    Gold Breakout Was the Signal to Buy Again | Florian Grummes

    Florian Grummes says gold's break above 4,200 was the signal he had been waiting for, and he has moved from 50% invested to 80% invested on the back of it. The founder of Midas Touch Consulting tells Kitco News anchor Jeremy Szafron that the trigger was not the metal itself but the Federal Reserve's new facility accepting Japanese collateral, which he calls "back to money printing" and compares in direction to the swap lines used during the Credit Suisse rescue. He is buying juniors rather than producers, and he names two he owns. His screen is counterintuitive. He wants a stock that has already outperformed the metal, because that is the proof it will move when gold moves. He expects a wave of mining M&A over the next one to three years as producers redeploy the cash they are generating at these prices. On price he sees 4,500 gold this summer and 70 dollar silver, and he says plainly that he does not expect a new all-time high this year. For anyone sitting on a 30 to 60 percent drawdown in juniors, his advice is to average down. He also explains why he is watching Hong Kong and Shanghai more closely than Singapore, and what 25 years of watching the tape tells him about why the metals so often fade in the Western session and rally in Asia.

    Gold at $42.22 and "One of the Great Mysteries" | Phillip Magness

    Economic historian Phillip Magness tells Kitco News anchor Jeremy Szafron that Americans who surrendered gold in 1933 at $20.67 an ounce got none of the gain when Washington repriced it at $35 less than ten months later. "It's always the private sector that gets the bad end of it." America's 261.5 million ounces are still carried on the federal books at $42.22 an ounce, about $11 billion against more than $1 trillion at market. Economic historian Phillip Magness tells Kitco News anchor Jeremy Szafron that Americans who surrendered gold in 1933 at $20.67 an ounce got none of the gain when Washington repriced it at $35 less than ten months later. "It's always the private sector that gets the bad end of it." America's 261.5 million ounces are still carried on the federal books at $42.22 an ounce, about $11 billion against more than $1 trillion at market. Magness traces the line from the 1933 gold surrender and the Gold Reserve Act through Bretton Woods, the 1971 Nixon shock and the Smithsonian Agreement, to the accounting price still sitting on the federal books today. Two billion dollars of the Treasury's 1934 revaluation gain went into the Exchange Stabilization Fund, which the Treasury can still use in currency markets. Magness calls the $42.22 valuation "one of the great mysteries that comes out of the Nixon era." Also in the interview: whether anyone holding coins participates when a government reprices its gold, what would actually have to happen for a revaluation to become money the government could spend, why revaluation keeps returning whenever Washington wants financial room without raising taxes, how much public warning there was in 1933, and the single condition Magness says made it possible. Plus why Spain grew poorer despite receiving enormous quantities of New World bullion, and when America's gold was last independently audited.

