Irrational Allocation and Gold
SchiffGold | 29 Sep, 2026
Americans own far less gold than they should. Less than .5% of American consumer portfolios are gold. Although gold provides countercyclical safety to the market and has grown consistently in relation to the dollar and performed not dramatically differently from the S&P over the last 25 years, Americans still only allocate a tiny portion of […]

Peter Schiff: Wishful Thinking Won’t Save This Market
SchiffGold | 29 Sep, 2026
In Sunday’s episode of the Peter Schiff Show, Peter tackles the disconnect between Wall Street optimism and economic reality. He walks through the dangerous complacency around rising bond yields, warns of a historic breakdown in market breadth, and reiterates his long-standing case for gold as the ultimate safe haven. He also touches on the psychology […]

Entrepreneurship as the Pursuit of Beauty
SchiffGold | 29 Sep, 2026
Entrepreneurship is at its core nothing more than the pursuit of beauty. Although an entrepreneur shares many activities with an employee, the nature of the activity is oriented towards beauty rather than anything else. This is not merely a philosophical preference, but rather the nature of entrepreneurship itself. Beauty is, while not necessarily definable, recognizable […]

Distributism is Built for Failure
SchiffGold | 29 Sep, 2026
Distributism is a recently resurgent form of social and political thought that attempts to create a free society ordered in a specific way through state intervention. This sounds like a paradox, because it is one. Distributists do not like to believe that they are proponents of larger forms of government, however their policies almost inevitably […]

CFTC CoTs: Managed Money No Longer Driving Price Moves
SchiffGold | 29 Sep, 2026
Please note: the CoTs report was published 09/25/2026 for the period ending 09/22/2026. “Managed Money” and “Hedge Funds” are used interchangeably. The Commitment of Traders report is a weekly publication that shows the breakdown of ownership in the Futures market. For every contract, there is a long and a short, so the net positioning will […]

Schiff on World Affairs in Context: America’s Debt Bomb is Ticking
SchiffGold | 28 Sep, 2026
Last week, Peter joined host Lena Petrova on World Affairs in Context to walk through the mounting dangers facing the US economy. He lays out how the national debt, the Federal Reserve’s inflationary tools, and shortsighted political decisions are converging to set up a crisis far worse than anything Americans have experienced in modern times.

Schiff on Metals and Miners: The Fed Can’t Fix the Yield Problem
SchiffGold | 28 Sep, 2026
Last week, Peter joined Gary on the Metals and Miners podcast to explain why confidence in the US Treasury market is eroding and why the Federal Reserve’s response will only make matters worse. He walks through the mechanics of Fed intervention, the coming pressure on the dollar, and why gold remains the standout asset in […]

Gold & Silver Morning Update 1/5/2026 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 05 Jan, 2026
A very strong start to the week for gold, as you might expect, following the US strike on Venezuela / capture of President Maduro on Sunday. What’s perhaps a little more surprising is the blistering outperformance of copper, silver, platinum, palladium…but to be fair global stock and oil markets aren’t bothered at all, and so […]

Gold & Silver Afternoon Update 12/30/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 30 Dec, 2025
A very poor rest of the day for gold. It got whacked back below the October high by algos at the S&P cash open, couldn’t benefit at all from silver’s +4% rally from 10amET into the COMEX close, and overreacted to the downside with a modest US yield uptick following a mixed set of FOMC […]

Gold & Silver Morning Update 12/30/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 30 Dec, 2025
More strength than I expected for the precious metals overnight; thanks to more demand at the China open, but perhaps more importantly due to the Chinese government announcing subsidies for electronic vehicles, phones, tablets, smartwatches and smart glasses…all of which consume silver. Past rounds of similar subsidies have led to immediate sales surges, and so we’re […]

Gold & Silver Afternoon Update 12/29/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 29 Dec, 2025
An unsurprisingly challenging rest of the day for the precious metals. We saw modest bounces with the stock market since the COMEX closes, but neither metal came anywhere close to re-attacking its overnight range. This hints that there’s a lot of trapped bulls out there who fell for this bogus “bank failure / forced silver […]

Gold & Silver Morning Update 12/29/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 29 Dec, 2025
Some absolutely wild post-Christmas trading activity for the precious metals. First, silver and platinum’s incredible +10% rallies on Friday, fueled by an odd rehashing of the China silver export restriction story from October and rumors that a bullion bank was blown out of its silver short position; and now scary -16% & -18% crashes off […]

Gold & Silver Morning Update 12/24/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 24 Dec, 2025
Indeed an upside breakout attempt for gold above yesterday’s highs in early Asian trade last night, but this technical achievement was ruined by an obnoxious 4k contract, -1%, bashing off session highs in the final five minutes of the 9pmET hour. There wasn’t a headline catalyst or abrupt negative shift in the broader risk mood. […]

Gold & Silver Afternoon Update 12/23/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 23 Dec, 2025
An impressive rebound for gold & silver to round out this Tuesday, thanks in large part to a calming down in bond markets / strong stock market rally following the much weaker-than-expected Present Situation reading in the December US Consumer Confidence report. Silver and PGM markets naturally outperformed amid the risk-on environment, with platinum astonishingly […]

Gold & Silver Afternoon Update 12/23/2025 | The Bregar Minute
Erik Bregar | 23 Dec, 2025
More strength for the precious metals as expected overnight, with Asian demand once again leading the way. Europe was hesitant to chase gold higher though, despite a pronounced decline for US yields and the USD…and this turned out to be the correct move in retrospect because yields and dollar are now shooting higher following the […]
