The beginning of the second administration of President Donald Trump has many Americans rightly optimistic about the economy. His fiscal policies and plans for tariffs offer bright spots compared to what America experienced under Joe Biden.
But there are still concerns. There are still major threats that prompt Americans to worry about their retirement accounts. The sudden rise of a Chinese AI app was enough to take the fickle stock market into a very dark place, erasing trillions of dollars in wealth in a day.
“The difference between physical precious metals and other investments is stability,” said Jonathan Rose, CEO of Genesis Gold Group. “The stock market is just one bit of major bad news away from crashing at any given moment, even with strong leadership in the White House.”
Rose’s company is both faith-driven and patriotic, adhering to the America First values that President Trump embraces. This is why they help Americans with tax-free rollovers or transfers of their retirement accounts into Genesis Gold IRAs backed by physical precious metals.
Events such as the introduction of DeepSeek hit most markets hard, but not gold and silver. Instead, their status as “safe haven” assets protected their values, according to MarketGauge Chief Strategist Michele Schneider. She said it’s not surprising precious metals are holding their ground.
“From a technical standpoint, you cannot deny gold’s bullish case, as it has been outperforming the SPY,” she said. “But we need to recognize that price will dictate the narrative. I would like to see gold break $2,800; if it does, it could easily reach $3,000.”
A recent London Bullion Market Association survey pinned gold as possibly hitting $3,290 and silver hitting $43.50 in 2025. Other more bullish projections put both much higher, including economist Martin Armstrong who believes devaluing the U.S. Dollar—as President Trump plans to do—will crash the stock markets.
Meanwhile, the coming tariffs are pointing many investors to the financial higher ground of precious metals.
“Gold is having its good days, managing to rise despite headwinds from a rising dollar and stabilizing stocks,” said Ole Hansen, head of commodities strategy at Saxo Bank A/S. “The world remains a very uncertain place which continues to provide support for havens such as gold.”

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
