It isn't often that you check the markets over your first cup of coffee and find gold up over $100.
But that's precisely what greeted me as I switched on CNBC this morning. (And yes, I am a closed-captioning boomer.)

Shades of October 2008 -- March 2020!
Over the past week we have seen similarities with those two previous crises in that gold and silver have been alternately sold off as investors desperately raised cash for margin calls, and then bouncing higher as traders bet on more mayhem and easier money.
Today (or rather, last night) we got another throwback -- the feeling that the global financial system was in danger. ...

AVANT PRAIRIE, Texas -- In an ironic twist of fate, family members of a local doomsday prepper announced that he had died before the world ended.
Hank Klepper, a longtime believer that the United States would someday be invaded by China and everyone would be forced to eat rice, was found dead of a heart attack during a wellness check after he failed to accept a Door Dash delivery.

China’s central bank added gold to its reserves for a fifth straight month in March, deepening its bet on the precious metal as a haven asset amid rising global trade and geopolitical turmoil.
Gold held by the People’s Bank of China rose by 0.09 million troy ounces last month, according to data released on Monday. The central bank’s recent run of buying started in November, after a six-month hiatus that followed an 18-month buying spree. ...

Chinese copper buyers used today's collapse in prices below $8,500 a ton to significantly increase purchases, traders said, helping to trigger a dramatic rebound even as a rout in other global markets deepened.
Copper prices plunged as much as 7.7% within 15 minutes of opening on the London Metal Exchange, before reversing direction to rally nearly $1,000 in a little over two hours -- the largest intraday move since 2009. The trading became so frenetic that copper volumes on the LME in the second hour of trading were the highest of any hour since Donald Trump's election in 2016.

The fate of the country's reserves that were frozen abroad as punishment for Russian President Vladimir Putin's 2022 invasion of Ukraine remains uncertain. The European Union hasn't ruled out using some of the funds to help Kyiv to fight against Russia or to finance reconstruction after the conflict ends.
In the worst-case scenario, where none of the frozen assets are recovered, the increase in the value of Russia's gold would compensate for about a third of the potential losses. Should U.S. President Donald Trump's efforts to end the war lead to the unfreezing of all of the remaining reserves, the Kremlin would sit on a financial cushion the likes of which it has never had before. ...

LONDON -- In times of market panic investors tend to rush to the safety of the dollar, but when stocks swooned in response to U.S. tariffs this week, they ran away from it. Investors say it's a sign that the greenback's global standing may be eroding.
The dollar, for decades a safe haven, on Thursday fell about 1.7% in its biggest daily drop since November 2022 after President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on imports at levels not seen since the early 1900s. Stock markets also tanked, as tariffs ignited recession worries.

In interviews and published markets commentaries, many investors and analysts pointed to the Trump administration for the anomaly. Its protectionist policies, upending of the global economic order in place since World War II, and a growing U.S. debt pile have been chipping away at the dollar's appeal, they say.
Left unchecked, a crisis of confidence in the dollar could also undermine its position as the world's reserve currency, they added. ...
