In 2007, The Royal Canadian Mint produced a 1 million dollar face value pure gold coin.

The coin measured 50 cm in diameter and 3 cm thick. It weighed 100 kg, which is approximately the same as a medium sized fridge or a front loading washing machine!

Another strong week for precious metals.

This week’s market update:

🥇 Gold: $4,351.20 — +6.16% vs. last week
🥈 Silver: $63.88 — +7.78% vs. last week

Markets go up. Markets come down. That’s simply part of the journey.

For long-term stackers, the goal isn’t to chase every move or panic over every pullback. It’s about having a plan and sticking to it.

Whether prices are rising, falling, or moving sideways, consistent dollar-cost averaging (DCA) can help take emotion out of the process and keep you focused on the bigger picture.

Stay informed. Stay patient. Stay disciplined.

Keep stacking. Keep averaging. Keep building. 🪙📈

The goal isn’t to predict every move — it’s to be prepared for the ones that matter.

Just crazy the US Mint just put something on its official website that has the entire precious metals world is going nuts. A brand new one-ounce gold coin priced at $19,600. A small silver medal priced at $750. Do the simple math, and the government is effectively pricing gold near $20,100 an ounce and silver near $1,500 — while gold trades around $4,300 and silver near $66. THE US MINT LEAK: $20,100 Gold & $1500 Silver + Trump's July 4th Reset

So why is a US government institution putting numbers on its own products that imply gold and silver at 5x, even 20x, today's price?

Is it just a collectible coin premium and a wild coincidence? Or did the Mint accidentally tip its hand on the biggest monetary event of our lifetime — timed for America's 250th birthday on July 4th?

The price has risen significantly over the past year, up about 145.90% from $32.24 in April 2025.

After years of structural supply deficits, silver has entered one of the most powerful rallies.

The recent surge above $120 earlier this year was not driven by hype alone. It reflected a rare convergence of tightening physical supply, resilient industrial demand, and accelerating investor interest.

This is the making of a true silver bull market.

For several consecutive years, global silver demand has exceeded newly mined and recycled supply. Solar panel manufacturing, electric vehicles, electronics, and advanced industrial applications continue to consume enormous amounts of metal. At the same time, above-ground inventories remain relatively tight.

As these fundamentals strengthened, investors began rotating into silver. One of the clearest signs was the sharp compression in the gold-to-silver ratio. Historically, when that ratio declines, silver often outperforms gold by a wide margin.

Strong prices in industrial metals such as copper also reinforced the bullish narrative, signaling robust demand across the broader commodity complex.

Most Importantly, this does not guarantee that silver will rise in a straight line. Bull markets are volatile, and pullbacks are normal.

But the larger structural picture remains compelling.

Persistent supply deficits, strategic industrial demand, and growing investor participation are the exact ingredients that have historically driven major silver advances.

Silver is not behaving like a short-term speculative trade.

It is behaving like an asset being fundamentally revalued.

Can't wait if these conditions continue, the most dramatic phase of the move may still lie ahead let's go.

Congratulations to those that picked up silver on the dip a few days ago. Were at $82 today. Silver continues its rocket-like rally today, building on yesterday’s strong performance and breaking above the $82 level. Momentum remains very strong, and the market continues to gain strength. How high will it go. Elevated prices are currently supported by high demand from the solar, electric vehicle, and AI infrastructure sectors. Ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to drive silver's role as a hedge against uncertaint. Keep stacking dollar cost averaging.

Royal Canadian Mint (RCM)is currently facing significant scrutiny following a New York Times investigation published on April 27, 2026. The report exposed critical supply chain vulnerabilities involving gold that may have originated from mines controlled by the Clan del Golfo, a notorious Colombian drug cartel.
The Core Failure The Blended Stream Problem
The investigation revealed a specific loophole in the Mint's Responsible Metals Program
The Intermediary A Texas-based supplier sourced gold from high-risk regions in Antioquia, Colombia.
The Loophole this supplier blended the Colombian gold with American gold before shipping it to Canada.
The Mislabeling Because the final shipment originated from Texas, the RCM classified the material as North American in its documentation. This effectively rendered the Colombian component invisible to auditors and compliance officers. Immediate Response & Impact
Following the exposure, the Mint took several immediate actions:
Suspension The RCM "immediately and fully" suspended the refining of any material from the specific supply chain identified in the report.
Internal Review a comprehensive review was launched to determine how its due diligence failed to flag the Colombian feedstock.
Disclosure Reform the Mint announced it will begin publishing country-of-origin data segmented by material type, with explicit labels for "mixed" or "blended" streams to prevent similar geographic masking in the future.
Key Compliance Statistics
While the RCM maintains it was unaware of the cartel ties until notified by the media, the scale of the exposure is notable:
Volume Mixed-source material accounted for approximately 5% of the more than 5 million ounces of rough gold refined by the Mint last year. Risk Profile In subsequent disclosures, the Mint flagged four high-risk suppliers—three specifically for handling "mixed-source" materials.
Market Context
This controversy coincides with a volatile period for gold in May 2026. While buyers have been defending a floor of $4,500/oz, the market is currently weighing these supply chain concerns alongside hawkish FOMC signals and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
