The video is a bullish interview on silver and gold led by Wall Street Bullion host Ivan with guest Michael Pachone of Can-Am Bullion. The core message is that the recent pullback in precious metals is being framed as a manipulated consolidation rather than a trend break, and both speakers argue physical silver and gold are attractive hedges against inflation, debt, and possible monetary easing.

This transcript is an interview format centered on precious metals, especially silver. The host opens with a channel giveaway and then introduces Michael Pachone, identified as president and founder/president of Can-Am Bullion. The conversation focuses on recent volatility in silver and gold, with the guest arguing that the selloff was not organic but instead a manipulated pushdown by banks, potentially amplified by war-related headlines and broad volatility in the metals market. Pachone’s main thesis is that silver and gold are in a larger bullish regime. He expects all-time highs again before year-end and says a return to highs by the end of summer is possible. He repeatedly emphasizes that near-term price action is noisy and could still go lower, but views that as irrelevant for long-term holders. …
Tactically, the setup is volatile but constructive for metals: the speaker wants dips bought, while warning that silver can still swing lower before stabilizing. The immediate risk is another sharp washout if geopolitical or liquidity headlines worsen, especially for paper exposure.
Over the next few months, the expected path is a recovery attempt back toward prior highs if metals hold the recent break and inflation/geopolitical worries stay elevated. Confirmation would come from continued price repair and renewed retail demand; failure would be a deeper reset that invalidates the consolidation thesis.
The long-term view is that persistent debt growth and policy responses will debase fiat purchasing power, making physical precious metals a core store-of-value regime. If that framework holds, paper assets and cash should remain vulnerable relative to hard assets over the next cycle.
Silver and gold are likely to make new all-time highs again before the end of the year, possibly by the end of the summer.
Guest explicitly says he expects all-time highs before year-end and maybe by summer.
The recent 20% to 30% drop in silver and similar drop in gold was not organic and was caused by manipulation by banks.
He states the selloff was a manipulated pushdown and not a natural market move.
Physical silver is preferable to paper silver ETFs because a COMEX or derivative event could hit paper products.
He warns of a possible COMEX issue and says paper silver may be caught in a derivative bubble.
What are your thoughts on silver and gold right now? Where are we headed?
Pachone says both metals will likely hit all-time highs again before year-end and possibly by summer. He frames the recent drop as a manipulated consolidation, warns about short-term volatility, and says long-term fundamentals remain bullish.
What's the best type of silver people can buy? Should they buy bars or coins?
He favors 1-ounce coins and rounds, especially government-minted coins such as Maples when premiums are reasonable. He says they are easier to liquidate later and recommends avoiding 100-ounce bars unless buying very large quantities.
Can you explain what a premium is and why premiums are different?
He says premiums reflect margin at each layer of the supply chain, including wholesalers, mints, refineries, shipping, insurance, and storage. Silver premiums are usually higher than gold because silver is bulkier and more costly to handle.
