This morning in Tokyo the yield on Japan's 30 year Government Bond surged more than 8.6% in a single session, not 8.6 basis points. 8.6 PERCENT. The 10 year yield crossed 3%. For context, this is a move you would expect to see in a collapsing frontier economy not the world's third largest developed nation and not the largest foreign holder of United States debt. This is the type of spike that signals something has fundamentally broken in the global financial architecture. What you are witnessing is not a correction. It is not volatility. It is the beginning of a sovereign debt unraveling that will force central banks into decisions they have spent decades trying to avoid. Those decisions will send the price of silver into territory that right now seems impossible to the average investor.
