Gold & Silver
Mar 14th, 2025 at 7:31am
 
And so Gold has finally breached USD3000 with Silver scratching USD34.50 on the futures market.

Looking back into recent history, the last times Gold surged over 3 years was just before 2008 and during the early years of recovery between 2009 and 2011.

AUD Gold futures currently $4750, Silver $55.10.

Expect Gold / Silver at USD4000 / USD40 by December 2025.

That'd be spot price, not the futures price.

Buyers of physical gold cast bars need to add at least 1% to the spot price

USD2990+30 = USD3020
AUD4760+48 = AUD4808

During this rally, the project for the rest of March will be to establish strong support at USD3000 with April's project at USD3100... on track to reach USD4000 by December.

This will, of course, accelerate if economic conditions worsen during the rest of the year, or more major conflict erupts.

So with gold reaching $3000+ spot price what's happening to the DXY?

It seems the Trump administration may be attempting to drive the DXY back to parity at 100 - as it was in September 2024 - down from its high of over 109 in mid-January 2025.

This will improve the Australian dollar's relative value, currently nearing 64 US cents.

If this rally's trend (since Jan 2023) continues - and it appears that it will - there will be a quick rise to the next psychological resistance level - to near USD3500, probably by August-September, then a fast rise to near USD4000 from October to December.

Wild swings in gold value are never a sign of good times coming...

In the last 30 years, Gold lost/gained significant value (>10%) in:

1997 down 22% - The Asian financial crash


2002-2003 up 23% and 22% - post 9/11, US dollar weakening, government debt

2005/06/07 up 18%, 23%, 21% - pre-2008 GFC

2009/10/11 up 25%, 30%, 10% - economic uncertainty, a weak US dollar,  rising inflation

2013 down 28% - world debt crisis


2019-2020 up 18.83% and 24.43% - Brexit, COVID, low interest rates

2023-2024, up 13.08% and 27.23%, fears of inflation, Ukraine, and central bank demand.

2025 set to exceed 30%

By the end of March, the current gold and silver prices focus is currently USD3050 and USD35.00 - approx AUD4800 and AUD55.00...

With a possible temporary correction over the next few days of Gold: USD30 and Silver: USD 40 cents.

The loss of Fort Knox bullion will raise prices, thank you Mr Trump and Mr Musk.

Another smoke and mirrors distraction...

The gold will be there visually (not least due to the sheer volume of gold currently being repatriated into the US), but a full audit will not happen...

The counting of bars, confirming their serial numbers, assaying each bar to confirm that it is 99.9% gold, accounting for gold previously refined at lower than 99.9% due to lack of modern refining technology... accounting for leased gold, accounting for disputed ownership gold, accounting for gold held for other state actors...

None of that is going to happen or their results made public.

Donald Trump pressured Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger to "find 11,780 gold bars" and overturn the state's gold results.
