Earlier today, both the ECB and Swiss National Bank reduced interest rates. Neither decision is surprising, given concerns about growth, the uncertainty surrounding Trump’s America First policies, and brewing political turmoil across Europe and its neighbors. How have gold and silver responded? At the time of writing, both have pulled back—largely due to a US […]
The week began with Goldman Sachs projecting $3,000 gold by 2025. This forecast aligns with predictions from several other analysts in recent months. Why is $3,000 gold on the horizon? Unfortunately, the factors that pushed gold to record highs in 2024 seem unlikely to subside in 2025 and, for many, may even worsen. This reminds […]
How much higher will gold go? Yesterday it was within striking distance of $,2800, and whilst it may have pulled back earlier on today on the back of some technical selling, we believe the next week could hold yet more new highs. The coming days will be pivotal for shaping the future of risk sentiment and consumer […]
Earlier today data on US benefit payments was released and whilst it was weaker than previously, gold did not appear to really respond. Gold appears to have settled itself into a new holding pattern at these elevated levels, so disinterested it appears to be in economic releases. However, we will see what happens tomorrow when Non-Farm Payrolls data […]
It has felt like we have been talking about the Federal Reserve rate cut for months and months. Finally we have something to say about it: The Fed decided to cut rates, and they cut rates by 50 basis points. Gold responded in true form and touched another record high.

His ‘conservative’ prediction that gold will reach $3,000 by the end of 2024 seems increasingly likely as the yellow metal continues to hold above $2,500. (If you missed it you can catch up here.) Last week’s speech by Federal Reserve […]
We write to you as we approach the end of another record-breaking week. This was the week, of course, when gold proved its mettle and broke through the $2,500 ceiling. The ceiling is both technical and psychological. Why did the price push through $2,500? According to both the LBMA and the World Gold Council it is […]
Last week Biden was asked “What do you want your legacy for Gen Z to be” His reply? “I cured the economy” Less than a week later trading screens around the world were blinking red, with numbers heading one way…south. Equities, bonds and currencies were hit, with only a few assets left untouched. It’s estimated $6.4 […]
Today we bring you Part Two of our interview with The Silver Guru, David Morgan. In the second-half of our conversation we discuss the performance of silver miners.
