About this episode

Andrew Sleigh discusses the critical decision investors face regarding gold and silver purchases amidst price volatility.

Gold and silver price volatility is creating a difficult decision for investors: buy gold and silver now, or wait for another major pullback? In this Ask Andrew podcast, Andrew Sleigh discusses the price of gold above $4,400, the possibility of resistance near $4,500, and why investors trying to time the perfect bottom could miss their opportunity. Andrew explains why central bank gold buying remains important, why physical silver could play a major role during a currency crisis, and why he believes investors should accumulate precious metals during quieter markets. He also discusses silver prices, gold price expectations, silver price volatility, banking restrictions, China’s gold demand, stock market risks, and why a future financial crisis could send gold and silver prices sharply higher. For investors wondering whether to buy gold, buy silver, hold cash, or wait for lower prices, Andrew shares his approach to physical precious metals and explains why he would choose silver over gold for a $10,000 investment.
