Gold and silver are surging to historic new highs — and this time, the move is being driven by fundamentals that continue to strengthen.
In this episode of The Secret War on Cash, hosts Dean Heskin and Chris Agelastos break down why gold has surged to record levels near $4,400 and why silver has exploded past $70, delivering some of the strongest performance of any asset class this year.
📈 Why Precious Metals Are Outperforming
- Central banks and institutions are aggressively accumulating physical gold
- Silver faces a multi-year supply deficit while industrial demand accelerates
- Inflation continues to erode purchasing power across food, energy, and everyday essentials
- Investors are increasingly seeking true diversification and protection
🌍 BRICS & De-Dollarization
The BRICS alliance continues its deliberate shift away from the U.S. dollar, introducing trade systems and currencies backed in part by gold. While the U.S. expands debt and money supply, other nations are strengthening their currencies with tangible reserves, putting long-term pressure on the dollar.
🛡️ Why Physical Metals Matter
Dean explains why physical gold and silver, unlike paper substitutes, are unencumbered assets with no counterparty risk — functioning not just as investments, but as financial insurance. The same factors that drove metals higher over the past year remain firmly in place today.
As global uncertainty grows, gold and silver are once again proving why they’ve protected wealth for thousands of years.
