Silver just shattered $60 an ounce for the first time ever. Up 108 percent this year.
That is six times the S&P 500 during one of the strongest equity bull runs on record.
In my interview, David Morgan @silverguru22 said the market is signaling that we are entering the final phase.
Silver and gold are already telling you what comes next.@MilesFranklinCo

A major structural crack is forming in the U.S. economy and almost no one is paying attention.
While Wall Street chases AI stocks, Bond King @TruthGundlach is warning that private credit is the next subprime.
@ButlerGoldRevo calls it “the snake in the credit grass… hidden until you step on a land mine.”
- A $3 trillion unregulated shadow market
- Potential cascade steeper than 2008
And if it unravels? “The whole economy could collapse into a severe recession,” Butler tells @MichelleMakori in this episode of The Real Story.

When the next crisis hits (whether it’s private credit, the AI bubble, or a black swan no one sees), the Fed only has one playbook: print more dollars and debase the currency.
And according to @ButlerGoldRevo, we’re approaching an unstable equilibrium in the global monetary system… the kind that doesn’t break slowly. “Think about a sand pile collapsing. Think about an avalanche,” Butler tells @MichelleMakori.
When that tipping point hits, you’re either already hedged or you’re not.
Butler’s warning is blunt:
- Investors need 2-3 years of “outside-the-system” protection
- Physical allocated gold
- Gold vs gold-substitutes will be exposed in a dollar crisis

Silver just exploded to a fresh record above $54.76 an ounce after blowing through its October peak. The squeeze is nowhere near finished.

London inventories remain thin. Shanghai warehouse stocks have fallen to their lowest level since 2015. COMEX has already seen 75 million ounces pulled from vaults since early October. Borrowing rates for physical silver are still elevated. Every major hub is signaling the same problem: supply is under acute pressure.

And there is a new dimension now driving the market. The United States Geological Survey added silver to the official critical minerals list this month. That designation means the metal is now recognized as strategically important for national security, energy infrastructure, and advanced manufacturing. It also tells the market that Washington is preparing to pay closer attention to where silver comes from and where it goes.

Once a mineral reaches that status, governments usually start evaluating tariffs, export restrictions, and stockpile strategies. Traders know this. The possibility of new US policy is already making some hesitate before shipping metal out of the country.

Supply chains. Inventories. Policy. Market psychology- The entire landscape around silver is tightening…

I generally avoid the performative ritual of recommendations and the shallow engagement bait that dominates this platform, especially from those whose only currency is clickbait rather than insight. But I’ll make an exception in this case. Consider this compulsory viewing for anyone willing to learn from history… a rare instance of true financial edification amid the usual recycled noise.

What’s driving this volatility in gold and silver markets?
“This wasn’t normal market behavior. It was a drive-by shooting to create a perception of reality – pure price misdirection,” says @ASchectman.
@MichelleMakori asks: Who would be coordinating this?

What’s really driving gold & silver volatility? It’s a classic "price misdirection," @ASchectman tells @MichelleMakori.

At what level should the price of silver be right now?
Silver broke nominal record highs but adjusted for inflation, its real high is closer to $200/oz.
What’s the “fair” price for silver in today’s market?

“China has been understating its gold reserves by possibly a factor of 10. I believe this is the biggest story in world finance. The West is either asleep at the wheel or ignoring it,” says @DominicFrisby.

Silver squeeze. London cracking. China rising.
The LBMA -London’s bullion market is under real stress just as China’s Shanghai Gold Exchange steps up to challenge it.
Silver inventories in London are plunging, banks are flying in physical bars, and confidence in the LBMA, the heart of the Western metals system, is being tested.
At the same time, China is positioning itself as the new global custodian for gold and silver, offering yuan-based settlement , vaulting to central banks and allied nations and developing a parallel financial architecture outside the Western system.

Coincidence or strategy?

BREAKING: Gold officially becomes the first asset in history to hit $30 TRILLION in market cap.

It’s an all-out global rush into gold.
Gold just hit $4,380 in Asian markets .
Gold is up nearly 10% in less than a week and could break $4,400 tonight.

This is the world voting against fiat in real time.Something big is about to break…..

[Lawrence Lepard, "fix the money, fix the world" @LawrenceLepard]

Err, maybe this "paper silver" thing is an issue. As highlighted by Andy Schectman @ASchectman and pointed out by @QTRResearch

“In London they have a 140 million ounce float, yet they’re trading 600 million ounces a day… There’s over two billion ounces in paper claims out there on a float of 140 million.”

7% coverage. what could go wrong? music stops, you got a chair?

“I’ve never seen anything like this.” – @ASchectman
Silver has shattered records, surging to heights unseen in 45 years. A $3 spread between spot & futures. Huge backwardation.

Gold has exploded past $4,200 an ounce, another all time high.

Jamie Dimon CEO of JP Morgan says it could “easily go to $5,000 or even $10,000 in environments like this”.

Citadel’s Ken Griffin warns investors now see gold as safer than the U.S. dollar, calling that shift “really concerning.”

Ray Dalio @RayDalio put it bluntly:
“If you don’t own gold, you know neither history nor economics.”

Confidence in fiat is cracking, and the monetary reset is happening in real time.

We’ve long been covering this trend on Miles Franklin Media @MilesFranklinCo and The Real Story.

Silver’s rally is so extraordinary we had to interrupt Andy Schechtman’s @ASchectman vacation in Aruba to get his take.

In this special episode of The Real Story, Andy breaks down what’s really happening behind silver’s explosive move up over 78% YTD, the delivery risks, the paper vs. physical tension, and what the mainstream is not talking about as silver hits new record highs 
He also shares where he believes silver prices could go next… and why this may be the start of something much bigger.

The monetary reset’s first step is less than 10 months away. Trump’s former economic advisor @judyshel tells @MichelleMakori the plan to re-define the U.S. dollar and gold could launch on July 4, 2026 – America’s 250th Independence Day.
