2023: Gold and Gold Mining
This research report will be available later.
Public Research Snapshots
USA Inflation
Terms.
The infrequent social terms that appear on this page are defined on this page as follows:
Social poverty. The social behavior of isolating yourself away from people who see or view the world differently than yourself [1]; see echo chamber, cancel culture and boycott as common examples of social poverty.
Background.
Since SqlinSix was founded by a researcher who still has data on both battery length and cost, the founder observed how easily data could be manipulated in ways the public might never uncover. After this observation, the founder began tracking other resources.
Alternatives.
SqlinSix avoids social poverty. SqlinSix highlights three sources that show inflation since 2000 (or earlier). SqlinSix also notes the highest inflation reported by these sources - one of which is part of the US central bank.
Federal reserve. Reports since 1913. Highest annual inflation reported since 2000 is 8% in 2022 (see Annual Percent Change (rate of inflation) column).
Investopedia. Reports since 1929. Highest annual inflation reported since 2000 is 7% in 2021 (see Inflation Rate YOY, From Previous Dec. column).
US inflation calculator. Reports since 2000. Highest annual inflation reported since 2000 is 8% in 2022 (see Ave column).
Index of Random Years.
Due to changes from artificial intelligence lifting information sources as its own without approval from those sources, SqlinSix shows a few random years for its own general inflation index. Given that SqlinSix highlighted the highest inflation reported in the above three sources, SqlinSix will note that the highest annual inflation it has found over the same period since 2000 was 19.37% (2007).
Year 2004. Index value 15.04
Year 2011. Index value 32.03
Year 2023. Index value 50.88

Strategy (MSTR) Crush Position
Terms.
The infrequent social terms that appear on this page are defined on this page as follows:
Social poverty. The social behavior of isolating yourself away from people who see or view the world differently than yourself [1]; see echo chamber, cancel culture and boycott as common examples of social poverty.
Complexity theory. The study of how a system with multiple interactive entities maintains order or dissolves (erupts) into chaos.
Gambling culture. A shared belief that the best use of time and money for a person centers on significant financial returns.
Productive culture. A shared belief that the best use of resources centers around expansion of resource use to increase output or significant reduction of resource use with the same output.
Put contract. A contract that provides the purchaser of the contract the right to sell a specific asset.
Short position. The act of borrowing shares to sell with an expectation the the share price will fall.
Crush position. The act of protected positioning against an asset and interactions it has with other assets. A crush does not use put options or short positions.
PAS. Price above spot; this is the actual price of gold that the gold seller is willing to let the buyer take possession.
Strategy (MSTR) Case In Favor.
SqlinSix avoids social poverty. Thus, SqlinSix links to a brief synposis from Strategy itself as to why Strategy believes that it is a favorable opportunity.
At the time of this writing, Michael Saylor is listed as a co-founder and executive chairman of Strategy on Wikipedia.
Strategy (MSTR) Risks.
SqlinSix views Strategy (MSTR) as a significant introduction of risk. This risk increases when considering complexity theory and how it applies to the involved system in the view of SqlinSix.
SqlinSix does not favor put contracts or short positions, as these require timing more than positioning. SqlinSix has entered into a crush position against Strategy (MSTR). SqlinSix does not - and will not - disclose the assets involved in this crush position. Any source claiming to have knowledge of this (or pretending to replicate it) is false. SqlinSix simply demonstrates on this page how it views risk and related popular instruments to offset risk.
Put and Short Position Observation.
While SqlinSix recognizes the significant risks of both put and short positions, SqlinSix also recognizes that perfectly-timed put and short positions may have significant returns. SqlinSix adds this observation to contextualize any media discussion later of a "brilliant trade" by a person or entity; this statement is disingenuous and unfortunately encourages a gambling culture over a productive culture as people seek attention or returns from speculations over innovation.
As a related observation, both put and short positions exist within the system they're positioning against - a violation of applied complexity theory in the view of SqlinSix. For this reason, neither of these would ever qualify as a crush position. All long, short, crush positions and put contracts carry significant risks that could result in the loss of everything.
