Robert Kiyosaki Says Falling Gold and Silver Prices Could Be a Buying Signal

Gold and silver prices have been falling lately, worrying many investors, but Robert Kiyosaki, the personal finance author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad," says the drop should be judged by context, not price alone. In a June 20, 2026 post on X, he asked, "Am I buying or selling?" and said one of his mistakes has been letting price decide whether to buy or sell any asset.

Kiyosaki said he tries to understand the environment around an asset. In real estate, he explained, he would look at whether job growth in the area is rising or falling and assess the surrounding neighborhood if property prices collapse. For gold and silver, he said he watches political and banking leaders and asks whether they are solving economic problems in the United States and globally, or making them worse.

He argued that global leaders are "incompetent" and are worsening the situation, and said that instability creates the next opportunity. Kiyosaki said he follows the prices of gold, silver, Bitcoin and Ethereum on technical charts, and will buy once those prices reverse their downward trend. He added that the technical charts for gold and silver suggest they are ready for a major price surge.

He closed by urging readers to think independently: "Please do not believe me. What do you think? What do you see?" He warned that the economic situation is complex and said, "The smart will get richer... the ignorant will do nothing... which may actually be the smartest thing for them to do."
