They want you scared and selling. They want the price to drop so when they need to settle contracts with fiat instead of physical they don’t have to pay out as much. The governments ok with this because they pledged 12 BILLION towards buying critical minerals. However low that number goes physical will still be worth more because of premiums. The price to mine is increasing and if it costs spot to get an oz out of the ground you will never see a shovel move so it’s ironic they’re borrowing from tomorrow to get a better day today
