Many people think the Hunt Brothers were responsible for manipulating gold. But the truth is, they were framed......
There are two primary ways to invest in precious metals: physical metals and “futures”. The former comes in many forms itself, from allocated storage or ETFs to simply stocking away some metals in a safe at home....

In a free-market economy, virtually any tangible good can be sold to someone, somewhere. When you’re a seller, your primary concern will likely be receiving what you consider to be “fair value.” Is that something you can be reasonably sure of getting, or might you wind up disappointed? Liquidity refers to how easily you will be able to sell an asset at a widely recognized fair price on the open market. Let’s take a closer look. [ View the Current Gold Price ] Liquid and Illiquid Investments Gold and silver bullion are highly liquid assets. There is a universally recognized...

Gold has been a safe haven for literally thousands of years. But how effective is it as a “hedge”? A hedge is an asset that tends to rise when others fall. For example, an investor holding common stocks might find it advantageous to hold some gold too, since it has historically been strong during the worst stock market crashes. But in the big picture, does it really pay to always have some gold in one’s portfolio? History provides some clear answers. We analyzed several historical scenarios to see how a theoretical portfolio performed with various amounts of gold (including zero)....

The spot price of gold is based on the price of one troy ounce of gold on international exchanges. Gold spot prices refer to the “bid” price you see listed—which is the price most recently quoted in the market that buyers are willing to purchase at. This is usually lower than the “ask” price sellers are currently seeking. The spot price is based on trading activity in the futures markets.

Can’t decide if you should buy gold now or wait? We looked at the historical data to see if we could identify the best time of the year to buy. Is there a best time of year to buy gold? To fully answer that, let’s start at the beginning. Why Buy Gold? We don’t just buy gold in isolation. We buy gold as part of a portfolio – part of a broader strategy, and we choose our allocation to gold relative to our allocation to other assets. One of the best frameworks for choosing these allocations is through the lens...

Whether you are looking to sell your gold or silver for the best price, or just value it for insurance purposes, you can easily get an accurate estimate of how much you should reasonably be able to expect for it. Gold and silver are constantly priced on the open market according to the forces of supply and demand, setting what it costs to buy or what you can expect to receive for selling a pure troy ounce (or gram, depending on your market) of metal, and thus anything derived from it… much the same way changes in the global market...

There are two primary ways to invest in precious metals: buying physical metals and via futures contracts. Futures markets are electronic trading markets where buyers and sellers trade contracts based on the ability to take delivery of a certain amount of gold at a certain price on a certain future date Though they technically involve the eventual delivery of large amounts of physical gold, the vast majority of trading in futures markets is done as short-term speculation and very few traders ever receive (or want to receive) physical gold, as they’re bought and sold well ahead of the dates such...

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.
