The Great Flip — Gold’s Quiet Return to Power

Oct 16, 2025, 11:55 AM EDT

Over the past half-century, the world has built a financial architecture on the assumption that trust could replace collateral. Today, that assumption is being tested.

Gold above $4,200 and silver beyond $50 do not mark a bubble; they record a change in the world’s balance sheet.

In our latest video on GoldCore TV, Jan Skoyles traces how the foundations of confidence are migrating eastward: from claims to settlement, from credit to substance. The piece reflects on recent analysis and considers what it means when nations choose to hold what settles rather than what promises.

Next Tuesday we’ll be speaking live:
Gold at $4,000, Silver at $50: Peak or Turning Point?
Date: Tuesday, 21 October
Time: 7:00 – 7:45 PM (GMT+1)
Speakers: Jan Skoyles, Stephen Flood and Dave Russell

The panel will examine whether this re-pricing of precious metals marks an end, a beginning, or simply the long-delayed reconciliation between value and reality.
