President-elect Donald Trump has issued a stark ultimatum to the European Union: increase purchases of American oil and gas or face tariffs. Trump’s demand aims to address the trade deficit between the US and EU, which reached $131.3 billion in 2022. While the EU has already significantly increased its imports of US hydrocarbons in recent years, ramping up purchases to the level Trump suggests faces numerous practical constraints.

The Fed held rates for the fifth straight meeting. PCE cooled. Gold crossed $4,100. Silver still can’t break $60. Here are five signals defining the next six weeks before Jackson Hole.
Gold has fallen roughly 27% from its January 2026 high — almost identical to its drawdown in 2008 and during COVID. Both of those corrections resolved to significant new highs. Jeff Clark breaks down what history says comes next, why central bank buying hasn’t slowed, and the third historical parallel that makes this moment even more precise than either prior comparison.
Brent crude surged 7.9% on July 29 after Iran fired missiles at US forces. Gold rose anyway. Here is why the standard suppression chain broke — and what the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve’s 43-year low means for every future oil shock.
The Federal Reserve voted 9-3 to hold rates on July 29 — the most divided FOMC decision since September 2016. Three regional bank presidents dissented in favor of an immediate hike. Gold is up more than $40. Here is exactly why the vote count matters more than the headline decision, and what it means for gold and silver heading into September.
A Class 3 vault must withstand more than two continuous hours of sustained attack by professional burglars using power tools and cutting torches. It is the highest commercial vault rating under UL Standard 608 — and a mandatory condition of NYMEX/COMEX licensure, not a marketing claim. Here is exactly what that standard requires, and what it means for the gold you store.

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.
