When you buy precious metals for the first time, it’s easy to make expensive mistakes. At GoldSilver, we’ve seen firsthand how investors succeed — and fail — when adding metals to their portfolios.  More investors are turning to precious metals as a way to protect their wealth and diversify beyond traditional stocks and bonds. But here’s the thing, there’s a right way and a wrong way to go about it.  We’ve seen too many investors learn these lessons the hard way. That’s why we’re sharing the nine most common (and costly) mistakes people make when buying precious metals — and more...

Fed Firestorm, Tariff Wars, and a Silver Surprise

Gold Retreats After Trump-Fed Showdown Gold prices pulled back Tuesday, settling around $3,340/oz after Monday’s spike that saw the metal briefly touch $3,370. The initial rally came as President Trump moved to oust Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, sending traders scrambling for safe havens. Cook, one of the Fed’s three sitting governors, has been a vocal advocate for maintaining the central bank’s independence. But the dust is settling, and investors are now questioning whether this political theater will actually change monetary policy or if it’s just another round of Washington saber-rattling. When politicians pressure the Fed, markets get nervous —...

At the Jackson Hole conference, Fed Chair Powell outlined major challenges reshaping the U.S. economy. He highlighted that higher tariffs are already lifting prices in some goods categories, with core goods up 1.1% year-over-year after declining through 2024. Immigration restrictions have caused labor force growth to plummet, with payroll growth averaging just 35,000 monthly over three months. GDP growth slowed to 1.2% annualized in the first half of 2025, half of 2024’s pace. Powell warned these aren’t temporary fluctuations but structural changes that monetary policy can’t easily fix. The Fed unveiled its revised five-year framework, returning to flexible inflation targeting...

"Stocks HAMMERED...Is This a Trump Plan?" What About Gold?

President Trump attempted to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Monday night, citing allegations of mortgage fraud. Cook immediately refused to resign, stating Trump lacks legal authority for the dismissal. The unprecedented move represents a major escalation in Trump’s efforts to control the Fed and push for lower interest rates. Legal experts predict an extensive court battle that could reach the Supreme Court, as no president has ever tried to fire a Fed governor before. The confrontation threatens the Fed’s political independence, which is crucial for fighting inflation.

Could Revaluing Gold Fix America's Fiscal Crisis?

In a time of mounting debt, rising interest payments, and inflationary pressures, some in financial and policy circles are floating a bold solution: revalue the U.S. government’s gold reserves. In a recent episode of the GoldSilver Show, Mike Maloney and Alan Hibbard break down what gold revaluation really means — and why it might not be the silver bullet some hope for. Here’s a deeper look into the most eye-opening parts of the discussion.  What Does “Revaluing Gold” Mean — And Why Now?  The U.S. Treasury holds over 261 million troy ounces of gold, but it values them at just...

Malaysia Leads Growth in Shariah-Compliant Gold Investing

Comex gold for August delivery settled marginally lower at $3,373.80, declining 60 cents or 0.02%, marking the fourth decline in six sessions. Despite the minor pullback, gold remains in strong position with a 27.87% gain from its 2025 low of $2,638.40 set in early January. The metal successfully shrugged off dollar strength, with analysts noting that Fed Chair Powell’s Jackson Hole remarks about potential September rate cuts and labor market risks have reinforced gold’s appeal. XS.com analyst Rania Gule suggests the downside pressures appear limited and temporary, with the broader bullish trend intact. Lower interest rates reduce the opportunity cost...

The precious metal rose as much as 0.6% to near $3,376 per ounce, supported by a weaker dollar. Cook refused to resign, stating Trump lacks the authority to fire her.

Fed Takes Conservative Stance on 2025 Rate Cuts

The Fed’s Jackson Hole conference exposed deep divisions as Chair Powell signaled potential September rate cuts while facing a “challenging situation” of stubborn inflation and weakening labor markets. Political tensions ran high, with President Trump threatening to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook and security notably increased amid confrontations. Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee acknowledged “cross-currents” in a “difficult environment”, highlighting the challenge of timing policy changes correctly. Two governors dissented at July’s meeting, suggesting more discord ahead. Powell introduced a simplified policy framework focusing on the Fed’s core mandates, receiving a standing ovation from global attendees who recognize Fed independence’s...

The Silver Investment Opportunity Gold Investors Are Missing

Silver rallied sharply toward 14-year highs after Fed Chair Powell’s dovish Jackson Hole speech triggered a dollar collapse and sent rate cut expectations soaring. Markets now price a 91% chance of a September rate cut, up from 72%, while the Dollar Index plunged 0.90% to 97.73, breaking below key moving averages. Treasury yields tumbled across the board, boosting non-yielding assets like silver. The metal has established critical support at $37.40-$37.50 and faces its next major test at the multi-year peak of $39.53. With Fed policy expectations tilted toward easing and the dollar under sustained pressure, silver maintains strong bullish momentum...

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.
