Wall Street Silver targets 500:1 market

This week, Andrew Maguire targets the crucial stairsteps for gold and silver amidst the current volatile mix of a strong dollar and rising bond yields, and offers a marketwide update heading into a fast-closing Basel III window.

The precious metals expert breaks down the CME’s seemingly counterintuitive decision to reduce margins into a rising gold price, and shares price expectations for gold and silver ahead of next week’s BIS options expiry.

Turning to the silver squeeze, the long-time wholesaler runs through the knock-on effect of Reddit-driven physical silver demand forcing discipline on the 500-1 leveraged paper markets.

Andrew Maguire

Precious metals expert & whistleblower

Andrew Maguire is a well-known figure in the precious metals industry, primarily recognised as a whistleblower and expert on gold and silver markets. With nearly 50 years of experience as a commodities trader, he has become a key voice on market manipulation in the precious metals sector, particularly within the COMEX (Commodity Exchange) markets.

As an independent Loco London metals trader and analyst, Maguire has delivered Precious Metals Advisory and Trading services to international hedge fund managers, bullion banks, metal traders, and some of the world’s largest financial institutions. His established relationships with regulatory bodies, including the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ), as well as the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), underscore his trusted role in the industry.

In 2010, Maguire brought global attention to silver market manipulation through a whistleblower testimony to the CFTC, cementing his reputation as a highly credible authority in the precious metals community.

Today, he continues to provide his insights into precious metals and financial markets as a regular commentator on the Live from the Vault podcast, where he explores trends and developments shaping the global financial landscape.
