R. Kiyosaki sets date when silver will hit $200

Financial educator Robert Kiyosaki believes the ongoing silver momentum is likely to be sustainable and could hit the $200 mark in the coming months.

The Rich Dad Poor Dad author pointed to silver’s recent climb above $70 as a key psychological milestone but dismissed the idea that current levels represent a market peak, according to an X post on December 26.

In his view, the price action reflects the beginning of a broader repricing driven by structural forces rather than a speculative blow-off.

Kiyosaki said silver still has significant upside potential, projecting a wide range between $70 and $200 as a realistic, though aggressive, outcome in 2026.

The investor tied this outlook to a combination of long-term monetary pressures, supply constraints, and rising industrial demand, themes that have increasingly dominated the silver market narrative over the past year.

Silver record highs 

His comments come as silver prices reached a new record high at $79, supported by expectations of easier U.S. monetary policy, persistent supply deficits, and expanding use of silver in solar energy, electronics, and electric vehicles.

The metal has also benefited from growing investor interest as a hedge against currency debasement and fiscal instability, factors that Kiyosaki has repeatedly highlighted in his broader economic warnings.

Kiyosaki also pointed to his long personal history with the metal, noting that he began accumulating silver decades ago when prices were below one dollar an ounce and has continued buying even at current elevated levels.

He framed silver ownership as a long-term conviction trade rather than a short-term timing exercise, emphasizing the importance of independent research and gradual accumulation.

Lingering market crash 

While acknowledging that mistakes are inevitable for investors, Kiyosaki argued that active learning and personal decision-making ultimately build both financial resilience and long-term wealth. 

Indeed, he has long warned of an incoming economic crash but maintains that investors who opt for alternatives such as silver, gold, and Bitcoin (BTC) are more likely to protect their wealth.

Notably, the two precious metals have rallied strongly in 2025, with some market participants warning that the performance could be signaling rising economic stress as investors increasingly seek safe-haven assets.
