Metals
After this morning’s rally, though, one bitcoin is worth more than 23 ounces of gold, and the ratio increases by one ounce for every 4% rally in bitcoin. Based on the relative strength of bitcoin versus gold, gold 1.0 looks a lot less shiny these days. When bitcoin last peaked in late 2017, the ratio of bitcoin to gold peaked at just under 15. A year ago today, the ratio was under six ounces of gold for every bitcoin. Gold marginally extended its recovery off last week’s two-month low, near $1785.A move above $1820 could spur another $10 rally.
Back in early January, the ratio surged to more than 21 ounces of gold for every bitcoin. Bloomberg’s Joe Wiesenthal touched a nerve with this tweet last week, showing that gold prices had dropped since the Georgia Senate runoffs. One of the primary arguments for bitcoin these days is it serves as a digital store of value- or gold 2.0. Lots of stimulus out there just waiting to be implemented almost certainly means that gold will go higher given enough time.
Seems like we’re not talking enough about the fact that gold has been tanking ever since the Georgia runoff election.

Oil
Chevron and Exxon are two of the major oil companies that did not cut its dividend in 2020 after the price of crude oil plummetted. Oil companies continue to struggle and try to find their way, despite a slight rebound in the price per barrel of oil. With an estimated 590 million barrels of oil and the potential to produce 160,000 barrels per day, Willow would be the westernmost operating oil field in Arctic Alaska. less The MCX-Crude oil futures contract has been on an intermediate-term uptrend since April last year when it recorded a low of ₹795 per barrel (BBL).
BEFORE THE BELL Futures for Canada’s main stock index rose as oil prices gained, boosted by supply cuts among key producers. Oil hit a fresh yearly high on Monday boosted by supply cuts among kjey producers and hopes for additional US stimulus measures which would boost demand.

United States
Everything looks rosy when stocks keep going up: With a new round of stimulus and the Fed in the market’s corner that could continue for a while. She doesn’t think Fed policy has made markets unstable, nor does she anticipate any changes in monetary policy from the market turbulence. Strong data plays to optimism that the US economy will come roaring back this year as more and more people get vaccinated.

On Friday the US Senate passed a budget resolution that allows for the passage of the fiscal stimulus package in the coming weeks without Republican support. The company is in talks to come to public markets to combine with a special-purpose acquisition company, The Wall Street Journal reported last month. There is no argument that fiscal stimulus (of any amount ever) makes it more difficult for the Fed to avoid both accelerating inflation and recession.
In the 12 months to December, the US budget deficit amounted to $3.3 trillion, versus a tad above $1 trillion last March. US Treasury yields have been on the rise for the last few weeks as the US economy continues to pick-up from its pandemic-induced low. If the Fed has prevented an acceleration of inflation, the success would not show up in Summers’ survey of what happens after inflation accelerates.

Rollover deal | Ghana and the U.K. have signed an interim trade agreement, one of the last bilateral deals hanging in the balance following Brexit.

Allies in the European Union have their own strategic concerns yet still want an investment treaty with China to solidify economic links.
