December Newsletter 2025

Regardless of all the craziness in the world, this is the time of year that everyone tends to step back and focus on family, friends, and faith. Christmas has traditionally been a time when differences get put aside and civility rules. It is our genuine hope that you and your families will be able to rest in the peace and love that the Holiday season brings.

With that said, the world marches on. The geopolitical and economic transitions we are experiencing don’t take time off. The world is a complex place. The issues driving us into the future are getting more complex by the week. That reality is reflected in the gold and silver markets. What a couple of months it’s been! As always, we’re here to do our part to provide some insight on where it’s been and where it may be going. In the midst of it all…

Have a wonderful Christmas,

Gold and Silver

What Do the Charts Say?

For the last two years, we’ve watched gold relentlessly march to all-time highs. Those buying and holding silver wondered if they’d invested in the wrong metal. Now, the story has decidedly shifted. Silver has done what we said it would do. At some point, it would stop sleeping and take on a life of its own. While gold “marched” to all-time highs, silver has exploded. In fact, it is presently setting new highs each week. Some of this has to do with the gold-silver ratio being out of balance for some time. However, that is a small part of the story. Silver supplies are very tight, and the location of physical silver stockpiles has been out of balance globally. Add to that the realization that AI is advancing more rapidly than first forecast, and that computing demand to support it will consume a LOT of silver, and you can understand why the chart looks like it does.

So, what does the chart say? When a chart breaks out like this to new all-time highs, there isn’t much in terms of existing long-term patterns and resistance points that you can rely on.  Thus, as we examine the five-year chart, we are now looking for trendlines and areas of support when the price eventually pulls back. At the moment, there are three trend lines that have emerged. With the market dynamics being as they are, it’s unlikely the lower trend line will be relevant for some time, if ever. The top trendline is unsustainable over any length of time. Thus, the middle trend-line is what we see as most likely to be in play for the next few months at least. The congestion level in the previous all-time high around $50 per ounce should hold as support in any pullback in the next few months. Time will tell. One thing that seems evident is that the white metal will not be looked at the same way again.

Now, let’s turn to the gold chart. It has been quietly putting in a wedge pattern. This could be an extended pattern, and if it should break downward upon exiting it, we would expect support to be at the second trend line to begin. Very strong long-term support lies in that $3,400 range. Should gold reach here again, it would likely be a very good entry point for long-term investors.

Silver Hits Record High with 100% Price Increase This Year, Far Outpacing Gold

Silver’s rally has been driven by limited supply and rising investor demand. The cost to lease silver—the preferred way to acquire the metal for industrial uses—rose to its highest since 2002 this year, indicating an extraordinary shortage, according to a recent Deutsche Bank report. The firm’s analysts predict that the supply of silver available for industrial use is currently its tightest on record.

Silver Hits $60 For The First Time—Here’s Why Prices Are Outpacing Gold

Silver was added to the U.S. Geological Survey’s list of critical minerals in November, indicating the metal is “vital” to the U.S. economy and faces potential risks from disrupted supply chains, reportedly signaling to investors that silver may face tariffs in the U.S. amid dwindling global inventories.
