Federal Reserve Building Washington DC exterior — gold price jobs report
April payrolls hit 115,000 — more than double the 55,000 Dow Jones consensus — and the dollar sold off anyway. Gold held at $4,723. Soft wages and persistent inflation expectations explain why the Fed is frozen. Here's the mechanism....
Gold bar with rising price chart alongside oil pump jack at sunset with declining price chart, illustrating the gold and oil inverse correlation
Gold is trading near $4,700/oz while Brent crude surged past $120/bbl before pulling back sharply. The two commodities keep moving in opposite directions — and the reason reveals something important about protecting wealth in volatile markets. (243 characters)...
Gold bar resting on financial newspaper — gold price structural bid holds firm amid jobs data and deficit news
April payrolls smashed forecasts, the U.S.-Iran ceasefire held under pressure, and the OMB projected a $2.065 trillion deficit. Gold barely moved. Five briefs explain why the structural case for physical gold is stronger than any single headline....
Why Peace Is Bullish for Gold in 2026 (And War Isn't)
War usually pushes gold higher. But since Operation Epic Fury began in February 2026, the opposite has played out — gold sells off on escalation and rallies on peace. The reason ties back to fiscal dominance, oil prices, and the path to lower interest rates. This article breaks down the pattern, the macro logic behind it, and what it means for short-term and long-term gold investors....
Two Credit Suisse gold bars resting on a worn copy of Benjamin Graham's The Intelligent Investor — the foundational text behind Warren Buffett's investment principles — alongside handwritten financial notes on a dark walnut desk.
Warren Buffett has avoided gold for decades — but his 7 core investment principles map almost perfectly onto the long-term case for owning physical gold and silver. Here's how the Oracle of Omaha's rules apply to precious metals investors....
Gold bars in the foreground with a blurred financial trading terminal displaying price charts in the background, illustrating the gold price outlook amid oil futures divergence in 2026.
The World Gold Council's April commentary carries a loaded title: "The Return of Transitory." It's a warning — equity markets have priced the Iran-Hormuz crisis as a passing shock, but oil futures are pricing a 22–25% premium over pre-crisis levels through year-end. One of those markets is wrong, and that gap is the most important signal in gold right now....
999 fine silver bullion bars stacked on a dark surface with an oil refinery glowing at dusk in the background — illustrating why silver price is rising today as falling oil prices ease inflation expectations and drive precious metals higher
Silver hit $82 today — not because of silver news, but because a reported US-Iran peace deal sent oil lower, eased inflation expectations, and reopened the Fed's path to rate cuts. Here's the full mechanism behind the move....

Gold and Bitcoin both claim the "hard asset" crown — but the data tells a nuanced story. While Bitcoin delivered 121% gains in 2024, gold absorbed every market shock with far less damage to your portfolio. Here's how to decide which belongs in yours....
Elderly hands holding a thick bundle of worn 5000 peso banknotes — illustrating a loss of faith currency crisis and the collapse of purchasing power
Hyperinflation doesn't always start at the printing press. When people stop trusting a currency, its purchasing power can collapse overnight. History — from Weimar to Zimbabwe — shows why gold endures when faith in paper money fails....

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.
