The World Economic Forum (WEF) is taking place in Davos, Switzerland, this week.Presidents, PMs, CEOs, bankers, and other "elites" have hopped in their private jets to lecture us peasants about climate change. And of course there will be plenty of plotting, scheming, and discussing geopolitics.Having so many swamp dwellers packed into such a small area only happens once a year.Given the chaotic st...Read More
My goodness...Gold and silver just keep going.Silver just hit $101/oz, while gold rose above $5,000/oz.Two huge milestones in a single day.For silver, we described this move pretty well as it developed. Industrial demand is soaring from electronics and solar panels. And now that investors are jumping on board, this explosive move is the result.But gold is arguably sending an even more urgent messa...Read More
We need to talk about the difference between physical gold and gold miners.Physical gold, the actual metal, is insurance. Unlike a country's currency, gold is an asset without being someone else's liability. That means it can't be frozen or sanctioned by another country. That makes it the asset of choice for financial institutions when there is risk of currency debasement and inflation.Inflation s...Read More
In March of last year, I wrote an article titled "Silver's 3x Upside".Silver was trading at $34.33 at the time.I expected the move to $100 to take until 2028, maybe even longer.Instead, silver shifted into vertical mode during the second half of 2025. It's currently trading at $111.69 per ounce, after briefly reaching $117.Lately, even I've been questioning whether it's time to take some profits.B...Read More
"Never open your article by talking about the weather."That' advice comes from one of the high priests of editorial writing, Mark Ford, who ran a bootcamp for writers which I attended long ago. I've not forgotten what he said, so I try to stick to my wheelhouse which is economic issues, energy, metals, geology and military stuff, and various related subjects.But today? Well... Today the weather IS...Read More
Silver closed trading today in Shanghai, China at $131.31/oz.That's $16 over the U.S. price.During this bull run, China has led the way. As we discussed yesterday, that's where the bulk of silver demand comes from.Silver is still primarily an industrial metal. As the best conductor of electricity, it's highly useful in electric vehicles, solar panels, and even modern weapons systems.We've covered...Read More
Gold, silver, and miners are finally dipping after an insane run.Red days are no fun, but this is healthy for long-term bulls. We needed to slow down and consolidate gains. The move was too far, too fast.If you're looking to buy, free up some cash and be patient. This drop could be substantial. Although lately, every dip in gold and silver has been bought with a vengeance. We'll have to see if thi...Read More
Did you believe Jim Rickards when he coined the phrase "Mar-a-Lago Accord"?Did you believe Stephan Miran when he actually wrote the Mar-a-Lago Accord?If you did, you're way ahead of Wall Street. And lightyears ahead of Main Street.No one really believed until two days ago. Not Wall Street. Not the City of London. Not Tokyo, Hong Kong, or Singapore.That's when The Donald told the world the dollar w...Read More
Well, it's finally here.A major correction in gold and silver. It's pretty gnarly out there.A big dip was inevitable, as we've mentioned a few times lately. Metals have come a very long way in a very short time.But the sharpness of this move has surprised me. As I write, silver is down about 27% on the day to $83. Oof.Thankfully, gold is "only" down 11% and miners are down around 14%.At times like...Read More
On August 24, 2006, I joined Dr. Steve Sjuggerud on a trip to Tennessee. He asked me to come with him to visit a zinc smelter, of all things.For those of you who don't know Dr. Steve, he was one of the most successful newsletter writers and investors ever. He retired from Stansberry Research to surf, invest, and live the good life.He wanted to go to Clarkesville Tennessee because the company, Zini...Read More
If Ibn Khaldun parachuted into Washington in 2026, he wouldn't ask for directions. He'd ask for a whiteboard.The man spent the 14th century explaining why empires rise, rot, and fall apart under their own weight.The awkward truth? His framework maps onto modern America a little too cleanly.Debt binges. Bloated bureaucracies. Culture-war bread and circuses. Elites who talk about "the people" the wa...Read More
