Tariffs, Trade, and Precious Metals

April 04, 2025

The entire stock market dropped significantly Wednesday morning in response to President Trump's aggressive tariff announcements.

The Silver Spot Price also dropped by 6%, down more than $2.00 per ounce.

The stock market and silver price drops continued again this Friday morning. 

Why is Silver Not Going Up if the Stock Market is Going Down?

Isn't Silver a Protection Against Stock Market Drops?

For more than 15 years a Friend of Medjugorje has been explaining the importance of physical silver as a stable store of your wealth outside of the paper/digital banking system.

Right now, however, the Silver market is still very heavily tied to the paper/digital markets, and so the Silver price often times reacts just like the stock market in the short run.  We don't like this, but it is the reality of the moment until major change occurs.  Recall that when Coronavirus hit the United States in March of 2020, the stock market tanked, and Silver followed, crashing down to its lowest price point in 25 years at just under $12 per ounce. 

The market reaction to President Trump's tariffs illustrates a very important understanding to keep in mind during the tumultuous times ahead:  Volatility is the New Normal.

We continue to believe that physical silver in the Miraculous Medal Medjugorje Rounds is the best way to protect your wealth.  But along with the holding physical silver, you must also maintain the understanding that we could see some very wild price swings, both up and down, in the coming months and years.

Although common sense, Biblical principles, and silver market fundamentals tell us that the price of silver should continue to rise, and perhaps rise very sharply, there is also a real possibility that the silver price may drop significantly or swing wildly while following or reacting to the stock market.  This may continue until enough people wake up and the silver price becomes detached from the paper markets.

If a price drop in silver occurs, it does not mean you made the wrong choice.  It means we're walking through a period of major correction where physical assets will be re-priced align again with their true value.

We are likely heading into a period of deep financial depression and economic suffering, but it is necessary to set us on the right footing again.  There is a chance the price of almost everything, including precious metals, could fall significantly.  But be confident in the Biblical understanding that God made silver to be used as money, and your purchasing power will be preserved even if the water gets muddy because the changing prices of everything make it appear you have lost value.  You will have preserved more than most others who stayed in the stock market. 

Does this mean you should wait and try to catch silver at just the right price?  No.  It has been proven for decades that trying to time the market just right is near impossible.  You might get lucky, but you might also miss your moment.  If you are serious in your prayer and asking Our Lady when to act, She will reveal the best timing for you.

When the price dropped to $12 per ounce in 2020, production lead times were stretched out to 12 weeks.  With everything going on in the world, we don't know what is coming, and it is important to get your wealth under your roof as soon as you can.  There is a real possibility that physical silver will become unavailable if the people that own silver simply start refusing to sell it at any price. 

A major reset is not just around the corner.  The reset is already underway.  The safest place to be is in tangible wealth, most particularly productive land and and physical silver.
