Elijah K. Johnson
Host
"Hosting in-depth interviews with precious metals analysts and commodity market commentators on Silver Doctors and Soar Financially"
Biography
Elijah K. Johnson is a financial media host and interviewer best known for his work with Silver Doctors and the Soar Financially YouTube channel, where he conducts in-depth interviews with commodity analysts, mining executives, and macroeconomic commentators. His programming focuses heavily on precious metals markets, with regular coverage of gold, silver, and the broader resource sector, making him a familiar face among retail mining investors.
Johnson has interviewed a wide range of prominent voices in the commodity and mining investment space, including Todd "Bubba" Horwitz of BubbaTrading.com, Steve Barton, and numerous other analysts known for their work in gold and silver markets. His interviews typically explore macroeconomic themes—inflation, Federal Reserve policy, currency debasement—and connect these forces to precious metals prices and mining stock valuations. He has covered topics ranging from gold price targets of $6,000 to silver volatility and housing market corrections.
As an interviewer, Johnson serves as a conduit for commodity-focused education rather than offering his own investment recommendations. His value to mining stock investors lies in his ability to draw out actionable analysis from his guests, pressing them on timing, price targets, and sector-specific opportunities in the precious metals and broader resource space.

Gold's BIG Reset May Still Be Coming | Andy Schechtman
The guest points to record COMEX (US metals futures exchange) deliveries — buyers standing for real metal, not paper — defying falling prices. A gold-backed US Treasury bond remains viable after missing its expected July 4 debut, the guest argues, and could restore Treasury-market confidence. The guest traces price-setting power shifting east, with exchanges in Shanghai, Dubai, Hong Kong, and Singapore settling metal in physical, one-day trades. Tokenized gold with verified one-to-one backing could force unwinding of rehypothecation — the practice of selling claims on the same metal repeatedly. Retail premiums fell after a perfect storm of margin hikes, ETF rebalancing, distributor allocations, and public selling; the guest expects recovery.
This Is The BIG ONE: Gold & Silver Warning | Francis Hunt
- Top takeaway As host, Johnson frames the interview around the July 2026 gold and silver flush — silver breaking below $60 and trading near $57 as they tape — and the collapse of the Iran ceasefire.
- Drawing on the late-January 2026 crash (silver sliding from about $110 through $90 toward $74), he presses Hunt on how investors can avoid being shaken out and whether to build cash now.
Guest Francis Hunt expects a 6% run on the US 10-year yield, which pressures gold and silver short term because metals pay no yield. He frames the AI data-center boom as debt-financed property with quickly depreciating tenants, calling this credit cycle more subprime than dot-com. Forced selling in a deleveraging can drag gold and silver down first; he argues extreme dips should be bought by unleveraged, liquid investors. Timing guidance: wait for volatility to contract and marginally lower lows to form rather than trying to pick an exact bottom. He advises building cash, reducing debt, and keeping some physical metals and banknotes outside banks to avoid being forced to sell.
Brace For Impact: The Catalyst For A 60% Crash | Todd "Bubba" Horwitz
- Top takeaway As host, Johnson frames the interview around whether precious metals have bottomed and whether the AI-driven stock rally is a bubble.
- He likens the housing setup to 2008 and asks whether the wave of trillion-dollar IPOs could be a way for big players to hand their exposure to retail buyers.
Gold's bottom near $4,000 and silver's near $55 look intact to the guest, who argues long-term buyers can start accumulating physical metal. The guest warns lofty earnings expectations leave the AI-led market set up for a 40-60% decline beginning with the Magnificent Seven stocks. Rising credit card delinquencies and zero-down mortgage offers are the guest's warning signs of household stress echoing 2008. The guest expects two rate hikes priced for this year, with the 10-year Treasury yield heading to 6% as the crash trigger. Higher rates may pressure gold briefly, but the guest argues an equities panic would send money into precious metals while grains lead commodities higher.
Silver: Could We Soon Run Out? What You Need To Know | Don Durrett
- Top takeaway As host, Johnson presses on downside targets, what would confirm the correction is over, and what move investors will regret not making by July 2027.
