Texas Antifa Cell Convicted On Terror Charges As Trump Targets Far-Left For years Democrats argued that "Antifa" is not a real organization; rather, they claim it is a set of ideals with no concrete membership.  This illusory definition of the movement is quite deliberate in that it is designed to protect Antifa members from being defined as terrorists or facing direct consequences for their actions.   Legal questions have been growing over the use of federal terrorism laws against leftist activists.  Democrats claim they're engaging in constitutionally protected civil […]

U.S. To Begin 86-Million-Barrel SPR Dump Next Week Via Exchange Program The speed of the energy shock rippling out from the U.S.-Iran conflict in the Middle East and the near-paralysis of the Strait of Hormuz forced the 32-member IEA last week to approve a 400-million-barrel release from Strategic Petroleum Reserves to help cushion the blow to the global economy.

The Most Expensive Science Lesson in European History Authored by James Hickman via SchiffSovereign.com, On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck off the coast of Japan and triggered a massive tsunami that slammed into the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. Three of the plant’s six reactors melted down, and it became the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl. On the other side of the world, German Chancellor Angela Merkel panicked. Her government had extended the operating lives of Germany’s 17 nuclear reactors just five months earlier. But, because of the […]

Media Says 'Gambling' Trump Got Lucky On The Economy Democrats have been predicting doom and gloom ever since Trump returned to office, yet the economic calamity they assured us would come has yet to materialize.

These kits, designed to stem severe bleeding from deep wounds, are pitched as a lifesaver in emergencies—yet their sudden necessity speaks volumes about the city’s descent into chaos under unchecked policies. The push comes from the London Youth […]

The AI Boom Is Creating A Global Memory Chip Shortage A global shortage of memory chips is emerging as demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure surges, according to a new report from Bloomberg. Large technology companies are locking in supply by signing long-term agreements and paying higher prices to guarantee access to chips years in advance.

War Abroad Should Not Mean Less Freedom At Home Authored by Mollie Engelhart via The Epoch Times, As an American, a mother, and a rancher, I have been reflecting on what it means when our country enters another war—and what history tells us often follows at home. There will be endless debate about who is right and who is wrong. Some will praise our leaders, others will criticize them, and neighbors will disagree about how we got here and how events will unfold in the future. Those conversations are natural in a free society. But there is another conversation that deserves […]

Today Nomi Prins, who has given keynote speeches to the World Bank, IMF and Federal Reserve, predicted that the price of oil is going to skyrocket way above $100 a barrel. She also discussed where gold, silver and uranium prices are headed as the war with Iran drags on far longer than people believe.

Look at what is happening behind the scenes in the gold and silver markets.

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints, carrying a massive share of global oil and LNG trade. Any disruption here can ripple through energy markets, influence inflation, and potentially drive demand for safe-haven assets like gold.

From the Great Depression to the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 recession, gold has consistently preserved wealth when equity markets faltered.

The Iran War is reshaping global markets in real time. Oil has topped $100, the largest emergency reserve release in history didn't stop prices from rising, and the gold price keeps climbing. Here's what investors need to know today.

Look at who just said silver may spike to $500+.

In early 2025, the gold-silver ratio approached 90. Mike Maloney and Alan Hibbard discussed why extreme ratios often precede strong silver rallies. Since that video, silver vs gold performance has been striking—outpacing gold, stocks, and bonds by a wide margin.

Silver often moves more dramatically than gold—but the reason isn’t random. Learn why silver is more volatile than gold, from its smaller market and rigid supply to industrial demand and leveraged futures trading. Understanding these forces can help investors better navigate silver’s bigger price swings.

The war against Iran is impacting the gold and silver markets in more ways than one. Take a look...

The February 2026 CPI report landed in line with expectations — and almost immediately beside the point. With the Iran war already reshaping oil markets, the real inflation story doesn't show up until March. Here's what traders and investors need to know.

The imminent US stock market collapse is going to send gold and silver prices to new all-time highs.  Take a look...

Silver bars or coins — it's one of the first decisions every silver investor faces. This guide breaks down premiums, liquidity, storage, and volatility so you can choose the right form of silver for your portfolio and investment goals.

Gold and silver prices eased Friday despite a week of major market signals: a $1.3B institutional bet on silver, Iran disrupting 20% of global bullion flows, oil spiking on Hormuz fears, and labor data pointing to a gradual cooldown.

Not all gold is created equal. The karat on a jewelry piece and the fineness on a bullion coin are measuring the same thing — but they mean something very different for investors. Here's how to read gold purity the right way before you buy.

Iran's conflict with the Strait of Hormuz is rattling oil markets — and quietly pushing gold and silver prices higher. Add a deepening silver supply deficit and shrinking tax refunds, and investors have plenty to watch this week.

Gold prices are rising, yet most investors still hold very little of the metal. With average gold allocation in portfolios around 2%, even small shifts in capital could have an outsized impact on prices. Here’s what the data suggests about gold’s next move.
