The $4000 Signal: What Gold’s Record High Is Telling Us About the Future of Money
The $4,000 Signal: What Gold’s Record High Is Telling Us About the Future of Money
Praise be Jesus Christ!
As we celebrate the month of our Lady, I’m struck by how history, faith, and finance continue to converge in ways too meaningful to ignore. Just last week, gold reached a record high of $4,000 an ounce—and it happened, providentially, on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.
In Scripture, gold is the only asset the New Testament counsels believers to buy as a means of preserving and building wealth. God declared, “The silver is mine and the gold is mine,” and from the very beginning He revealed where to find them. There is something deeply sacred about these metals—how they anchor us, protect us from excess, and remind us that true wealth is rooted in stewardship, not speculation.
A Shift in Global Finance
While most advisory firms still urge investors to “stay the course” in paper assets, some of the greatest minds in modern finance are sounding a very different alarm.
Why It Matters for Families
As stewards of our family and company resources, we must think like risk managers. That means looking forward, identifying what’s likely, and acting accordingly. History is clear: when nations can no longer pay their debts, currencies lose value. Physical gold and silver have always stepped in to preserve purchasing power.
This isn’t about fear—it’s about prudence. If you insure a $2 million home with a $20 thousand policy, that insurance won’t help you in a fire. Likewise, holding only a token amount of precious metals offers little protection.
Based on nearly a century of market data, an optimized portfoliotypically holds 15–25 % in physical gold and silver. That’s the range where wealth is most effectively preserved without sacrificing growth. Gold’s inverse correlation to stocks and bonds means that when paper markets fall, gold historically rises—offering rare balance in volatile times.
A Call to Faith and Fasting
These economic signs aren’t coincidences—they’re calls to wake up. In recent months, our team has committed to fasting and prayer—Wednesdays and Fridays, bread and water—as the early Christians did. Prayer without fasting, Jesus said, cannot overcome strong evil.
We invite you to join us. Fast with us. Pray with us. Every day, we pray with our clients, asking that God’s wisdom—not the world’s noise—guide financial decisions for their families.
A Final Word
Gold is more than an asset—it’s a reminder that God’s order still holds, even when man’s systems falter. It has weathered plagues, wars, and crises, and it will continue to serve as a store of value in the uncertain years ahead.
As we watch the unraveling of paper promises, may the Holy Spirit grant each of us discernment—to act boldly, to protect our families wisely, and to use the resources entrusted to us for God’s glory.

While most advisory firms still urge investors to “stay the course” in paper assets, some of the greatest minds in modern finance are sounding a very different alarm.
- Ray Dalio, founder of the world’s largest hedge fund, recommends holding 15 % of total wealth in gold.
- Morgan Stanley has raised its target allocation to 20 %.
- Jeff Gundlach, who oversees $100 billion in client assets, believes 25 % in gold and silver is not excessive.
