When Gold Gets To $5,000 What Should I Do?

Date: Thursday, January 22, 2026 12:44 PM EST

 

This week has given investors plenty to think about.

Gold pushed toward new highs, briefly eased as tariff threats softened, while bond markets and currencies reminded everyone how quickly confidence can return and then fade again. Political tensions appeared to cool, yet the underlying uncertainty did not disappear.

Against that backdrop, one question keeps coming up:

Should I respond to the increasing gold price?

In this week’s GoldCoreTV video, we look at what rising gold prices actually signal. Why higher prices tend to reflect growing instability rather than resolution. Why bonds no longer provide the certainty they once did. And why central banks are adjusting their reserves while public attention remains fixed on political theatre.

Most importantly, we explore what selling really means for private investors, and why the decision is rarely about calling a top. It is about understanding whether the reasons for holding gold have meaningfully changed.

If you are holding gold or silver and wondering whether this week’s moves call for action or simply clearer thinking, this conversation is for you.
