Analyst

Biography

Peter Spina is the founder, President, and CEO of GoldSeek.com and SilverSeek.com, two of the most-visited independent precious metals investor websites. He has spent three decades investing in gold and silver mining stocks, with a focus on the micro-cap end of the market — the part of the resource sector most exposed to leverage on the underlying metal.

Spina launched GoldSeek.com in 1995 and built it into a top-tier gold investor destination reaching more than 100,000 readers a month. He later established SilverSeek.com, which now ranks as the most-visited silver-focused website globally, drawing more than 50,000 readers a month. His market commentary has been cited by mainstream financial outlets including MarketWatch and Barron's, and he is a recurring speaker at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC).

His investment philosophy treats gold and silver first as monetary metals — stores of value outside the financial system — and only secondarily as commodities. He tracks global monetary and financial developments, central bank activity, and physical supply-demand fundamentals, then translates that macro backdrop into specific stock-level calls in the precious metals mining sector. The bulk of his stock coverage is in junior and micro-cap miners, where the leverage to a metal price move is largest.

In recent interviews Spina has argued that silver is in the middle of a structural repricing after years of lagging gold, and has publicly forecast that silver could blow past $100 per ounce in a sustained short-squeeze scenario. He is also a frequent YouTube host, conducting long-form interviews with mining executives and other precious metals commentators that have become a regular touchpoint for retail resource investors trying to follow the sector.

Peter Spina: Silver Is Poised To Blow Past $100

Peter Spina: Silver Is Poised To Blow Past $100

guest Sep 3, 2026
  • Top takeaway Spina argues silver is poised to blow past $100/oz, with a likely run toward $90-$100 this year and fresh highs next year as investment demand returns.
  • He frames the bull market as a multi-year cycle tied to a US sovereign-debt crisis, expecting a dramatic break around 2030 and an inflationary 'soft default' instead of a hard one.
  • He calls gold and silver miners historically undervalued with wide cushions (AISC near $1,800/oz versus $4,000+ gold as of September 2026), favoring junior explorers and developer take-out candidates, particularly in silver.
  • He highlights silver's sixth consecutive year of structural supply deficits and points to central-bank and Asian dip-buying — including China, Poland, and Bank of Korea — as durable supports.
  • He warns of a short pullback after a 50%+ August move in miners, but views the broader trend as intact barring a general-market liquidity event.

Spina expects silver to push back toward $100 as Western investors return and structural supply deficits persist. AISC (All-In Sustaining Cost — what it really costs to produce an ounce) sits near $1,800, leaving producers extraordinary margins above $4,000 gold. Spina frames this as a multi-year precious metals cycle that won't peak until policymakers confront U.S. debt through sustained inflation. Foreign central banks accelerated gold buying during the recent dip, anchoring demand independent of Western investment flows. Junior exploration and developer companies look like potential M&A targets because major miners haven't replaced depleted reserves.
