ivory towers.
The disconnect is incredible. The S&P 500 is up nearly 30% year-over-year, and the financial media is celebrating. But you know what? Those gains are in dollars that are worth less every single day. When gold outperforms the stock market by this much, it’s not because gold is getting more valuable — it’s because the dollar is getting weaker.
Regular Americans are watching their purchasing power disappear while the Fed plays politics with their financial future. They can’t raise rates without crashing the markets. They can’t keep them low without letting inflation destroy your savings. Either way, you lose.
This isn’t happening by accident. It’s the result of decades of monetary policy that benefits Wall Street while Main Street gets hammered. The smart money — the institutions, the billionaires, the people who actually understand how this game works — they’re fleeing to gold and other hard assets.
Tomorrow’s Fed meeting will probably bring more of the same empty promises. They’ll talk about “measured approaches” and “data-dependent decisions” while your grocery bill keeps climbing and your bank account loses value.
But here’s the thing — you don’t have to be a victim of this system. It’s not that hard to understand what’s happening if you know where to look. The dollar reset isn’t coming someday. It’s happening right now, in real time, while most people are distracted by political theater and stock market headlines.
I’ve been in this business long enough to see the patterns. This looks exactly like the 1970s, except this time the numbers are bigger and the stakes are higher. Back then, the people who saw it coming and protected themselves with hard assets were the ones who preserved their wealth. Everyone else got crushed by inflation.
The good news? You still have time to position yourself properly. But that window is closing fast. Every day the Fed delays real action is another day your dollars lose purchasing power.
