Just pulled the trigger on two 10oz silver bars from Costco $319 a piece. Never bought any physical precious metals before other than getting coins here and there from the bank.

Passed on buying gold in Dubai at the souk. The haggling is no longer based on spot price and it isn't the deal it once was, other than playing the tax and exchange rate game. On necklaces, bracelets and earrings; it's all 21-22k. I don't care for - $3000 bracelet in 22k, when 14k would do just fine.

That's a great buy and a good start! Costco is throwing out some really good deals. It's been awhile since I've bought 10 oz bars; maybe around late 2023. I got a pretty fair deal on the certified Argor-Heraeus bars.

Yes. But no

It maybe just hard to get because I think it was a special mint just for this book

They are all sterling silver with a date on the front from when they served

There are some rumblings of a large gold transfer from London to the US. Not sure why just yet but, something smells. News says they are trying to move the gold before tariffs hit but, I didn't think tariffs would impact gold and silver. Any ideas?

Also, gold and silver are experiencing a fairly strong uptick.

The unipolar / globalist world is breaking up. We are headed backwards into mercantilism, and those who have a claim to precious metals want them back in their own jurisdiction(s). So, London is losing their control over the PM markets. Yes some of it IS tariff related but that's also a Wall St. talking point to cover up the previous-mentioned reason(s)

Since Trump won, COMEX gold futures have been trading at significant premium to London spot. So the big banks that are long physical gold at spot in London are selling COMEX futures at a premium. Then they are flying their gold to the US for physical settlement. Big arbitrage opportunity. JP Morgan is delivering $4bln in gold bullion to NY for February settlement.

Similar situation happening in silver. Traditionally silver is transferred from trading hubs via ships. However futures premium so much that they have stated flying silver for delivery and settlement.
