Gold just said "hold my beer" to Bitcoin (why Gold's volatility is actually a good thing)
And no, this is not a guide on how to day-trade the apocalypse.

I was sitting at my desk on Thursday morning, January 30th, watching Gold crater 10% in real time. My 9-year-old walked in and asked me why I looked like someone had stolen my lunch.

“Daddy’s watching a safe haven act like a Bitcoin,?I said.

She didn’t get it.

Fair enough. Most of Wall Street didn’t get it either.

Because here is a thing that actually happened this week: Gold’s 30-day realized volatility hit 44%. Bitcoin’s was sitting around 39%.

Let’s just pause and appreciate how stupid that sentence is.

Gold is the Grandpa of assets.

It’s 5,000 years old. Lives in a vault. Wears a cardigan. And it’s supposed to harmlessly sit in the corner and protect your purchasing power from inflation.

Bitcoin is the neurotic friend who texts you at 3 AM about a "revolutionary" new way to earn money on the blockchain.

And yet, this week, the roles reversed.

Grandpa Gold got completely wasted and started running through the town square screaming, while the Bitcoin friend sat quietly reading a book.

The financial press, predictably, had a meltdown. Reuters was writing articles about "unwanted volatility." Twitter (I refuse to call it X, sorry Elon) is a support group for people who bought the top.

But here’s my unpopular opinion - almost all of them are wrong.

Gold’s drunk volatile behavior is actually the most bullish thing ever.

One bad trade this week costs more than a year of this report. Don’t let that be this week.