    Bond Market Rejects The Fed: Why The Rules Just Changed For Gold

    The bond market just delivered a sharp rejection to the Federal Reserve’s latest rate decision, pushing 30-year Treasury yields to 19-year highs as inflation fears persist. Meanwhile, three top macro strategists—Gareth Soloway, Willem Middelkoop, and Mike McGlone—issue three completely conflicting calls on where gold, bonds, and energy go from here. In this episode of "This Week in Focus," Senior Anchor Jeremy Szafron breaks down the breakdown in traditional market correlations. From the World Gold Council's latest Q2 demand report showing central bank buying surging 62% year-over-year to Big Tech's massive earnings divergence and breaking developments in currency markets, we analyze what this means for your portfolio. #Gold #FederalReserve #Investing #MacroEconomy #KitcoNews --------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS --------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:00 - Cold Open: The Old Market Rules Stopped Working 01:10 - Fed Rate Hold & The 30-Year Treasury Yield Surge 03:30 - Gareth Soloway on Bond Market Signals 06:15 - Willem Middelkoop: The Quiet Monetary Reset & China's Gold 09:45 - Gareth Soloway: The $13,000 Gold Model Target 13:20 - Mike McGlone: Is Gold's Cycle High Already In? 16:50 - WGC Q2 Report: Central Banks Buy 289 Tonnes vs. ETF Outflows 20:15 - Credit Market Stress, KOSPI & Big Tech Earnings Split 23:40 - Soloway's S&P 500 Technical Level Tested 26:15 - Physical Gold & Silver Positioning Strategy 28:10 - Market Scoreboard & What to Watch Next Week --------------------------------------------------------------------- FEATURED GUESTS --------------------------------------------------------------------- • Gareth Soloway — Chief Market Strategist, Verified Investing: https://youtu.be/I5KLC0vceTQ • Willem Middelkoop — Founder, Commodity Discovery Fund & Author of "The Big Reset": https://youtu.be/7jkLVEICxg8 • Mike McGlone — Senior Macro Strategist, Bloomberg Intelligence: https://youtu.be/k4JMX9KL2nw --------------------------------------------------------------------- KEY TAKEAWAYS IN THIS EPISODE --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. THE FED & BONDS: The 30-year Treasury yield surged to nearly 5.24% after the Fed kept interest rates unchanged at 3.50%–3.75%, driven by three policy dissents and rising inflation concerns. 2. THE GOLD DEBATE: Soloway models a long-term $13,000 cycle peak by 2029–2031, Middelkoop argues the global monetary reset is already underway with massive undisclosed official purchases, and McGlone warns the cycle top may already be behind us. 3. WGC DEMAND DATA: Central bank gold buying hit 289 tonnes in Q2 2026 (+62% YoY), led by Poland (+51t) and China (+33t), even as ETF investors pulled metal out of funds. 4. MARKET DIVERGENCE: Tech stocks rebounded sharply following heavy mid-week selling, while crude oil pulled back despite ongoing Middle East supply disruptions. __________________________________________________________________ Like, share, and subscribe to Kitco News—and turn on alerts to stay current with expert interviews, market insights, and breaking news coverage.  FOLLOW US:   X: https://x.com/kitconewsnow   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitconews   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KitcoNews   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kitconews Listen to the PODCAST on 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1My4WgtF0ZhUnxkxDLoJof 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kitco-news/id1842889233 🎧 All podcast episodes available here → https://kitconews.buzzsprout.com Visit: https://Kitco.com/ for live gold, silver, and crypto prices, the latest mining news, and macroeconomic insights.   Live gold price and chart: https://www.kitco.com/charts/gold Live silver price and chart: https://www.kitco.com/charts/silver Live crypto market data: https://www.kitco.com/price/crypto Learn more about Kitco News: https://www.kitco.com/news/about/  For more information on advertising, sponsorship and marketing promotions – please visit our online media kit at: https://www.kitco.com/advertising   Disclaimer:   The videos are not intended to provide trading advice, and the views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of Kitco Metals Inc.

    Fed Cuts Are Coming Next and They Mean Recession | Mike McGlone

    Mike McGlone, senior commodity strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, tells Kitco News anchor Jeremy Szafron the Fed's next move is a series of 50 basis point cuts rather than hikes, and that it ends in a recession. He also says gold and silver have become sock puppets to the US stock market. The US struck Iran again overnight and crude fell anyway. According to McGlone, that is not a contradiction, it is the story, because pricing power in oil has shifted away from OPEC and toward the Western hemisphere. He expects crude to gravitate toward $70, says gold at $4,100 is nothing until it clears $4,500, and names the one commodity he is buying right now. Recorded July 30 2026 Follow Jeremy Szafron on X: @JeremySzafron (https://twitter.com/JeremySzafron)  Follow Kitco News on X: @KitcoNewsNOW (https://twitter.com/kitconewsnow)  Follow Mike McGlone on X: @mikemcglone11 (https://twitter.com/mikemcglone11) Chapters: 00:00 Markets Defy War Fears  01:18 Meet Mike McGlone  01:46 Fed Cuts Not Hikes  04:57 Stocks Drive Everything  07:56 Inflation Signal vs Noise  09:59 Oil Bear Case in War  14:04 Western Hemisphere Takes Lead  15:25 Gasoline and Distillate Clues  18:07 China Deflation Pressure  19:54 Treasuries vs Gold Safe Haven  23:21 Second Half Volatility Setup  24:13 Gold Versus Bonds 24:53 Extreme Stretch Hangover  25:51 Correlation Volatility Debate  27:00 Gold's False Rally Playbook  30:29 Natural Gas Mispricing  31:43 Soybeans Supply Reality  33:28 Gold In Other Currencies  35:29 Japan Yen And Treasuries  37:28 Normalization Versus Treasuries  39:16 Silver And Copper Watch  41:20 Metals Are Sock Puppets  41:50 Contrarian Mindset  43:48 Key Levels And Wrap Also in this interview, according to McGlone: US CPI can reach 0% and crude can fall toward $40, though he says that requires a 10% to 20% drop in the S&P 500 that stays down. Copper falls 20% to 30% if stocks drop 10%, with managed money net long 25% to 27% of open interest, roughly five times normal. January natural gas near four is mispriced and worth exploring purchases, while soybeans near twelve are probably going lower. Gold is at a four-decade high against Treasuries, not against the dollar, and he says $3,000 would be the ideal place to buy it. He calls this a trading year of a lifetime, maybe similar to 2008. #Gold #Recession #JeremySzafron __________________________________________________________________ Like, share, and subscribe to Kitco News—and turn on alerts to stay current with expert interviews, market insights, and breaking news coverage.  FOLLOW US:   X: https://x.com/kitconewsnow   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kitconews   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KitcoNews   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kitconews Listen to the PODCAST on 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1My4WgtF0ZhUnxkxDLoJof 🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/kitco-news/id1842889233 🎧 All podcast episodes available here → https://kitconews.buzzsprout.com Visit: https://Kitco.com/ for live gold, silver, and crypto prices, the latest mining news, and macroeconomic insights.   Live gold price and chart: https://www.kitco.com/charts/gold Live silver price and chart: https://www.kitco.com/charts/silver Live crypto market data: https://www.kitco.com/price/crypto Learn more about Kitco News: https://www.kitco.com/news/about/  For more information on advertising, sponsorship and marketing promotions – please visit our online media kit at: https://www.kitco.com/advertising   Disclaimer:   The videos are not intended to provide trading advice, and the views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of Kitco Metals Inc.

