How do I open a Precious Metals IRA?

To open a Precious Metals IRA, complete the application form, roll over or transfer your existing retirement funds, and choose the metals you’d like to hold. Our specialists guide you through each step.

Are my metals insured and securely stored?

Yes. All metals are fully insured and stored in IRS-approved depositories with top-tier security and vault protection.

Can I transfer funds from my 401(k) or TSP into a Precious Metals IRA?

Yes. Most retirement accounts — including 401(k), 403(b), TSP, and IRAs — are eligible for a tax-free rollover into a self-directed Precious Metals IRA.

Scarcity Is Back And It’s Coming For Your Savings

In today’s rapidly shifting financial landscape, one reality is becoming clear: scarcity is back—and it’s coming for your savings.

Precious Metals Are Vanishing

Gold and silver aren’t just up—they’re vanishing.

Central banks are hoarding bullion. Private refiners are reporting delays. And premiums are rising by the week.

Some analysts now project gold could hit $5,000, with silver following close behind. Physical supply is tightening. The days of walking into a dealer and buying ounces on demand may be over.

Bitcoin Breaks $100,000—Scarcity or Signal?

Bitcoin recently touched $100,000, not just from speculation, but scarcity. With only 21 million coins in existence—and institutions now buying—there’s little left for retail investors.

This surge is a red flag: hard assets are in high demand, and the crowd is catching on.

Moody’s Just Sounded the Alarm

At the same time, Moody’s is warning the U.S. economy is on the brink of recession.

Consumer spending is slowing, inflation is still elevated, and industrial output is stalling. Combine that with government dysfunction, and a single policy error could tip us into full-scale downturn.

This isn’t a guess—it’s a pattern.

And every time we’ve seen economic stress paired with asset scarcity, one asset class has outperformed:

Precious metals.

Scarcity Rewards the Prepared

In times of abundance, few prepare.

But in times of scarcity, those who acted early are the ones who preserve (and often grow) their wealth.

If the supply crunch worsens—and if the recession takes hold—traditional portfolios may struggle. But physical assets like gold and silver are positioned to shine.

Before it gets harder to buy—or far more expensive—now is the time to secure your allocation.
