Gold and silver are sending some very interesting signals right now — and some of them may seem counterintuitive at first.

In this past weekend’s Gold & Silver Stacking Saturdays update, I covered the unusual relationship between Iran conflict headlines and the price of gold.

One of the key points discussed: when talks of peace involving Iran are in the news, gold has been moving higher — and when peace talk headlines fade, gold has pulled back.

That raises a much bigger question:

What is the market really pricing in?

In this video, I also cover:

• Why India’s Prime Minister Modi telling 1.4 billion people to stop buying gold is a massive market signal
• What Bank of America is forecasting for silver
• What the gold/silver ratio may be telling us
• What central bank gold purchases reveal about global reserve strategy
• Why some central bank gold sales in 2026 may not be as simple as they appear
• Why the bigger gold and silver story may be far from over

This is for educational purposes only, but it is an important update for anyone paying attention to gold, silver, precious metals, purchasing power, inflation, and sound money.

At the Galena Area Chamber of Commerce small business after-hours event on April 22nd we had special Galena Bicentennial Silver and Copper coins made for a special raffle for attendees. These unique one-of-a-kind coins were a great way to commemorate the Bicentennial celebration of our great town.

In addition to the Silver and Copper coins, we had additional bonus drawings for a 1/2-ounce Silver Morgan and a 1/2-ounce Silver Miss Liberty coin. The proceeds from the raffle allowed us to make a nice donation to the Disabled American Veterans.

A special thank you again to the Chamber of Commerce and the Galena Chrysler Dodge Jeep for hosting the event.
