Money Metals News Alert
October 20, 2025 As gold and silver made new highs in recent days, U.S. retail demand for gold and silver coins, bars, and rounds has suddenly skyrocketed.
News from London and India [link removed] regarding shortages of physical silver have roiled markets, with banks and investment funds scrambling to line up shipments of silver from the U.S. to meet the shortfall.
Thanks to its excellent balance sheet and logistics team, Money Metals remains in a strong inventory situation while other dealers sell out of many items -- or quote multi-week wait times for replenishment.

A 20% Portfolio Allocation to Gold and Silver Is Going Mainstream
Share this Article: [link removed] [link removed] [link removed]
In a seismic shift, Morgan Stanley CIO Michael Wilson recently came out with an investment strategy that includes a 20 percent allocation to gold.
Now a Sprott executive has followed suit, telling a mainstream financial network's audience that investors should consider shifting from the traditional 60/40 portfolio to a 60/20/20 allocation.
This isn't typical messaging on mainstream financial networks.
Historically, the conventional wisdom on Wall Street was a 60/40 portfolio, with 60 percent of the holdings in equities and 40 percent in fixed-income investments, primarily bonds.
The theory is that these asset classes balance each other, with stocks strengthening in a strong economy and bonds creating a hedge during downturns.

However, bonds have lost their safe-haven status in recent months. Last spring, at the height of tariff uncertainty, gold and silver rallied as bonds sold off. Gold and silver seem to be the last safe havens standing.
Given the changing market dynamics, Wilson said investors should consider a 60/20/20 strategy, swapping half of the bond portfolio for gold to serve as a ???more resilient??? inflation hedge.
In an interview on CNBC Tuesday (Oct. 14), Sprott director of ETF management Steven Schoffstall echoed Wilson, saying a 20 percent allocation to gold and silver will likely yield a better return than the traditional portfolio.
He noted that the pivot toward a lower interest rate environment with the Federal Reserve now in a cutting mood will likely benefit the metals.
???Gold's always traditionally been viewed as a safe haven for economic turmoil, geopolitical instability, things that we're seeing right now, because it doesn't have a yield. Generally, falling interest rates are beneficial for gold.
That's when we see a lot of investors start to move into gold.???
This has been evident in the surge of money into gold ETFs [link removed] in North America.
Schoffstall said this reflects growing investor acceptance of gold in the West.
???Typically, it's been viewed as a fringe or outside metal and allocation tool.???
He noted that ???more prominent economists are starting to suggest shifting from a 60/40 model to something closer to a 60/20/20 where it's 60 percent equities, 20 percent fixed income, 20 percent gold.???
Schoffstall pointed out that gold and silver are the ultimate hedge.
???What you get out of gold is that hedging to the broader investor universe.
When you start thinking about things like correlations how well does gold move versus other aspects of the economy we tend to see low to moderate correlations across most major asset classes, and an inverse correlation to the U.S. dollar all aspects of the economy that investors are starting to feel uneasy about at the moment.???
This interview isn???t as surprising as the announcement from the Morgan Stanley CIO, given Sprott???s focus on metals and critical minerals.
However, it reinforces a visible shift in mainstream investment strategy in the U.S., and, notably, he had this discussion on CNBC, a mainstream financial network that tends to ignore gold [link removed] at best and generally dismisses it outright.

Schoffstall said that even with gold at over $4,000 [link removed] , he still sees plenty of upside given persistent geopolitical tensions, trade uncertainty, and high levels of global debt.