Context Matters.
As is clear to anyone with reading comprehension, SqlinSix is not and will not engage in any put contract or short position against Strategy (MSTR). One should also be extremely cautious about reading any of this as a negative relative to the numeraire ("unit of account"). Strategy could return ten multiples against the US Dollar, possibly wiping out put contracts and short positions. This loss would not apply to a crush position if the crush position returned one hundred multiples against the US Dollar and ten multiples against MSTR.
In addition, SqlinSix builds solutions for clients that require both digital and non-digital data solutions, from raw data storage to advanced research. SqlinSix benefits from this project, as this project will require the skills required for both physical and digital data. To prevent false assumptions, SqlinSix has cleared specific references to any assets or entity that would be assumed to be used (even if not). This is to prevent false assumptions.
Because SqlinSix understands risks, but recognizes that the current culture does not, SqlinSix will only post the starting and current positions of the compared values along with Strategy (MSTR) while the crush position is ongoing. Unless the final column is titled "Ending Price (in Au)", SqlinSix will make updates on the schedule of its choosing.
As a reminder, no asset within the crush position is shown or discussed. The crush position will simply be labelled "[LABEL REMOVED]" and any source claiming to have information is false. All instruments listed including Strategy (MSTR), [LABEL REMOVED] and Balanced Au carry significant risk and could result in a major loss. Losses are guaranteed in life and SqlinSix theorizes that its crush position will outperform MSTER and Balanced Au over the period of time during this experiment.
Comparison*
Current phase: positions started and reported from beginning. All instruments reported and measured in gold (Au). The below table is updated maximum once per year.
*The comparison involves comparisons with Strategy (MSTR), Balanced Au as an independent measurement, and the asset (or assets) involved in the crush position ("[LABEL REMOVED]"). The crush position cannot contain put contracts or short positions and will only use Au for currency positions when exchanging or temporarily holding assets pre or post purchase of other assets as SqlinSix views Au as the lowest risk currency over 100-year averages.
**Balanced Au involves a position of 100% physical Au with 50% of the Au position being bonded or leased exclusively to Au-related businesses (no banks, investment banks, hedge funds, speculators, etc). An example of an Au lease or bond is here, though Monetary Metals may not have the restriction SqlinSix limits. Bonding and (or) leasing Au carries significant losses that could result in a complete loss. This is only used as a baseline for returns and not representative of the risk of bond or lease client selection. In addition, SqlinSix reports the Au price with the Au plus PAS. The yield for Balanced Au is 4% since half of the Au is bonded (bond yield estimate of 8%).
Humor: Education vs Tattoos
Background.
SqlinSix's founder observed in early research (2012) that Millennials overvalued both college education and tattoos. SqlinSix's founder humorously predicted that the education bubble would pop before the tattoo bubble did.
Articles.
While humorous, the education bubble did actually pop first. As alleged by The Hechinger Report, colleges are closing at a pace of one per week (SqlinSix's private data does not confirm this, but does show a significant decline in college education interest in the West).
Meanwhile, tattoos continue to be popular though the tattoo removal industry is one of the fastest growing industries. Some early investments in the tattoo removal industry have already seen significant returns and without much attention.
Perspective.
While humorous, SqlinSix does note that good research supported the education bubble popping first. The tattoo bubble will also pop, but later.
Will Artificial Intelligence End Employment?
Background.
SqlinSix has observed many predictions with artificial intelligence. A few of these predictions claim that work will not exist in the future. SqlinSix contributed some research to the below article that refutes this claim.
Article.
Will AI Be the End of Workers and Employees? Some of the research was researched and provided by SqlinSix.
SqlinSix will highlight that while irrelevant for that publication, the view of information as it relates to artificial intelligence fundamentally rests on a violation of private property. Societies that violate private property over time collapse. The same will apply to valuable information.
"The only cure for low prices is low prices." Users of AI will learn painfully that data is a bigger story than AI, even if this is overlooked at this moment.
