Lobo Tiggre, founder of The Independent Speculator, argues that geopolitical spikes in gold are usually short lived and that investors should focus on the deeper structural trend rather than headlines. He believes gold’s strength is driven less by Middle East tensions and more by long term monetary debasement and sustained central bank buying. While bullish long term, he expects a period of correction and consolidation after gold’s...

Clem Chambers explains how he successfully exited silver near its peak after recognizing a classic parabolic “up like a rocket, down like a rock” pattern. He describes scaling out between roughly $90 and $110 as price approached the psychologically powerful $100 level, warning that vertical moves fueled by crowd euphoria almost always retrace. Chambers emphasizes that extreme volatility signals a late stage blow off, and that equil...

Doomberg explains why despite alarming headlines surrounding Iran and Donald Trump, key market indicators are not signaling imminent war. The conversation breaks down the violent silver selloff while emphasizing gold’s continued role as a neutral monetary reserve asset rather than an industrial commodity. Doomberg also explores the growing likelihood of gold repricing or monetization and why higher gold prices benefit nation states...

Andy Schectman CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals explains why gold revaluation by governments is increasingly likely rather than speculative. He argues that treasury backed stablecoins and legislation such as the GENIUS Act create a powerful incentive for higher gold prices as interest flows are redirected into hard assets. Schectman notes that gold already sits on central bank balance sheets in revaluation accounts making an o...

Elijah K. Johnson of Liberty and Finance speaks with Rafi Farber of The End Game Investor about why the current monetary easing cycle may be the final one. Rafi explains how rising long term interest rates during a rate cutting cycle signal that central banks are losing control of the system. He outlines why this shift could turn credit inflation into outright currency debasement, driving gold higher and silver even faster. The dis...

Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin argues that recent volatility in gold and silver reflects systemic stress rather than weakening fundamentals. He explains that extreme moves are being driven by margin hikes, algorithmic trading, and paper market leverage while physical demand remains strong, particularly outside the West. Schectman highlights unusually large open interest ahead of first notice day on the COMEX silver contract, warn...

Shawn Khunkhun explains how Dolly Varden Silver has progressed from a high grade silver explorer into a more resilient enterprise by consolidating historic assets in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle and anchoring scale in a stable jurisdiction, then shows how the merger with Contango Ore reshapes the business model from one reliant on capital markets to one increasingly funded by operating cash flow, akin to moving from architect...

Elijah K. Johnson speaks with Craig Hemke of TF Metals Report about the sudden, sharp drop in silver prices and the broader volatility in precious metals markets. Hemke argues that the dramatic selloff was likely driven by futures market activity and algorithmic trading rather than any single news event, dismissing speculation that Russia’s comments about dollar settlement were the primary cause. He emphasizes that despite short-te...

Peter Krauth argues that despite silver’s massive run from under $20 to over $100 and now into the $80 range, the fundamental case for higher prices remains intact. He attributes the rally to Fed rate cuts amid persistent inflation, ballooning U.S. debt, and structural monetary pressures that continue to favor precious metals. Krauth maintains that silver is still relatively cheap when viewed through metrics like the gold silver ra...

Michael Pento argues that the financial system is extremely fragile due to simultaneous bubbles in credit, real estate, and equities, combined with severely depleted bank reserves and heavy Federal Reserve intervention. He warns that without continued monetization and liquidity injections, asset markets could fracture, potentially triggering a severe recession that would be difficult to contain given persistent inflation and rising...

John Rubino discusses silver as a uniquely powerful asset driven by both monetary demand from currency debasement and rising industrial demand that consistently exceeds global mine supply. He explains that short term volatility including price drops tied to paper market manipulation and the temporary shutdown of Chinese physical markets does not undermine the strong long term fundamentals. Governments and major corporations are now...

Andy Schectman discusses extreme recent volatility in gold and silver markets and arguing it was driven by margin hikes and forced liquidation rather than a change in fundamentals. He explains that rising margin requirements flushed out leveraged speculators while allowing large institutions to acquire physical metal, as seen in massive silver inflows into ETFs immediately after the price smash. Schectman emphasizes tight physical ...

Greg Weldon of the Global Macro Strategy Report breaks down the latest moves in gold, silver, and the stock market. Weldon explains why silver remains a structurally tight and squeezable market, outlines key buy zones for precious metals, and discusses why a return to much lower silver prices is unlikely. He also warns of rising risks in equities as consumer stress builds, AI driven capital spending accelerates, and market leadersh...

Silver prices just suffered one of the most violent selloffs in history, yet fundamentals point to a deepening global physical shortage. Precious metals analyst and mining executive David Jensen (https://substack.com/@jensendavid) explains how COMEX circuit breakers, velocity logic, and high frequency trading may be allowing massive price suppression without triggering safeguards. We discuss the widening disconnect between paper si...

In this interview, Robert Kientz of The Freedom Report joins Elijah Johnson to break down the historic collapse and rebound in silver and gold prices. Kientz explains why a 30%+ intraday move in silver points to futures market positioning, options expiration, and potential failures of CME circuit breakers rather than fundamentals. The discussion covers paper versus physical metals, bank short positions, industrial demand, and why v...

Todd “Bubba” Horwitz breaks down the extreme volatility shaking the precious metals markets as silver surges, crashes, and attempts to rebuild a new base. He explains why the sharp sell off was predictable after a parabolic move and why consolidation is a healthy step before higher prices. Bubba lays out his bullish long term case for silver and gold, driven by debt, inflation, central bank behavior, and systemic risk, while warnin...

Chris Vermeulen breaks down the violent silver selloff after a parabolic run to the 120 area, explaining how Fibonacci targets and herd psychology signaled exhaustion. He details why the thirty plus percent plunge was driven by leverage and forced liquidation rather than a true trend reversal. Vermeulen compares the current metals cycle to 2007 and 2008, arguing that precious metals may still base or even rise again before a broade...
