Financial trading floor showing London and Hong Kong time zone clocks — gold price discovery Asia
For almost a century, gold's price has been set in London — by banks, in a paper market, in the wrong time zone. Hong Kong is building the infrastructure to challenge that. Here's how it works and what it means....
Gold price analysis report showing $6,000 target with a 1000g fine gold bar and upward price chart — gold price today May 2026
Gold dropped to ~$4,502 this morning on rising yields and a stronger dollar. Bank of America has a $6,000 target. Goldman Sachs says buy the dip. Five developments, one thread — and the mechanism connecting them is more important than today's price move....
Gold bars in front of the Federal Reserve building — gold price non-reaction Iran ceasefire
Trump called off a planned strike on Iran Monday afternoon. Oil fell over 1%. Gold slipped 0.23%. That's not a non-event — it's a signal. The gold price isn't moving on war or peace news because it's no longer the war holding it up. It's the Fed trap: a central bank that can't raise rates into a $39 trillion debt and can't cut while inflation runs hot. Until that changes, the floor holds....
Gold price Iran pause monetary floor: three gold bars stacked on a dark surface against a red financial data display showing U.S. national debt figures
Trump's decision to pause a planned Iran strike sent gold swinging $45 intraday and crude oil down more than 2% — but the two metals told completely different stories. Oil priced out the geopolitical risk. Gold barely moved. Five briefs explain why: Iran is the catalyst, not the cause. The monetary fundamentals driving gold — $39 trillion in national debt, fifteen years of money creation, central banks in their fifteenth straight year of net buying — don't get resolved by a phone call....
Three allocated gold bars stamped A15846, A15847, and A15848 — each marked 999.9 fine gold — stacked on a vault shelf, illustrating the difference between allocated vs unallocated gold ownership.
Most gold doesn't move when it's "traded" — it changes hands as a ledger entry in an unallocated account. A new report shows Dubai is building a different system entirely, where ownership means a specific bar, not a claim on a pool. Here's what the difference means for your portfolio....
Financial analyst reviewing a U.S. Treasury yield curve chart beside a gold bar — central bank gold buying underreported as institutional demand holds steady
Goldman Sachs revealed central bank gold demand was being systematically undercounted. HSBC raised silver forecasts but flagged real limits. Treasury yields hit a one-year high. The institutions that understand sovereign debt risk best are still buying. Here's what's driving each story....
Two 1000g gold bars resting on a Sovereign Credit Rating Report on a grey granite surface, illustrating the relationship between US credit downgrade and gold prices
One year ago, Moody's completed a 15-year process — stripping the US of its last AAA credit rating. Gold closed at $3,237 that day. It trades above $4,550 today. Here's what happened, why it happened, and what it means for the year ahead....
The Trump-Xi Beijing summit priced in a trade breakthrough that never arrived. Silver built a 7% premium over four days — then gave it all back in one session. Here's the mechanism and why the structural case remains intact....
Bloomberg terminal showing gold spot price falling, beside gloved hands handling a 1000g gold bar — why is gold falling explained
Five things drove gold and silver lower this week — a stronger dollar, spiking Treasury yields, the hottest US producer inflation in over three years, a new Federal Reserve chair, and a Trump-Xi summit with no deal. All five are documented and short-term. Meanwhile, the People's Bank of China quietly made its largest gold purchase in 17 months. That contrast is the story....
Gold and silver bars resting on a price performance chart showing gold up 30% and silver down 20% — illustrating why silver drops more than gold during rate uncertainty
Silver fell 10× harder than gold on May 14, 2026 — not because of weakness, but because it runs on two demand engines: industrial and monetary. Three consecutive inflation beats repriced the industrial side. The monetary case got stronger....

Samantha is wonderful. I was nervous about spending a chunk of money. I asked her to `hold my hand’ and walk me through making my purchase.  
She laughed and guided me through, step by step. She was so helpful in explaining everything...

Travis was amazing! I was having difficulty with a wire transfer of my life’s savings, and I was very worried that I might not be able to receive it all. My husband just passed away and I’ve been worried about these funds along with grieving for 8 months. As soon as I got connected with Travis, my concerns were immediately addressed and he put me at ease. The issue was resolved within days. He even called me back with updates to keep me in the loop about what was going on with the funds. I am so grateful for a customer representative like Travis. He really cares for his clients.

Sam was also very helpful! I called and was connected to Sam within 30 seconds. She helped me with a fee that was charged to my account. She had a great attitude and took care of the fee quickly.

    Outstanding quality and customer service. I first discovered Mike Maloney through his “Secrets of Money” video series. It was an excellent precious metals education. I was a financial advisor and it really helped me learn more about wealth protection. I used this knowledge to help protect my clients retirements. I purchase my precious metals through goldsilver.com. It is easy, fast and convenient. I also invested my IRA’s and utilize their excellent storage options. Bottom line, Mike and his team have earned my trust. I continue to invest in wealth protection and my own education. I give back and help others see the opportunities to invest in precious metals. Thank you.
