Hello, Peak Prosperity subscribers.
It’s Tuesday, April 1st, 2025, as I sit down to write this and, no, this isn’t an April Fool’s joke.
What I’ve got today isn’t quite an official alert, but it’s close. Let’s call it an advisory, a heads-up about something massive that’s just happened in the gold market—and likely silver’s not far behind. I’ve been on the phone for hours trying to piece this together, and I want to share what I’ve found with you. The story is fluid, and could change later today, but for now it’s mind-bending.
This could easily tip into alert territory for me. An alert, as you know, is something that makes me personally take action. Now, I’ve been irresponsibly long on gold and silver for a while—my bias is no secret—but I can’t tell you whether to buy, sell, or hold. That’s not my place. What I can do is lay out the data that’s pushing me to double down even harder on my position. Buckle up, because this is a wild one.
I’ve been tracking gold and silver for years—decades, even—and the murkiness around these markets has always been maddening. It’s easier to dig up blueprints for a nuclear bomb online than to figure out how much gold is actually sitting in London’s vaults, or who’s leased what, or who owns which bar.