    S&P 500 Support Just Broke: Big Money Unwind Spreads | Gareth Soloway

    The stock market whiplashed after a hawkish 9-3 Federal Reserve hold, but the real story is the massive unwinding in the semiconductor sector. Recorded midday Pacific, July 29, during the post-Fed reversal. Markets sold off into the close, with the Nasdaq 100 ending in correction territory. South Korea's KOSPI has crashed 33% this month, and memory chip giants like SanDisk are down 57% in just 30 days. Is the AI CapEx bubble bursting? In this episode, Gareth Soloway, Chief Market Strategist at Verified Investing, breaks down exactly why the tech unwind is spreading and shares the exact trendline where he is contrarian-buying the chip crash. Gareth also maps out the S&P 500's critical "line in the sand," explains why the New York Fed is flashing a credit market warning, and details the structural global forces driving his long-term $13,000 gold target.

    The Gold Reset Already Happened and Almost Nobody Noticed | Willem Middelkoop

    Willem Middelkoop says the monetary reset isn't coming. It's already underway, quietly, in the accounting. He also argues China is now the dominant force in the gold market, buying on every dip while the West still trades paper. Kitco's Jeremy Szafron sits down with Willem Middelkoop, author of "The Big Reset" and founder of the Commodity Discovery Fund, for a wide-ranging hour on why both Washington and Beijing may want a cheaper gold price, the state gold buyers that don't show up in official numbers, gold overtaking US Treasuries as the world's top reserve asset, the move of price discovery to Shanghai, China's shift from paper to physical, silver's path to a possible $500, and where the gold miners go from here.

    Four Experts Split on Gold, United on One Warning | This Week 'In Focus'

    Gold spent the week whipsawing around $4,000, and four very different experts gave Kitco four very different reads on why, and what happens next. They don't agree on the path. They do agree it's about something bigger than gold. In this week's This Week in Focus, Kitco's Jeremy Szafron pulls the threads together: technical analyst Gary Wagner on the two levels that now define the range and why he walked back his $6,000 call; veteran trader Clem Chambers on why he thinks the bottom isn't in and why "gold is for war"; former BlackRock portfolio manager Ed Dowd on the road to $10,000 gold and how a private-credit crisis could reach ordinary pensions; and constitutional scholar William Watkins on the 1933 gold call-in, the "shell game" behind the dollar, and why sound money was meant to make war expensive.

    The Only Thing Backing the Dollar Now Is Force | William Watkins

    The U.S. national debt has reached nearly $40 trillion, and the interest alone now rivals the entire military budget. Constitutional scholar William Watkins argues the dollar today is backed by little more than the coercive power of the government, and that the drift from the founders' hard-money design is why the debt keeps compounding. Kitco's Jeremy Szafron talks with William J. Watkins, Jr. of the Independent Institute about how the spending guardrails came off (from the founders' "few and defined" powers to the New Deal-era Butler decision), why he calls the 1933 gold call-in unconstitutional, how Civil War greenbacks began the shift to fiat, what the arc from $35 gold in 1971 to $4,100 today says about the dollar, why he believes sound money was meant to make war expensive, and where the risk sits as foreign investors hold nearly a quarter of the debt.
