Spot Price Update: Silver has soared past $35 per ounce —the highest level since 2012. This marks a gain of over 20% for the year. Analysts suggest that continued strong demand could push silver prices to $40–$50 per ounce in the medium to long term.
Gold prices have shown volatility in recent weeks but are exhibiting signs of an upward trend. Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan have both forecasted that gold will reach $4,000 per ounce in 2026.

The Rent is Due Every Day: At the Reagan National Economic Forum, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon issued one of the most direct fiscal warnings we’ve heard from a major financial executive in recent years. Dimon declared that “tectonic plates are shifting”—and America’s superpower status is slipping fast.
In a sobering prediction, he cautioned that a “crack in the bond market” is inevitable. Once considered the safest assets in the world, U.S. Treasuries are being shunned by investors.
Without consistent demand, yields will soar, potentially triggering a full-blown fiscal crisis and inflationary spiral.
Echoing Reagan’s early warnings from when debt-to-GDP was just 35% (versus today’s 122%), Dimon closed by comparing Washington’s arrogance to fallen giants like Kmart and Blackberry: institutions that assumed their success would last forever. He made clear that America still has time to change course. But the clock is ticking, and hope alone is not a strategy.
Sunshine State Goes Sovereign: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed HB 999 into law—officially recognizing gold and silver coins as legal tender in the Sunshine State starting July 1, 2026.
The legislation allows Floridians to use gold and silver for certain transactions, including paying debts, and exempts these metals from state sales tax. That’s a big shift toward real monetary alternatives in everyday commerce.
Calling it a step toward financial sovereignty, DeSantis stated that “these precious metals can start functioning like real currency again.” In a time of rising inflation and fiat uncertainty, Florida’s move signals a bold return to tangible value—and a quiet warning to the dollar’s dominance.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
