Robert Kiyosaki Urges Patience Amid Precious Metals and Crypto Market Volatility
As gold and silver prices experience another significant downturn, renowned investor and author Robert Kiyosaki has made it clear that he is adopting a cautious approach. In a recent social media post, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author emphasized that he is not rushing to chase prices following the recent market turbulence, instead waiting patiently for fresh bottoms in gold, silver, and Bitcoin before re-entering the market.
Strategic Waiting Game for Market Entry Points
Kiyosaki highlighted his long-standing investment philosophy that timing the entry point matters more than the exit strategy in volatile markets. "Your profit is made when you buy… not when you sell," Kiyosaki wrote, reinforcing his belief that disciplined purchasing decisions during market lows create the foundation for successful investments.
The investor revealed that he had already stopped accumulating assets earlier in the market cycle, having halted silver purchases at $60 per ounce, gold at $300 per ounce, and Bitcoin at $6,000. While he acknowledged selling some Bitcoin and gold holdings, Kiyosaki expressed his dislike for selling due to capital gains taxes, preferring instead to focus on strategic buying opportunities.
Specific Price Targets for Future Purchases
Looking ahead, Kiyosaki outlined specific price levels at which he plans to increase his market exposure. "I will buy more silver at $74 and gold at $4,000," he stated, while noting that his current Ethereum holdings are sufficient for now and don't require additional purchases.
The investor also issued a cautionary note about market psychology during volatile periods. "Pigs get fat… hogs get slaughtered," Kiyosaki warned, urging investors to exercise restraint and avoid overconfidence during sharp price rallies that often precede significant corrections.
Underlying Concerns About Debt and Institutional Trust
Beyond immediate price movements, Kiyosaki pointed to deeper systemic concerns that he believes are driving market uncertainty. He warned that the growing debt burden of the United States represents a fundamental problem, claiming that while official figures place national debt near $38 trillion, the actual figure rises dramatically when long-term obligations such as social security and Medicare are included.
According to Kiyosaki, concerns surrounding the Federal Reserve, political leadership, and the banking system continue to undermine confidence in fiat currencies, creating conditions for prolonged market uncertainty. He advised investors to remain vigilant, patient, and committed to continuous financial education, suggesting that risk awareness becomes particularly critical during turbulent market phases.
Current Market Conditions for Precious Metals and Cryptocurrencies
Silver has experienced a dramatic decline of nearly 50% from its peak of approximately ₹4.2 lakh per kilogram, while gold has fallen almost 23% from recent highs. This downward movement has been driven by risk aversion that has strengthened the U.S. dollar and pressured non-yielding assets.
On COMEX, silver plunged over 9% to $63.900 per ounce, while gold futures fell around 3% to $4,670 per ounce. Bitcoin also dropped below the $65,000 threshold, reaching its lowest level in more than a year after retreating sharply from its October 2025 peak of $126,000.
Bullion prices remain under pressure due to a combination of macroeconomic and geopolitical developments. The U.S. dollar has hovered near a two-week high and is headed for its strongest weekly gain since November, reducing the appeal of dollar-priced commodities. Additionally, easing geopolitical tensions have weakened market sentiment, with planned talks between Iran and the United States in Oman reducing nuclear-related concerns, and a phone conversation between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping helping to calm fears of escalating trade and security tensions.
