From Pharaoh’s Bracelet to Powell’s Pivot
It’s a story almost too strange to believe.
A 3,000-year-old golden bracelet once worn by Pharaoh Amenemope — priceless, ornate, and irreplaceable — was stolen from Cairo’s Egyptian Museum and sold off for a mere $3,700. Worse: It was melted down for its raw gold.
That bracelet survived millennia of wars, empires, and dynasties… until 2025, when it was finally destroyed, not for cultural or political reasons, but for the most mundane of all motives: profit.
This is where we are. The gold bull market has grown so powerful that criminals are literally destroying history to get their hands on the metal.
And it’s not just petty criminals sensing this shift — it’s central banks, sovereign wealth funds, Wall Street, and retail investors. The signal couldn’t be clearer: Owning gold is no longer optional. It’s mandatory.
Don’t Fight the Fed
The Federal Reserve just fired the opening shot of a new era. Jerome Powell cut rates 25 basis points to 4.00%–4.25% — the first cut since the tightening cycle began.
“Risks to inflation are tilted to the upside and risks to employment to the downside — a challenging situation,” Powell admitted, while insisting the Fed remains “well positioned to respond in a timely way.”
That’s Fedspeak for we’re done fighting inflation at all costs.
And the oldest Wall Street maxim applies here: Don’t fight the Fed. When the Fed pivots, liquidity returns, assets reprice higher, and the table is set for bull markets across the board.
The Three-Cut Thesis
History shows us that the third cut is the magic moment.

Across the last 10 easing cycles, the S&P 500 has averaged 11% over the following 12 months. Gold has fared even better: 31% (2000), 39% (2007), and 26% (2019).
When the Fed cuts three times in a row, it’s not a “pause.” It’s a regime change.
Why Gold and Silver Lead the Charge
Gold is already at record highs above $3,700. Silver, long the “poorer cousin,” is poised to follow — supercharged by industrial demand from EVs, solar, and semiconductors.
The drivers are undeniable:
- Central bank binge-buying: Nations are hoarding bullion like it’s the 1970s all over again.
- Supply crisis: Mining projects are blocked, delayed, or canceled. Discoveries are rarer than ever.
- Inflation persistence: Food, energy, and wage costs keep real rates low, even with nominal cuts.
- Geopolitical chaos: From Ukraine to the South China Sea, gold’s safe-haven role has never been stronger.
And now we add the most powerful tailwind of all: The Fed is cutting.
A Bull Market in Everything
Here’s the broader truth: We’re not just looking at a bull market in gold and silver. We’re staring at a bull market in nearly everything.
- Equities: Lower discount rates lift growth stocks, especially AI and tech infrastructure.
- Commodities: Energy, metals, and materials rally as liquidity fuels demand.
- Precious Metals: Gold and silver lead the parade, offering torque and insurance.
This is a rare alignment — like 1982, 1995, and 2009. Every major easing cycle that wasn’t born of outright collapse has launched multi-year bull markets.
The Wealth Daily Playbook
- Stay overweight bullion and quality miners. Add on dips.
- Silver is the leverage trade. Own producers tied to industrial demand.
- Tech isn’t dead. Profitable AI and cloud names will continue to roar back as rates fall.
- Watch the second and third cuts. That’s when capital rotation will shift into overdrive.
Final Word
When a Pharaoh’s bracelet is melted down for scrap, it tells us something profound: In this moment, the metal matters more than the history.
And when Powell cuts rates, it tells us something even more profound: the Fed just declared open season on risk assets.
The next three years will be a bull market in everything.
But in gold and silver, it will be nothing short of historic.
Get to the good, green grass first.