- He flags a flipped physical dynamic at $100-plus silver, where costly hedging left dealers with a glut that was hard to sell, and asks whether scarcity returns in the next stage of the bull market.
Silver deficits averaging over 100 million ounces for five years stem from investor demand, and the guest expects genuine physical shortages ahead. Gold's 29% correction from 5,600 mirrors past bull-market pullbacks; he expects one more dip below 4,000 before a year-end rally. The guest's key signal is the gold-to-S&P 500 ratio: above 0.77 would mark rotation into metals and the next miner leg. He argues US deficits near $2 trillion yearly create a doom loop, making Fed monetization, recession, and a gold fear trade likely. Silver follows gold as a monetary metal: he targets roughly $150-175 silver and 8,000-plus gold over the next three years.
AI Race To Destruction: "Brace For Impact" | Doomberg
Doomberg argues that trillion-dollar AI valuations function as stealth money creation, fueling inflation while enabling financial repression through capital misallocation. Surging AI energy demands are driving a structural shift toward natural gas, coal, and nuclear power, overriding years of climate-focused policy rhetoric. The guest contends that Western sanctions on major powers are accelerating de-dollarization and pushing the global economy toward a multipolar order.
Gold & Silver Got Too Cheap... I'm Buying Hand Over Fist | Peter Grandich
- Top takeaway The host relays the Judy Shelton idea that the US should lead gold-accumulating countries by backing bonds with gold on the nation's 250th anniversary, and asks the guest how a July 4 announcement would affect the gold market.
- He contrasts the super-bullish late-January calls for silver in the hundreds of dollars with today's bearish sentiment, and asks whether long-term buyers should hold back cash for lower prices.
Peter Grandich says he is fully invested in gold, silver, and mining shares again, calling the correction an attractive accumulation point. Gold-miner bullish sentiment hit zero while central bank buying and rising debt stay intact, so he bets against the pessimism. He warns fading market leaders, an unwinding yen carry trade, and peaking passive-fund flows are classic preconditions for a long stock-market decline. Gold bought near $1,300 served as insurance that delivered crisis liquidity, he says, while revaluation talk without a Fort Knox audit is hopeful thinking. Long-term investors should weigh modest downside against multi-year upside toward $10,000 gold and ignore forecasters who perpetually tout higher prices.
Gold & Silver Bloodbath: Lower Prices Ahead? | Tiggre & Innecco
- Top takeaway The host observes that viewer sentiment is deeply depressed after six months of falling prices, even though gold and silver still trade well above where they stood a year earlier.
- He presses the guests on where the market may be mispricing things — the new Fed chair's hawkish turn and oil after the Strait of Hormuz disruption — and asks what would confirm a bottom in the metals.
Tiggre booked realized gains while gold went vertical and holds cash, arguing selling into euphoria is discipline, not bearishness. Both guests read the washout as a correction inside a larger bull, though Tiggre admits the chart is starting to resemble 2011. Markets flipped from pricing rate cuts to hikes; if the hawkish-Fed narrative proves wrong, Tiggre sees metals weakness as opportunity. Innecco keeps 90 percent of metals exposure physical, treats bullion as savings rather than speculation, and adds on drawdowns. Tiggre's top trade now is oil: post-Strait repairs and reserve refills could shock prices higher, with uranium and tungsten next in line.
The $20,000 Gold Trade: What Smart Money Sees Coming | David Jensen
- Top takeaway The host says he has mixed feelings on the pullback: on a technical level silver could dip toward $50 and gold toward $3,500, but with silver about 50% off its all-time high and gold about 25% off its all-time high as of the June 2026 interview, buyers who wait risk missing the move.
- He notes that US retail demand for physical metals has been slow on price dips, with only a modest increase in calls on down days from long-time buyers.
