They’re Losing Control of Gold and Silver Prices

For decades, a hidden war has kept precious metals prices in check. But the cracks are widening, and the system is slipping. As Mike Maloney explains in his latest video, this “criminal suppression” may actually be the greatest opportunity precious metals investors have ever been handed. 

The Dollar’s Collapse Against Gold 

In just three years, the U.S. dollar has lost 50% of its value against gold. Think about that. Half your purchasing power — gone. 

Wall Street can no longer ignore it. Jeffrey Gundlach, the “Bond King,” now recommends 25% gold exposure. Morgan Stanley has shifted its traditional 60/40 portfolio model into a 60/20/20 — with 20% allocated to gold. Even JP Morgan is going long gold, silver, and platinum while shorting oil and base metals — a clear sign they expect an economic slowdown. 

The mainstream financial world is finally admitting what gold investors have known for years. 

Supply Shocks and the Great Unwind 

While demand is building, supply is tightening. Freeport-McMoRan just declared force majeure at one of the world’s largest gold and copper mines in Indonesia. Less supply means more pressure on prices. 

Meanwhile, central banks are quietly unwinding years of gold leasing and rehypothecation. This practice created “phantom gold” — the same bars being lent, leased, and claimed multiple times. As those contracts are unwound, the illusion of abundant supply disappears. That alone could send prices surging. 

Evidence Is Being Hidden 

The London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) has stopped providing historical gold and silver price fixes to Kitco and other outlets. Why hide the data? As Mike points out, it looks a lot like shredding evidence before a trial. 

Independent analysis shows that if you removed the price suppression during London trading hours since 1971, today’s gold price would be closer to $50,000 per ounce. Suppression has kept prices down — but the pressure is building like a coiled spring. 

Why This Matters Now 

The divergence between gold and traditional financial metrics is widening. ETF holdings no longer explain price action — central bank buying does. Nations burned by sanctions and asset seizures are stocking up on gold, not U.S. Treasuries. 

As Mike says, this suppression is your opportunity. The longer they hold it down, the higher it will snap back when control slips. And that moment is getting closer.

People Also Ask 

Why do experts say gold is being suppressed? 

Gold and silver prices have been artificially pressured for decades through leasing, rehypothecation, and concentrated trading in London hours. Mike Maloney explains how this suppression is now breaking down — creating one of the biggest opportunities in history for precious metals investors. 👉 Watch the full video here. 

How much has the dollar lost compared to gold? 

In just three years, the U.S. dollar has lost 50% of its value versus gold. This silent collapse is why major Wall Street figures like Jeffrey Gundlach now recommend heavy gold allocations. 

What happens if central banks unwind gold leases? 

Unwinding leased and rehypothecated gold contracts removes “phantom supply” from the market. As those paper claims vanish, the real price of gold could rise dramatically. 

Could gold really hit $50,000 per ounce? 

Analysis shows that if you strip out decades of London trading suppression, gold would already be priced near $50,000/oz. While that number isn’t a forecast, it highlights just how distorted today’s price is. Watch Mike explain why the spring is ready to snap. 

Why are Wall Street banks suddenly bullish on gold? 

JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and other major institutions are now recommending 20–25% gold allocations. With supply disruptions and economic risks mounting, they’re hedging against a slowdown — exactly what gold was built for.
