Gold and Silver in 2024 – Who Got It Right?
Last night, I attended the Annual LBMA Dinner in London, joined by representatives from central banks, refineries, depositories, and international bullion dealers such as GoldCore. This event is always insightful, but this year’s discussions were particularly compelling given the significant price movements over the past 12 months. As expected, conversations turned to the role of […]
Why Gold Should Get Your Vote
I write to you less than 24 hours before Ireland heads to the polls to decide who will lead the country, as the term of the current coalition government—comprising Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil, and the Green Party—comes to an end. At present, the economy—and by extension, the incumbent government—is feeling buoyant thanks to robust corporate […]
Jim Rickards: Is AI in Finance Leading Us To Crisis?
What will AI do to life as we know it? This is the question dominating so many platforms at the moment. From company boardrooms to government debates, the power of AI is something that is scaring and impressing in equal measure. So it was with interest when I spoke to James Rickards about his new book, […]
Chris Vermeulen: Is The Gold Rally Over?
What has President Trump’s victory done to gold and silver? Well, gold and silver both took a pretty big hit yesterday but this is a ‘news driven move’ according to my guest this week on GoldCore TV. Chris Vermuelen joins us this week, and what a great time to have him on. I asked him if the US […]
Budgets, Scams and Gold Investment
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 […]
I Would Rather Hold Gold, Not A Gold Backed Currency!
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 […]
Gold And Silver Are Breaking Records
What a week. At the time of writing gold is around $2,670 having pulled back slightly better than expected US consumer data. This morning December gold futures hit $2,708. And to think that just three weeks ago Goldman Sachs were saying we might see $2,700 gold next year. Silver continues to delight, reaching the highest price level […]
My $3,000 Gold Prediction Is Conservative!
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 […]
How Much Gold Is Enough Gold?
It’s been a busy week of data releases, particularly from the US. July’s US inflation figures were highly anticipated; the data gave a boost to expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut rates in September. Earlier today we also saw the release of better-than-expected jobs data after the number of Americans filing new claims for […]