Large call options betting gold reaches $20,000 an ounce by December 2026 signal, in David Jensen's view, big players positioning for a monetary system reset rather than a mere price target. War-disrupted oil logistics are already biting: Persian Gulf base oil shortfalls are thinning motor oil supply, and Jensen sees embedded price inflation forcing interest rates sharply higher. Gold and silver are mispriced, he argues, because London promissory notes and futures contracts sell hundreds of millions of gold ounces and billions of silver ounces that do not exist. Jensen expects the endgame in waves — inflation shocks, spiking rates, bank failures, bond and debt revulsion — followed by either central bank digital control or private gold and silver money. His advice: treat physical metal as a lifeboat, secure an adequate amount rather than timing false paper prices, and consider more sustainable living outside large cities.
Gold & Silver Warning! A Major Move Is Now Imminent | Chris Vermeulen
- Top takeaway As the host, Elijah K. Johnson steers the interview through gold and silver levels, the oil lag effect after the potential Strait of Hormuz reopening, and whether a diverging gold-vs-stocks correlation signals a tide change.
- He presses the guest on Fed policy, noting the market was surprised when the new Fed chair held rates steady but hinted hikes could come as oil and food inflation builds.
Vermeulen says gold must hold $4,000 and silver roughly $60-61; losing those levels opens quick drops toward $3,600 and $40. A Fibonacci-based bullish path targets roughly $8,600 gold and $175 silver, but only if current lows hold and the US dollar rolls over. He flags the US dollar as the key inverse indicator: a dollar breakout would likely break metals' critical support and pressure prices lower. He compares today to 2007, expecting one final euphoric AI-driven equity push before money rotates into precious metals during a broader reset. Having sold near the peak, he stays long-term bullish and will re-enter on either a deep discount or a fresh technical buy signal.
US Lost Iran War: Famine & Currency Crisis Ahead | Bob Moriarty
- Top takeaway The host frames the discussion around the Iran 'deal', the Strait of Hormuz closure, and whether the reported oil-price calm can hold into the midterms.
- He raises the theme of a demoralized American populace, noting a split in the MAGA movement over unfulfilled promises, and asks how people should prepare for a possible dollar collapse.
Moriarty argues the Iran war proved the petrodollar system fatally flawed, ending Gulf states' recycling of surpluses into US assets. Military-industrial economics are failing: cheap drones forcing multi-million-dollar interceptors shift war's outcome to cost asymmetry, not battlefield superiority. Reserve-currency eras historically last about 80 years; Moriarty says America's 82-year run ends through deliberate currency inflation, not repayment. Expect delayed shocks even after the Strait of Hormuz reopens — fertilizer shortages, famine risk, and fuel supply lags of six weeks to three months. Preparation centers on personal responsibility: avoid debt, cut expenses, hold a cushion, and treat gold and silver as chaos insurance.
The Elite Are Building Bunkers & Preparing For Collapse | Alex Newman
Newman argues money printing lets elites quietly transfer wealth from savers, and warns tokenization could tighten that grip on every asset. He contends major tech platforms were government-built surveillance tools from the start, so algorithmic censorship is a feature, not a bug. A 141-vote UN General Assembly endorsement of an International Court of Justice climate ruling claims a legal emissions duty on all governments. State-level transactional gold laws in Florida, Texas, and Arkansas signal growing parallel-currency momentum investors can track. Newman urges sourcing news from long-trusted outlets and building local resilience through homeschool and food co-ops.
Silver Market "Short-Term Pain" Before SYSTEM MELTDOWN | Bill Holter
- Top takeaway The host steers the interview toward practical preparedness, pressing the guest on barter utility of junk silver, the risk that bank and brokerage customers do not legally own their holdings, and fraudulent property-tax assessments, citing Mitch Vexler's claim that 36% of US property owners would be insolvent if hit with the full municipal debt burden tagged to their properties.
The guest argues gold and silver's recent pullback reflects liquidity needs and paper selling, not any deterioration in long-term fundamentals. Emerging market economies are using gold as an ATM, selling metal to raise cash ahead of large IPOs like SpaceX. The guest contends paper markets suppress commodity prices and expects a currency reset eventually backed by gold and real commodities. Bank and brokerage balances are unsecured loans, so the guest advises holding physical metals outside the financial system. Junk silver (pre-1965 90% US coinage) is favored for barter because its supply is fixed, since none has been minted since 1964.
