Gold surged 26% in the first half of 2025, setting 26 all-time highs and becoming one of the year’s top-performing assets, according to the World Gold Council.
While momentum may slow in H2, ongoing geopolitical risks, inflation, or economic downturns could push prices even higher. Gold remains a resilient hedge as global uncertainty continues.

The Fed’s June 2026 dot plot split the committee down the middle on rate hikes, the dollar surged to its highest since May 2025, and silver posted its sharpest drop in weeks before recovering nearly 70% of the loss. The same week, the World Gold Council reported a record 45% of central banks plan to add gold. The headwinds are real. So is the floor.
Barclays held its $4,791 gold target through a 26% correction. Here’s the fair-value framework behind that call — and what it means for gold investors today.
The gold/silver ratio fell from 85:1 to 64:1 in five weeks. History shows that at this level, compression is typically just beginning — not ending. Here’s what three major bull cycles say about where silver stands today.
Silver climbed 2.8% on the Iran peace deal this morning, then gave it all back as the FOMC’s rate-hike signal reasserted itself. Gold barely moved. The gap between the two metals today shows exactly why silver behaves differently — and what physical holders need to understand about both forces.
Kevin Warsh scrapped forward guidance and skipped the dot plot at his first Fed meeting. Paper gold fell 2%, then recovered. Here’s why the biggest shift in Fed communication since 2008 leaves the structural case for physical gold exactly where it was.

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.
