Gold bars weights are highly variant, and often they are not even homogenous nor fully fungible.

In other words, often enormous gold bar weights are not exact. They, therefore, cannot be traded without adequate record-keeping, weighing, and assaying.

Silver just closed over $67 per oz, and for the first time in generations, that single ounce now buys an entire barrel of oil—a price relationship that almost never happens. This rare silver-oil ratio flip is quietly signaling a major shift that Wall Street prefers to downplay, even as silver continues to outperform oil and much of the stock market.

In the new market update video, we walk through the data, the long-term historical context, and why this moment is far more important than most headlines suggest. Watch the new video to understand what this signal may be telling you before the broader market finally catches on.