URGENT: "This Weekend Could Be Catastrophic" w/ No Ceasefire | Bob Moriarty forecasts
Geopolitical tensions surrounding Iran and the Strait of Hormuz could trigger a massive energy shock, disrupting global markets and accelerating inflation. Hidden stress in bond markets, commercial real estate, and speculative AI stocks may collide, creating a catastrophic perfect storm for investors. US global hegemony is deteriorating, leading to a geopolitical restructuring and a potential reset of the global financial system.
Trump’s Sedition Act for Israel | Dr. Paul Craig Roberts
Former Treasury official argues US global influence is in long-term decline as power shifts to other nations. Decades of foreign intervention have stretched American military and financial dominance, accelerating this shift. Discussion examines rising challenges to US policy, sanctions-based financial pressure, and dollar decline.
40%-60% Stock CRASH & $6000 Gold | Todd "Bubba" Horwitz
Horwitz warns that the current stock market rally is driven by retail investors, not institutional money, signaling a potential 40-60% market crash. He forecasts gold could reach $6000 per ounce, driven by severe inflation, massive consumer debt, and growing economic instability. Investors are advised to maintain disciplined strategies, avoid excessive debt, and hold physical gold and silver for long-term wealth protection.
Gold Reveals the Real Housing CRASH the Dollar Hides | Steve Barton
Housing market has already crashed significantly when priced in real money like gold, silver, platinum, and copper instead of U.S. dollars. Inflation and currency debasement distort traditional housing valuations, giving investors a false picture of affordability and market health. Precious metals holders now possess significantly more buying power in real estate than nominal dollar prices indicate.
The Real War Is Ahead; Markets Are WRONG | David Woo
David Woo warns that markets are dangerously underestimating the risk of escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict, which could trigger a major global economic shock. The widely held belief that China will pressure Iran into a ceasefire resolution is flawed due to deeper, conflicting long-term strategic interests between the nations. Escalating geopolitical tensions could send oil prices sharply higher, driving up inflation and creating a favorable macroeconomic environment for gold investments.
Markets Are LYING? V-Shape ‘FAKE’ & Inflation Shock Ahead | Clem Chambers
Clem Chambers warns the V-shaped market recovery is artificial, driven by money printing rather than genuine economic fundamentals. Geopolitical chaos, supply chain shifts, and rising energy costs are fueling a new inflation that could quietly erode investor wealth. Chambers shares his cautious outlook on gold, silver, and rare earths as the world potentially enters a new economic era.
World War For Resources Has Started | Greg Weldon
- Top takeaway As host, Johnson frames the conversation around three investor questions — whether $50 is now support in silver, where the next precious-metals buy point sits, and how much downside risk the stock market carries — and presses Weldon on whether silver could revisit sub-$30 levels given the 2011 peak and 2020 low.
The guest frames gold's run as China dumping US treasuries and de-dollarizing reserves rather than inflation expectations. He tags the $4,000-$4,500 zone as gold's next major buy area and $62-$74 as the key silver support band. He calls the US dollar's secular decline 'just beginning,' arguing a weaker dollar extends the precious metals bull market. The guest warns of a US equity selloff, noting revolving credit has only declined year-over-year before two prior recessions. He flags AI-driven labor displacement as a new risk to US consumer health and corporate earnings.
Ask the Broker LIVE!
- Top takeaway Discussed that Silver Eagles are the most negotiable coin in North America and that clients should swap into Eagles over rounds or bars when premiums narrow
Silver's pullback from above $100 to the mid-$70s has flipped retail flow from buying to heavy selling, with buyback premiums collapsing as bullion exchanges flood. Viral silver-scare videos on YouTube routinely cite non-existent CME rules or bill sections, so investors should verify each claim against official filings. Sovereign coins like American Eagles and Canadian Maples hold their premiums through sell-offs, while generic 10-oz bars and assorted rounds see bids collapse first. A precious-metals IRA combines three separate companies, a custodian, a dealer, and a depository, because no entity is allowed to fill more than one role. Silver spot prices move with bank futures positioning more than with physical demand, so retail investors should watch both signals separately.
