    Gold Holds Above $5,000 While Silver Inventories Shrink in China and COMEX and Debasement Fears Grow

    Precious metals markets showed resilience this week, with gold holding near $5,000 per oz and silver closing at $77.37 per oz despite a sharp, headline-driven flash crash selloff sparked by a now-denied report about Russia rejoining the U.S. dollar system. The brief volatility underscored how sensitive markets remain to geopolitical narratives, but physical demand trends suggest underlying strength. Second, tightening physical silver supply continues to stand out globally, with Chinese exchange silver bar inventories falling toward 25 million ounces and COMEX registered inventory down roughly 54% since India’s surge in imports last fall. Strong buying from Turkey, India, and robust sales at the Perth Mint reinforce the idea that retail and institutional investors alike are rotating more aggressively into silver. Finally, the broader macro backdrop remains firmly supportive of bullion, as U.S. deficits approach $3 trillion annually and total federal debt nears $40 trillion. With stock-to-gold ratios breaking down and fiscal discipline appearing unlikely in the near term, the long-term debasement narrative continues to drive strategic allocations toward gold and other precious metals. Listen this week’s podcast with an open mind — beyond the flash crash headlines and the political theater of ongoing congressional hearings, the real story unfolding in gold and silver may be far more significant than most investors realize.

    Silver’s Historic January Rally Ended by the Biggest Intraday Price Drop

    January 2026 will be remembered as a shock month for precious metals, delivering silver’s best performance in decades and volatility that caught even veteran market watchers off guard.

    Silver Market Tightens as Record FUN Coin Show Demand Meets China and East Asia’s Growing Appetite

    Silver Market Tightens: Record U.S. FUN Coin Show Crowds Meet East Asian Physical Silver Demand  From record crowds at the FUN Coin Show to rising demand across China and Asia, silver markets are tightening as retail and industrial buyers compete. Silver had a busy week — and the signals are getting harder to ignore. From record-breaking crowds at the FUN Coin Show in Florida to silver bullion selling out in minutes across Japan and months-long waitlists in Singapore, physical demand is tightening worldwide. At the same time, China’s growing grip on global silver refining and new export controls are quietly reshaping supply chains that industries can’t function without. Premiums in Asia and shrinking inventories in the West suggest this isn’t just a paper-market move, but a real-world squeeze forming across hemispheres. Listen to hear how these forces are converging — and why silver’s role as a strategic metal may be entering a new chapter.

    Last Week in 2025, Silver’s Wild Ride Caught the Market Off Guard

    Last week in 2025, silver surged to nearly $84 an ounce before swinging wildly all week and closing above $72, a high volatility stretch that shook the market. From a blistering Asian-market surge to a brutal midweek sell-off, here’s what really drove silver’s dramatic price action and why it matters now. This past week in silver was anything but boring, and it all started with a bang. The spot silver price ripped higher in Asian trading, surging nearly $84 an ounce to a new nominal high before most investors had their morning coffee. What followed was a violent, whipsaw sell off, with sharp up and down moves that shook out anyone unprepared for real volatility. By the end of the week, silver settled at $72.86 an ounce, but the story behind those moves matters far more than the closing price. If you want to understand what really happened, why it matters, and what it could signal next, this is a week you do not want to miss.
