Person viewed from behind watching a steep red candlestick chart decline on a monitor at a home office desk
Silver dropped ~10% after the Trump-Xi summit ended without a deal. The silver-to-Dow ratio — how many ounces it takes to buy the Dow — sits near 659 today. In 1980, it took just 18. That gap is the whole argument....
The Trump-Xi Beijing summit priced in a trade breakthrough that never arrived. Silver built a 7% premium over four days — then gave it all back in one session. Here's the mechanism and why the structural case remains intact....
Gold bar in foreground with financial data dashboard on screen — the key gold price factors visualised
Gold hit an all-time high of $5,589 in January 2026 — then pulled back 18%. Here are the six macroeconomic factors that move gold prices, and why understanding them matters more than tracking the daily chart....
Bloomberg terminal showing gold spot price falling, beside gloved hands handling a 1000g gold bar — why is gold falling explained
Five things drove gold and silver lower this week — a stronger dollar, spiking Treasury yields, the hottest US producer inflation in over three years, a new Federal Reserve chair, and a Trump-Xi summit with no deal. All five are documented and short-term. Meanwhile, the People's Bank of China quietly made its largest gold purchase in 17 months. That contrast is the story....
Molten gold being poured from a crucible into an ingot mold at a refinery, with steam rising from the cast-iron surface
The World Bank's April 2026 Commodity Markets Outlook projects a 42% surge for gold and silver — outpacing every other commodity class. Here's what's driving the forecast and what it means for long-term investors....
Gold and silver bars resting on a price performance chart showing gold up 30% and silver down 20% — illustrating why silver drops more than gold during rate uncertainty
Silver fell 10× harder than gold on May 14, 2026 — not because of weakness, but because it runs on two demand engines: industrial and monetary. Three consecutive inflation beats repriced the industrial side. The monetary case got stronger....
Trading terminal displaying silver spot price at $84.00 with intraday high of $86.50 and low of $83.28 — silver price forecast 2026
Silver hit $121.64 in January, corrected hard through April, then surged 6% in a single session on May 11 after a US-China tariff truce — before pulling back again on sticky inflation data. In May 2026, silver is not short of drama. What it is short of is clarity. These four numbers provide it....
What Do Central Banks Know About Gold That You Don't?
Central banks purchased a net 244 metric tons of gold in Q1 2026 — the fastest pace in over a year — despite prices hitting a record $5,405 per ounce. The World Gold Council data reveals who's buying, who's selling, and why this relentless accumulation at all-time highs signals a growing loss of confidence in fiat currencies. If central banks are protecting themselves regardless of price, the rest of us should be paying attention....
Gold bars resting on cracked stone surface — why is gold near all-time highs as five institutional systems crack simultaneously
Gold is holding near all-time highs because five institutional systems are under simultaneous stress: a new Fed chair inheriting uncontrollable inflation, mortgage rates at a six-month high, India's gold market fracturing under a sudden import duty hike, a US-Iran ceasefire on life support, and a World Bank forecast of 42% precious metals gains in 2026. These aren't five separate stories. They're the same story told five ways....

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.
