Strong Fundamentals and Technicals Send Gold and Silver to Record Highs
Friday Gold Wrap | SchiffGold | 17 Jan, 2026
Gold and silver just posted historic record highs, and Wall Street is still asleep. In this week’s Schiff Gold Friday Market Wrap, Peter Schiff breaks down the biggest one-day dollar rally in gold history, silver’s surge above $90 an ounce, and why recent volatility is consolidation at extreme highs — not a top.
Peter explains why:
- Gold and silver are flashing early warnings of a coming U.S. dollar and Treasury bond crisis
- Mining stocks remain dramatically undervalued despite exploding metal prices
- Inflation is accelerating again while the Fed talks about rate cuts
- Rising Japanese bond yields threaten global bond markets
- Trump-era policies are unintentionally pushing the world away from the dollar and into gold
- CPI headlines are misleading while producer inflation is surging
- This moment mirrors subprime in 2007 — an early signal before a much larger crisis
