  • Is the Gold: Oil Relationship An Old Wives Tale?

    There are certainly specific times when some could make an argument that gold and oil don’t travel in the same general direction, but most of those episodes can be attributed directly to specific issues, whether governmental, environmental, or production forces, affecting one or the other commodity completely independent of the other.

  • Why You Can’t Compare Gold To Bitcoin

    In March 2017, for the first time ever, one Bitcoin traded for the same price as one ounce of gold. This fueled a surge in the bitcoin-vs.-gold conversation—a common, logical, but ultimately misplaced comparison.

    Gold prices move for many different reasons: the economy, the mood of investors, the health of central banks and central governments, among others.

  • What Would A Modern Gold Standard Look Like?

    The United States of America began its country ship on a bimetallic standard, which meant that economic transactions occurred through gold and silver purchases (or bank notes drawn against gold and silver deposits).

  • Gold Investing During Trump’s Troubled Administration

    Investment bank Goldman Sachs made waves in late 2016 when lead equity strategist Peter Oppenheimer advised investors to look at “gold as a hedge” against then president-elect Donald Trump’s economic agenda.

  • What Is The Current Cost To Produce An Ounce Of Silver Today?

    Entering the new year, the world’s top silver companies averaged $10.56 in production costs per ounce of silver. But that could change.

    The first thing to realize about buying gold is that there is practically never a “bad time to buy.” The reason it’s easy to say that with confidence is that gold is a “long term” investment. Even people who bought gold at its peak price in 2011 (over $1,900 per ounce) could potentially see profit

  • Convenience Is America’s Heroine

    I say that because convenience in America is no less addictive and potentially no less deadly than heroine. Once exposed to convenience, Americans can’t do without it and will “chase the dragon” forever to keep it.
