“There is an Explosion in Gold Coming”

“There is an Explosion in Gold Coming”

For 20 years, we’ve been analyzing market data, identifying patterns, and helping investors protect their purchasing power.

Today, we’re sharing something extraordinary. Since our founding in 2005, we’ve watched gold quietly outperform the S&P 500, delivering a remarkable 99.4% return. But what Alan and Mike’s latest research reveals is even more striking. As Mike puts it, “There’s an explosion in gold coming” – and the data suggests he’s right.

“There’s An Explosion in Gold Coming” — Mike Maloney

5 Amazing Gold & Silver Charts, "The Best Is Yet To Come" - Mike Maloney & Alan Hibbard

In this special anniversary analysis, Alan and Mike have uncovered a disturbing trend: money supply (M2) is growing at 6.2% annually – more than double the official inflation rate. The pressure building in the system isn’t just unprecedented; it’s unsustainable.

As legendary silver expert Dave Morgan observed, “80% of the move comes in the last 20% of the time.” This pattern, combined with our latest research, suggests the biggest gains in this gold and silver bull market are still ahead.

Revisiting History: The 2008-2011 Gold Bull Market

Gold’s journey from 2008 to 2011 tells a powerful story. Breaking $1,000 per ounce in March 2008, gold soared to a historic peak of $1,917.90 by August 2011. 

Revisiting History: The 2008-2011 Gold Bull Market

During the 2008 financial crisis, retail buyers faced severe bullion shortages, paying premiums up to 25% above spot price.

This intense physical demand, combined with economic turmoil and Fed intervention, drove gold up as high as 167% from its 2008 low, while the Dow Jones gained just 20.5% during that same span.

What Else is in the News?

🔔 GOLD BREAKS $2,900 AS SAFE HAVEN DEMAND SURGES 
Trade war fears pushed gold to a historic $2,903.21 this week, marking a 2.2% gain. Prices are already up nearly 11% year to date, after a staggering 27% gain in 2024. 

🚚 MASSIVE PHYSICAL GOLD DEMAND HITS COMEX
The CME Comex is witnessing an extraordinary phenomenon as January gold deliveries reach $5.2 billion – a volume typically seen only in major delivery months. This unexpected surge suggests investors are increasingly choosing physical metal over paper contracts. 

⚠️ TRADE WAR ESCALATES WITH NEW METAL TARIFFS
Trump has ordered sweeping 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, targeting even close U.S. allies like Canada and Mexico. The EU has promised firm retaliation, warning of an expanding trade conflict that could drive up costs across industries. 

🌎 CHINA OPENS GOLD FLOODGATES
In a historic policy shift, China is allowing major insurers to invest up to 1% of their assets in gold – potentially unleashing $27.4 billion into the market. This groundbreaking move comes as gold prices surge past $2,900, driven by Fed rate expectations and global uncertainty.

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.
