Updates to the Guide...

For over a year, the Free Bullion Investment Guide has been undergoing a full overhaul, focusing on preserving the good while re-editing or rewriting all other content. 

Below is the latest group of updated pages.

Latest Updated pages:

I've been updating and re-editing the Platinum & Palladium buying guide.  I was hoping to get it done before now, but that hope has been pushed back to the end of February.

Since I wasn't able to get the Platinum and Palladium buying guide done, I decided to put up some archive pages that I've been wanting to post.  So I recently created the following pages for the Bullion News & Commentary Archive pages. 

• 1st Quarter of 2024
• 2nd Quarter of 2024
• 3rd Quarter of 2024
• 4th Quarter of 2024
• 1st Quarter of 2025

The quarterly pages serve as archive pages for bullion news links and provide price charts to show market fluctuations.  Although some links may no longer be active, the headlines offer insight into how the precious metal markets moved during the quarter.   

Revamping the Free Bullion Investment Guide is still a work in progress; there is more to come.

My Opinion on Gold & Silver

Fundamentals Analysis:

It is not a surprise to me that gold and silver have fallen in price over the last few days.  

First off, no asset has ever gone up in price like silver and gold have over the last three months without a strong pullback. However, had an event happened on the 28th of January, the price of gold and silver would likely continued to move higher.   The reason is right there in front of everyone's face, but I have not heard or read anyone correctly diagnose what happened on January 28th that changed the direction of gold and silver prices.

The first misdiagnosis of the fall in gold and silver comes from the mainstream financial media, which has blamed it on Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh to be the Next Federal Reserve
chairman.

• Gold, Silver Are Volatile After Slump. Why Trump’s Warsh Fed Pick Is Bashing Prices. - BARRON'S
• Specter of Warsh Fed sparks precious metals 'debasement' crash - Reuters
• Silver plunges 30% in worst day since 1980, gold tumbles as Warsh pick eases Fed independence fear - CNBC

Kevin Warsh wasn't it, and I'll prove that to you in a minute.  The second misdiagnosis of the fall in gold and silver prices comes from names known in the precious metals industry who blame the
CME (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) for raising their margin requirements for holding gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.

• Monthly Portfolio Review, January 2026 - John Rubino's Substack
• The Collapse In Gold And Silver Was Not Caused By Kevin Warsh - Seeking Alpha

The last two misdiagnoses only reported half-truths. The CME (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) did raise the margin requirements for holding gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, but this happened
after prices had already dropped. 

• CME raises gold, silver margins after historic price plunge - MINING.COM
• CME Raises Gold, Silver Margins in Wake of Historic Precious Metals Crash - FXLeaders

The event that caused gold and silver to fall in price is that the Federal Reserve did not lower the Federal Funds Rate on January 28th; they kept it at 3.75%, I explained why I doubted they
would lower rates in the Fundamental Analysis section of last month's newsletter: here.

In this guide's December Newsletter, I wrote in the Fundamental Analysis section that the Federal Reserve's rate cuts were what was the main driving force pushing gold and silver higher. Read the
Fundamental Analysis of the December Newsletter here.

The gold and silver charts below show that since mid-September, lowering the Federal Funds Rate has helped drive the precious metals higher. It also shows how the latest Federal Reserve action on January 28th, to maintain the Federal Funds Rate at 3.75%, was likely the main reason for the fall in gold and silver prices.  (Click Gold Chart or click here to enlarge chart)  (continued commentary on Kevin Warsh and this subject under the charts)

(Click Silver Chart or click here to enlarge chart)  

I don't think Kevin Warsh had much to do with the price of gold and silver going down.

Everyone knows that no matter who is the chairman of the Federal Reserve, President Trump will likely tell them to lower interest rates until he's satisfied, and we all know that he isn't satisfied with interest rates yet. Which is why I still expect Gold and Silver to go higher.  The question nobody knows right now is what gold and silver will do in the near future. There's more about that in the technical analysis below.

Technical Analysis:

Gold Analysis:

Due to Gold's recent fall in price, there isn't much in the way of showing technical analysis patterns.  However, gold has broken below a trend line established from its price increases over the past five months in its most recent decline.  So, this may indicate that gold may fall below it again; time will tell, but whether it
breaks below the trendline or not, I expect consolidation in gold's price with minimal up or down movement over the next month or until the next Federal Reserve Meeting on March 17-18th.

Gold Chart               (Click the chart to enlarge or click here)

Silver Analysis:

In the Silver Price Chart below, it has the same trendline that is shown in the gold price chart above, but it clearly shows that silver's price isn't anywhere close to falling below it anytime soon.   Like gold, it looks like we may see more consolidation in silver's price over the next month or so.

Although I didn't say this above, but, speculation suggests that Trump's military buildup in the Persian Gulf may lead to airstrikes on Iran, resulting in increased uncertainty for the markets and potentially driving up the prices of gold and silver. This scenario could include support for Reza Pahlavi in reclaiming the presidency in Iran. Otherwise, we may be looking toward March 18th to find out what the Federal Reserve will do next with interest rates to see new motivation for gold and silver to move higher.

Charts provided courtesy of Tradingview.com

Note: If there happens to be a Large Broad-Market Correction or Crash in the next four weeks, gold and silver usually, and likely will again, drastically fall in price as traders scramble for liquidity and will sell anything to find it.  Although the prices of silver and gold may fall in this type of market, they are also the quickest to recover after such events.

Note:  All the charts and commentary in this newsletter are in no way an endorsement of how you should invest or divest.

One Last Thing...

Do you know Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
No matter what age you are or what problems you're dealing with, the best thing you can do is know Jesus, and he'll help you set all your paths straight.

"This is why Christianity is different from every other religion in the world, and no college will tell you this. People say all the religions are the same. No, Christianity, unlike any others, all the other religions, is you trying to get closer to God; Christianity is God who came to you."

"What is Grace? We know what justice is: you break into a store, you get what you deserve, you get a month in prison. Mercy, is you go in front of the judge and he says, "You know, I'll give you a week in prison."

"Now Grace is something different. Grace is that when you die and you face your creator, and they have a list of everything wrong you've ever done, ever, private and public, omniscient, omnipotent, all of it, and a judgement is about to be given, you're about to get your sentencing, and instead of mercy, instead of justice, all the sudden someone (Jesus Christ) steps and says, "Hold on, I know him, I know her, I'll serve that prison sentence, you can go live free."

"That is Grace, and only Jesus Christ can give you that." 

                                                                 - Charlie Kirk on "X"  

Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." John 14:1-6

Embrace the belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, born as God Incarnate, who willingly did the will of his Father (God) and died for you and shed his sinless blood so that your sins could be forgiven.

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  John 3:16-17

When you reach out to God with a sincere heart and ask for forgiveness of your sins in Jesus' name, and repent. You will no longer be a slave to sin and will start walking a new path. You will be born again and be filled with the Holy Spirit and receive the gift of everlasting life.

But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. - John 14:26

I encourage you to learn more about Jesus Christ by reading the New Testament of the Holy Bible. Talk/Pray to him like you would your best friend, and end your words with "in Jesus name, Amen" because there is power in his name.

When you believe in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, you'll see him make your paths straight and move mountains in your life.

Until next month, Thank you for your time and your support.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Take Care & God Bless,
Steven Warrenfeltz
