Thinking about rebalancing some silver into gold, anyone else?

• •When I first diversified a few years back, the silver play just made a lot of sense to me for its industrial demand and lower entry point.
• •But lately, especially with all the economic uncertainty swirling around, I'm starting to feel a pull towards a higher gold allocation.
• •My thinking is, as a military retiree here in San Diego, financial security is my absolute top priority.

Okay, so I’ve been sitting on a good chunk of physical silver in my Gold IRA for a while now – probably close to 20% of my total ~$400k metals portfolio. When I first diversified a few years back, the silver play just made a lot of sense to me for its industrial demand and lower entry point. But lately, especially with all the economic uncertainty swirling around, I'm starting to feel a pull towards a higher gold allocation.

My thinking is, as a military retiree here in San Diego, financial security is my absolute top priority. I saw enough instability during my time to value rock-solid assets. Gold just feels like the ultimate safe haven, especially if things really start getting bumpy. I’m not panicking, not by any stretch, but just being prudent. I’ve been looking at my metals allocation and wondering if perhaps 80/20 gold/silver (or even 85/15) in the IRA makes more sense for my peace of mind and long-term stability than the roughly 75/25 split I have now.

Has anyone else here done a significant rebalancing from silver to gold recently within their IRA? Or even considered it? What were your biggest factors driving that decision? I'm trying to weigh the potential upside of silver if it truly spikes against the historical stability and lower volatility of gold. My Gold IRA custodian has been great, but I'm looking for some real-world perspectives from folks who've actually pulled the trigger on something like this. Any experiences, positive or negative, would be appreciated.
