Gold and silver prices are climbing again, reaching three-week highs overnight as traders digest signs that the U.S. government shutdown may finally be ending. December gold traded around $4,146, while silver crossed $50, extending Monday’s strong rally.
Markets are reading this as more than a relief bounce. A government reopening would restart the flow of key U.S. data, which is expected to confirm what most already sense: economic momentum is fading, and the Federal Reserve may be forced to cut rates in December. Lower rates, a weaker dollar, and record deficits create the conditions that often push investors back toward real assets.
Gold is now on track for its best annual performance since 1979.
In this week’s GoldCore TV episode, Jan Skoyles explains why the latest surge in gold and silver is not about headlines or political theatre. It is about the illusion of control finally breaking.
She explores the deeper forces driving the move:
- Why volatility is not a verdict on value
- How rising yields now signal fiscal unease, not growth
- Why central banks are quietly rebuilding trust in gold
If you want perspective that goes beyond the noise, this one is worth your time.
