Gold and silver are at record highs and yet demand hasn’t slowed.

In this interview, Jan Skoyles speaks with GoldCore's Dave Russell about why investors, institutions and governments continue buying precious metals at prices that would normally deter demand. The answer, they argue, has little to do with speculation and everything to do with trust. As confidence in US Treasuries, long-standing geopolitical alliances, and the stability of the financial system begins to erode, capital is quietly moving away from paper promises and toward assets with no counterparty risk.

Gold has re-emerged as the world’s ultimate quality asset, while silver is being repriced as a strategic metal essential to modern economies, military hardware and energy infrastructure.

The discussion explores:

• Why rising prices are the result of buying, not the cause.

• The breakdown of the traditional “flight to US Treasuries”.

• Gold’s role as a hedge against geopolitical and financial uncertainty.

• Why silver is no longer behaving like it did in previous cycles.

• The structural supply deficit in silver mining.

• China’s growing influence over physical silver supply.

• Why futures markets cannot meet real-world industrial demand.

This conversation looks beyond charts and headlines to explain why this cycle may be fundamentally different from those that came before.
