Gold’s on a 9-Week Winning Streak — But Will It Make It to 10?
Historic Streak — and a Rare One at That
Alright, folks. Gold just wrapped up its ninth week in the green. That’s not just a streak — it’s a statement. And if you think this is just another little bump in the road, let me give you a quick reality check: this kind of winning streak has only happened five times since the 1970s. That’s right — in over 50 years, gold has only done this handful of times. And never — not once — has it made it 10.
So the big question now: can it break that record?
Friday’s Dip — Just Noise in the Bigger Picture
Let’s not ignore what just happened Friday — gold dropped about 2%, the biggest one-day loss since May. But take a step back, and you’ll see it still finished the week up 5%. That’s not weakness, that’s resilience. And if you've been stacking physical gold and silver, you’re probably feeling a little more confident than the folks still glued to their brokerage apps.
Let’s Rewind: A Quick Look Back
Remember five years ago when gold broke above $2,000 for the first time? People said it was a fluke. Then it dipped. Bottomed out in 2021 around $1,677. By late 2022? Support tested again — just above $1,600. A lot of folks got shaken out.
But if you held on — or better yet, bought more — you know what came next.
A historic three-year climb.
This Rally Has Real Legs
And here’s the thing — this rally isn’t based on hype. It’s built on reality.
Let me lay it out for you:
- Global debt is ballooning out of control.
- Inflation? Still eating away at your paycheck.
- Economic growth is crawling.
- And the U.S. dollar — the very thing our system is built on — is losing credibility faster than a politician before election season.
More Storm Clouds on the Horizon
Meanwhile, new risks are bubbling up like an overcooked stew. Banks are under pressure again — just like 2023 — as businesses struggle to pay their loans. And now there’s chatter about another regional banking crisis. Sound familiar?
Let’s not forget the mess in Washington either. Congress can’t pass a budget, and we’re heading for what might become the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. If that doesn’t scream dysfunction, I don’t know what does.
Gold Is Becoming the Lifeline
And that’s where gold comes in.
It’s not just a shiny rock — it’s a signal. A signal that something’s deeply broken in our financial system. People are waking up, and they’re reaching for something real, something time-tested. That something? Gold. And silver. Always silver.
Now, yes — we might see a pullback. Prices don’t go up in a straight line. And when you hit big round numbers like $2,000, $2,200, or beyond, profit-takers love to jump in. That’s normal. But any dip we get now? It’ll likely be short and shallow — like a speed bump, not a pothole.
Big Banks Are Finally Catching On
And here’s the kicker — the big boys know what’s coming.
Société Générale, BofA, HSBC — they’re all raising forecasts. Some say we’ll see $5,000 gold in the first half of 2026. Even Jamie Dimon — the CEO of JPMorgan — says gold could hit $10,000.
Look, I’ve been around long enough to know when the wind is shifting.
This isn’t hype. It’s a signal.
If you’ve been waiting for a clear reason to act — this is it.
