Gold’s Quickest $500 Climb in History

Brandon Sauerwein, Editor

Gold’s Climb from $2,500 to $3,000 Took Only 210 Days

If gold’s meteoric rise from $2,500 to $3,000 felt quick to you, the data confirms your suspicions.

“On average, gold takes 1,708 days to climb $500 increments, but this latest jump took just 210 days,” notes Taylor Burnette, Research Lead at the World Gold Council.

For reference, the move from $1,500 to $2,000 took a slow 3,394 days, or a little over nine years. Meanwhile, this latest $500 move happened in just seven months.

Are we reaching the top of the market when it comes to the price of gold? Or are we just getting started on this bull run?

Why Gold’s Momentum Is Different This Time

Unlike previous bull markets that have typically been driven by one main factor, today’s gold surge is supported by a perfect storm of multiple catalysts:  

• Central Bank Buying: Major central banks have purchased over 1,000 tons of gold annually since 2022, creating unprecedented demand pressure from institutional buyers 
• Geopolitical Tension & Trade Policy: The new Trump administration’s sweeping tariffs on imports from China, Mexico, and other trading partners have increased market volatility and economic uncertainty, driving investors toward safe-haven assets 
• Global Economic Instability: Rising inflation concerns, supply chain disruptions, and currency fluctuations across major economies have strengthened gold’s appeal as a stable store of value 
• Inflation Concerns: Despite official numbers showing moderation, real-world inflation continues affecting household budgets 
• De-dollarization Trends: Several emerging economies have accelerated efforts to reduce dependence on the US dollar, with gold serving as a natural alternative 

What makes this rally particularly noteworthy isn’t just its velocity but its resilience. Gold has maintained its upward trajectory despite fluctuations in interest rates and equity markets — something rarely seen in previous cycles.

As Mike Maloney often says, “It’s not that gold is getting more valuable, it’s that currencies are losing purchasing power at an accelerating rate.”

Silver’s Hidden Potential: Beyond the Gold Rally

We all know that gold has been rallying over the last few months and making headlines.

In his latest eye-opening interview, precious metals authority Alan Hibbard reveals why silver — not just the headline-grabbing gold — may be positioned for a dramatic breakout.

While gold continues its impressive climb, Hibbard makes a compelling case for why silver deserves your immediate attention. He explains:

• The overlooked catalysts driving both precious metals markets
• A nuanced comparison between traditional metals and cryptocurrency investments
• Strategic portfolio allocation advice from an industry veteran 

Whether you’re a seasoned investor or just beginning to explore alternative assets, Hibbard’s timely analysis provides critical perspective on gold, silver, and Bitcoin in today’s economic landscape. 

What Else is in the News?

⚠️ MOODY’S: TRUMP TARIFFS PUT U.S. ECONOMIC STABILITY AT RISK
Moody’s, one of the world’s largest credit rating agencies that evaluates financial stability of governments and corporations, has issued a stark warning that new tariff policies could weaken America’s economic stability and exacerbate U.S. deficit concerns. With U.S. government debt affordability at multi-decade lows and the deficit set to balloon to 8.5% of GDP over the next decade, economic headwinds may intensify.

💵 $100 TRILLION AND CLIMBING: WORLD FACES MOUNTING DEBT 
World debt has crossed the $100 trillion threshold as governments pay the highest interest costs in two decades. With nearly half of all government debt needing refinancing by 2027 and interest payments exceeding defense spending, precious metals could become increasingly attractive as a hedge against financial instability.

🥈 SILVER: THE NEXT PRECIOUS METAL TO SHINE? 
Missed gold’s historic rally? Silver might be your second chance.  

• With a market cap ($1.9 trillion) substantially smaller than gold’s roughly $20 trillion, silver typically experiences more dramatic price movements during bull markets.
• Trading around $33-34 per ounce, silver remains far from its 2011 high of $47/oz, suggesting substantial upside potential.
• The current gold-to-silver ratio of roughly 90:1 far exceeds the historical average of 70:1 since the 1980s, indicating silver is undervalued relative to gold.
