May 9, 2025: FoxBusiness introduces the "dollar reset" idea promoted by monetary economist and former Trump advisor Judy Shelton, who received some positive feedback from Trump allies and business leaders like Larry Kudlow and Steve Forbes. Her proposal? A 50-year gold-backed bond to be issued on July 4, 2026 — anchoring the dollar to real value as a symbol of financial sovereignty.
November 27, 2024: Renowned economist and advocate of the gold standard, Judy Shelton, has once again brought the conversation on sound money to the forefront.
In a recent post on X, formerly Twitter, she posed a thought-provoking question:
"Why don't we use our gold as collateral for a new Treasury debt instrument?"
Shelton has proposed an innovative mechanism for reintroducing the gold standard - a 50-year Treasury bond convertible into gold, to be issued on July 4, 2026, under the initiative of President Donald Trump.
This move, she argues, could symbolize a return to fiscal discipline and monetary stability, aligning with the principles of America's founding.
A former economic advisor to President Trump, Shelton has been a vocal critic of the Federal Reserve and its monetary policies.
Her latest book, Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money, delves into the historical and practical benefits of a gold-backed monetary system, highlighting its potential to curb inflation, stabilize currencies, and restore trust in the U.S. dollar.

Quantum computing finance shining in the Wall Street

The quantum computing is the latest shiny new thing of Wall Street. A fundamentally new kind of computing will shake up finance - the question is when...
Simple algorithms could be in use within 18 months, with credit-scoring a plausible early application.
For many problems, a quantum computer with thousands of stable qubits is provably far faster than any non-quantum machine that could ever be built.

Vatican-Backed Report Urges Global Debt Relief

🙏🏛 A new Vatican-backed report, authored by a commission of leading global economists and experts, calls for urgent global debt relief to address the escalating crises of development and climate change. The Jubilee Report highlights that 54 developing countries now spend over 10% of their tax revenues just on interest payments, diverting critical resources away from health, education, and climate resilience. The report urges systemic reforms, including fairer debt restructuring and a reimagining of global finance to serve people and the planet, not just profits.
This initiative builds on the vision of Pope Francis, who declared 2025 a Jubilee Year focused on debt forgiveness and justice. Now, this mission is being carried forward by the new Pope, Leo XIV, who emphasized at his inauguration the urgent need to overcome economic systems that exploit the Earth and marginalize the poor. Under his leadership, the Vatican continues to champion debt relief as both a moral imperative and a practical step toward global equity and sustainability
