And why gold now? Here are some of the reasons, with more to come this evening.

July 28, 2021

Dear Fellow Investor,

This is going to be a busy day.

First off, I’m in the midst of writing our August issue of Gold Newsletter. This issue is featuring an exciting new junior gold stock recommendation from me. (How exciting? The worst performing stock we’ve recommended from this group multiplied four times over!).

Importantly, this issue is also going to feature my latest analysis of the economy and the prospects for gold in the days ahead.

But I’m putting that analysis off for now — because whatever I might write at this moment would likely need to be dramatically re-written after the release of the latest Fed policy statement this afternoon.

Fortunately, as I mentioned last week, I’m participating in a special webinar — entitled “Why Should I Own Precious Metals?” — being hosted by my friend Bronson Hill this evening at 4:00 p.m. PDT/6:00 p.m. CDT/7:00 p.m. EDT.

I’m being joined on this webinar by two of the most insightful experts I could ever recommend, my friends Dana Samuelson (of American Gold Exchange) and Russell Gray (of The Real Estate Guys). We’re set to answer a wide array of questions that investors have on investing in metals and miners.

The good news is that our comments are going to be informed by whatever the Fed and Chairman Powell say this afternoon.

So I urge you to attend this special event. You can register for free, by simply CLICKING HERE.

In the meantime, I thought I’d give you an advance peek at my answer to the title question — why should you own precious metals?

My answer is simple, but it is simultaneously two-faceted.

Insurance First And Foremost

First, I advise everyone new to the sector to look at gold (and silver) not as investments, but as wealth insurance.

And to appreciate the role of the metals in this regard, you should compare it to home insurance. Consider that, while you don’t really expect your house to catch on fire, just about every homeowner carries insurance against that threat.

With gold, you’re actually insuring against something you know is going to happen: The depreciation of your country’s fiat currency.

That your currency will depreciate over your lifetime is not in question; only the rate is still to be determined. And the record shows that over thousands of years of human history, gold and silver have always preserved wealth as this inevitable trend of currency depreciation plays out.

So every investor needs to have a significant percentage of their wealth in the form of physical gold and silver, with a significant portion of that readily accessible.

Next: Gold And Silver As Investments

As we’ve discussed over and over again in these letters, the evidence that fiat currency depreciation (read: inflation) is going to accelerate in the months and years ahead has built to irrefutable levels.

The easiest monetary policy in U.S. history, accompanied by the greatest fiscal spending spree since World War II...and with this trend likely to accelerate...underscore the importance of insuring your wealth with gold and silver.

But if we are confident that this secular trend is in place, then we can also allocate our investments to leverage that trend.

This is where mining stocks focused on gold and silver, as well as base metals and other commodities, come into play.

In this broad sector, there is a wide spectrum of mining stocks — from major producers, to mid-tier miners, to development companies to speculative exploration plays — to choose from.

As that implies, there’s a lot to learn if you want to speculate in this area. And I can’t urge you more strongly to take the time (and yes, spend the money) to educate yourself before plunging in.

The good news is that this is a very inefficient corner of the investing world. If you take the time and expend the skull sweat to research it, to subscribe to the best newsletters and attend the conferences where these mining/exploration companies are participating, then you can find some truly spectacular opportunities.

In a metals bull market based on long-term monetary fundamentals, as this one is, junior mining stocks can rise many times in value. It’s not unusual to find speculations that soar 20 or more times in value (as proven by the Gold Newsletter track record).

Of course, it’s also a risky area of investing, which is why you need to minimize those risks as much as possible.

You can do so by subscribing to Gold Newsletter...attending this evening’s webinar...and attending this year’s blockbuster New Orleans Investment Conference.

The timing is perfect for you to do all three.

All the best,
