Gold Could Hit $4,000, Silver to Outshine as Oil Prices Slide – Peter McGuire

Trading.com CEO Peter McGuire expects gold and silver to surge in the second half of 2025, with gold possibly reaching $3,600–$4,000 and silver exceeding $40. He cites a weakening US dollar, an anticipated US rate cut, and strong investor demand as key drivers. While gold briefly corrected after US President Trump confirmed no tariffs on precious metals, McGuire believes Q3 and Q4 will be bullish for bullion, with silver showing greater percentage gains. He also predicts crude oil prices will decline in Q4 due to reduced geopolitical tensions, abundant supply, and falling inflation — factors that could lower energy costs...

Barrick CEO: Gold Miners Unfazed as U.S. Mulls Tariffs on Bullion Bars

Uncertainty looms over the gold market as Washington considers tariffs on imported gold bullion bars, a move that has already rattled prices and disrupted global trade. Barrick Mining CEO Mark Bristow says the industry awaits official clarification, but downplays potential negative effects, noting miners could benefit if prices rise. Barrick’s Q2 earnings exceeded forecasts, supported by higher gold prices, even as production fell due to halted Mali operations amid a dispute with the military government. The company has no plans to sell its Loulo-Gounkoto mine despite losing control and incurring a $1.03 billion write-down.

Analysts See Silver Rising 15–20% as Deficits Persist

Silver’s rally — up 35% in the past 12 months — is being fueled by a mix of industrial demand and safe-haven investment. Uses in photovoltaics, EVs, and electronics have driven consumption to 1.16 billion ounces in 2024, while annual mine supply remains near 1.02 billion ounces, causing structural deficits for five straight years. Since about 70–80% of silver is a byproduct of other mining, production is relatively inelastic. While inflation has cooled slightly, expected U.S. interest rate cuts and a weaker dollar could further boost silver prices. Analyst forecasts vary widely—from $28 to $50 over the next year —...

ETF Inflows Drive Gold Demand to Highest First-Half Levels Since 2020

In the first half of 2025, gold prices soared 26% to record highs, yet investors continued to buy in, especially through ETFs. The World Gold Council’s Q2 Gold Demand Trends report shows total global investment demand jumped 78% year-on-year, marking the strongest half-year since 2020. ETF inflows in Australia and worldwide offset earlier 2024 outflows, driven by fears of economic slowdown, geopolitical tensions, and currency debasement. Central banks continued large-scale purchases, adding 166 tonnes in Q2, while bar and coin buying rose 11%, led by Chinese and Indian investors. Jewellery demand, however, fell sharply. Analysts say ongoing market volatility and...

Silver Squeeze Incoming? Fact-Checking the Viral Claims Rocking the Market

Is the silver market on the brink of a massive squeeze?  That’s the question rattling around investing circles after a viral Twitter thread — highlighted in Mike Maloney’s recent video — claimed that silver deliveries are exploding, LBMA reserves are scraping the bottom, lease rates are spiking, and premiums in China are going wild. In his latest deep dive, Alan Hibbard from GoldSilver separates hype from reality — fact-checking each claim with hard data from COMEX, LBMA, and Bloomberg. While some numbers don’t hold up, the overall picture still points to one thing: silver’s fundamentals are the tightest they’ve been...

Gold Rally Could Hit $3,800 by Mid-October

Analysts see gold heading toward $3,800 by mid-October, driven by powerful seasonal and cyclical forces. August and September historically deliver the strongest gains for gold—up 61% and 54% of the time, respectively—and the current rising monthly cycle boosts those odds even further. Technical analysis confirms this bullish case: a recent breakdown from a triangle formation proved false, and measuring the triangle’s height projects a $3,800 target. While momentum may carry prices higher into October 15, history warns that gold and oil often weaken in the second half of October. For investors, SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) offers direct exposure, while ProShares...

Asia’s Ultra-Rich Turn Gold Traders Amid Soaring Demand

Asia’s richest families are taking a hands-on approach to gold, running operations more like 19th-century trading houses than passive investors. Multi-family offices and dealers such as Cavendish Investment Corp., J. Rotbart & Co., and Goldstrom are sourcing gold from African mines, refining it in Hong Kong, and selling it to Asian and Chinese buyers for premiums. High geopolitical tensions, inflation fears, and a weaker US dollar are fueling demand, with wealthy investors in Hong Kong and mainland China sharply increasing their gold allocations. Beyond trading, some are leasing gold for steady returns, engaging in cross-market arbitrage, or using it as...

Gold Rebounds as Traders Await Key U.S. Inflation Data

Gold rebounded slightly after Monday’s selloff, with markets eyeing U.S. CPI data due later today for signals on the Fed’s interest rate path. Analysts say a weaker-than-expected core CPI could boost the odds of a September rate cut — currently seen at 85% — which would favor gold by reducing holding costs and keeping bond yields in check. Trump’s decision to skip gold import tariffs and extend a pause on higher China tariffs provided some market relief. Silver, platinum, and palladium also advanced.

Trump’s No-Tariff Pledge Brings Calm to Gold Market

US gold futures and spot prices have moved back in line after President Trump reassured markets that imported bullion will not face US tariffs. Last week, a surprise ruling from US Customs caused futures prices on COMEX to spike over $100 above London spot prices. Trump’s post, “Gold will not be Tariffed!” helped narrow the gap to about $50, calming traders. Industry leaders welcomed the statement but stressed that only a formal decision will give the gold market complete certainty.

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.
